Ingredients
Peach Glaze
- ¾ cup (240 g) peach preserves
- ¼ cup (56 g) bourbon
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Dijon coarse ground mustard
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Shrimp
- 1 pound large uncooked shrimp, peeled, deveined, tails-on
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 medium peaches, pitted, thinly sliced
- parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Peach Glaze
- In a medium bowl, combine peach preserves, bourbon, olive oil, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. This will yield approximately 1 ½ cups of glaze. Set aside while you prepare the shrimp and peaches.
Shrimp
- In a medium bowl, toss shrimp with salt.
- To a large skillet over high heat, add olive oil and butter. Once the oil is hot and the butter has melted, add the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until seared on the surface. Avoid overcooking to prevent a rubbery texture. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate and tent to keep warm.
- To the same skillet over medium-high heat, add the sliced peaches. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches start to soften and caramelize.
- Remove skillet from heat. Pour the peach-bourbon sauce over the peaches. Stir gently to combine, coating the peaches with the sauce. Return to heat to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce is heated through and thickens. Add seared shrimp.
- Garnish with parsley and serve.
