Servings: persons

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped onion roughly 1 small onion
2/3 cup beer
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 cup sweet chili sauce homemade or store bought
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro or 1 teaspoon dried cilantro
3 pinches cayenne pepper optional
1 pound shrimp *, peeled, deveined, and patted dry
cooked rice

1
In a large skillet, heat the oil and butter until melted. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the beer, tomato paste, sweet chili sauce, and cilantro. Bring to a boil. If you want more heat, add a few pinches of cayenne pepper.
2
Once boiling, add the shrimp in a single layer without crowding the pan. Cook for 3 minutes. Flip then cook another 3 minutes or until the shrimp is pink, cooked through, and curled up (you may need to cut a test one since it'll be hard to tell with the sauce). The timing may vary depending on your size of shrimp. Serve on top of rice or baked sweet potato.
