Ingredients

  • 1 20 oz package SeaPak® Family Size Butterfly Shrimp
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles
  • 1 pinch cumin
  • 3 1/2 cups shredded Mexican-style blend cheese
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro

Directions

Bake butterfly shrimp according to package directions and keep warm. In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, add the butter, garlic, and jalapeño. Cook for 1 minute. Stir in flour until completely combined. Whisk in the milk and continue to whisk until the sauce is thick (approximately 5 minutes). Stir in diced tomatoes and cumin. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup of cheese at a time (stirring continually until melted before adding more cheese). Once the final cup of cheese is melted, stir in the cilantro. Serve hot with shrimp for dipping.
