Portuguese Shrimp Mozambique Recipe

4 tablespoon butter

1 cup chopped onion

8 cloves garlic (minced)

3 packets Sazon seasoning (like Goya Azafran)

12 ounce pale lager beer

2 tablespoons hot sauce (If you can find African Peri Peri Sauce, buy it!)

1 ½ pounds large raw shrimp (peeled)

Salt and pepper

Parsley for garnish

Set a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the butter, onions, and garlic. Sauté for 3 to 5 minutes to soften the onions, stirring regularly.
Once the onions are soft, add in the Sazon seasoning packets. Mix the seasoning into the onions. Then pour in the beer and hot sauce. Simmer the sauce for 5 to 8 minutes to reduce and thicken.
Once the sauce has reduced by half, add in the raw shrimp. Stir well and allow the shrimp to simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Then remove from heat.
Serve over rice with a sprinkling of parsley, or with flatbread on the side.
