Old Bay Shrimp Sauté

Instructions

1. Combine the lemon juice, Tabasco and Worcestershire in a small bowl and set aside.
2. Heat 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large pan over medium-high heat until foamy. Add the shrimp, sprinkle with the Old Bay Seasoning and sauté until pink and opaque, about 3 minutes total. Add the lemon juice mixture, thyme leaves and the remaining tablespoon of butter and toss until the shrimp are well coated. Season with freshly ground black pepper, remove from the heat.
3. To serve, plate individual servings of White Rice with Bacon (see below), brown rice or plain steamed white rice, top with a portion of shrimp and spoon some of the pan juices over the top.

White Rice with Bacon:

1. Cook 4 servings of long grain white rice according to package directions.
2. While the rice is cooking, cut 3 slices of thick-cut bacon into 1/2-inch pieces. Fry until crisp, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and drain all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the pan.
3. Add 1/2 cup of finely chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent. Add to the rice along with the bacon. Combine well and season to taste with freshly ground black pepper.
