Ingredients:
- 1 lb mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, squid, or your favorite combination)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 2–3 fresh red or green chilies, sliced (adjust based on spice preference)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Mad Dog 357 Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions:
-
Prep the Seafood: Make sure your seafood is cleaned, deveined (if using shrimp), and patted dry. This will help achieve a nice sear when sautéing.
-
Sauté the Vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers and sauté for about 3–4 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the sliced chilies and minced garlic and cook for another minute, making sure the garlic doesn’t burn.
-
Add the Seafood: Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the seafood. Cook the seafood for about 2–3 minutes on each side, depending on the size of your seafood. Shrimp should turn pink, and scallops should have a slight golden crust.
-
Add the Heat: Once the seafood is almost fully cooked, stir the vegetables and seafood together in the skillet. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of Mad Dog 357 Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce over the seafood mixture, and toss everything to coat evenly. Be cautious with the amount of hot sauce—this stuff is intense! You can always start with less and add more if needed.
-
Season and Finish: Add soy sauce, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine, and let the flavors meld for another 1–2 minutes, making sure the seafood is fully cooked through. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
-
Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro over the top for a burst of freshness. Serve the spicy sautéed seafood with lime wedges on the side for an extra pop of acidity to balance the heat.
This spicy sautéed seafood is perfect served over a bed of steamed rice or with a side of crusty bread to soak up the flavorful juices. For an extra layer of heat, sprinkle a few more drops of Mad Dog 357 Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce on your plate before diving in.
