Instrucțiuni

Make the Szechuan chile–bourbon butter: Process butter, chile crisp, bourbon, maple syrup, lemon zest, kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic in a food processor until well combined and garlic is minced, about 30 seconds, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Transfer to a small bowl, and set aside.

Make the shrimp: Toss together shrimp, kosher salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl until evenly coated. Heat a large skillet over medium-high; add oil, and swirl to coat skillet. Add shrimp in a single layer; cook, undisturbed, until bottom sides turn pink-orange with golden-brown spots, about 1 minute. Flip shrimp, and cook for 30 seconds.

Add garlic and 6 tablespoons Szechuan chile–bourbon butter, or more if desired. (Reserve remaining butter for another use.) Cook, shaking and tossing occasionally to disperse melted butter, until shrimp are cooked through and evenly coated in butter, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon zest and juice. Season to taste with flaky sea salt, and serve immediately.
