Shrimpin’ Dippin’ Broth

Wow. Anita and I both agree, shrimpin’ dippin broth is one of the best dishes we’ve ever made. Of course the shrimp are great by themselves. But it’s the dipping broth that is beyond fantastic.You could just drink it by itself, but it’s best sopped up with a warm baguette or poured over rice. This reminds me of a shrimp boil but it is oh so much better.

The rich combination of Worcestershire sauce, bouillon and clam juice are great. A light squeeze of lemon adds a fresh citrus kick. Shrimpin’ dippin’ broth is a meal you’ll make over and over. And it’s easy to throw together too!

Ingredients

For the broth

• ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 cube chicken bouillon
• 8 ounces clam juice
• ¼ cup water
• ¼ cup white wine
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• ¼ teaspoon sugar

For the shrimp

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• ½ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
• ½ tablespoon garlic minced
• 1 pound shrimp medium-sized, peeled and deveined
• 1 baguette
• 1 cup white rice cooked, warmed
• Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

For the broth

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the pepper, Cajun seasoning and garlic. Stir and let cook for 5 minutes.
• Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to keep warm until you are ready to serve.

For the shrimp

• Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the Worcestershire sauce, pepper, Cajun seasoning, garlic, and shrimp. Stir and cook shrimp until pink and done, 2-3 minutes.
