Cumin Scented Shrimp Scampi

Cumin Scented Shrimp Scampi

1 large spaghetti squash
1 Tbs. Kerrygold butter
1 lb. frozen, pre-cooked shrimp (fresh is great too, if you have amazing coastal access)
3/4 tsp. dried oregano
2 tsp. cumin seeds
sea salt and pepper
juice of 1 lime
1 bunch of cilantro, chopped

 

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 

Halve the squash and scoop out the seeds. Place the two halves back together and wrap in foil. Bake for 60-90 minutes, or until super soft. Cool. Scoop out the squash “noodles” and reserve.

 

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add shrimp and all seasonings. Sauté until golden brown. Finish with a bit of lime juice.

 

Serve shrimp, divided among 3 plates, over squash, and garnished with cilantro.

 

Scampi perfection.
