Ingredients

2 servings

1 lb . shrimp
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt (start here, add more as necessary)
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (add to taste – it’ll make it spicy!)
1 tablespoon butter
a drizzle of honey (to taste – 1 tsp to 1 tablespoon)
2 peaches, pitted and sliced (about 2 cups)
half an English cucumber, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
half a shallot, thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
2 –3 teaspoons olive oil
1 lime, juiced and zested (about 1 tablespoon juice, 1 teaspoon zest)
salt and pepper to taste
mint leaves (about 2 packed tablespoons)
2 –3 teaspoons honey to finish (I like hot honey!)
1 avocado, cubed (optional)

Steps

Toss everything together for the peach salad. Prep anything else you might serve this with (I like rice).
Toss the shrimp with the spices.
Heat a drizzle of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes per side.
Add a knob of butter and a drizzle of honey at the end of cooking to toss with the shrimp and pull up some of the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. This will also make the shrimp saucy, glazey, and delicious.
Plate the shrimp over rice with a big scoop of that peach salad! So yum.
