Ingredients

1 lbs of peeled and deveined shrimp
1 1/2 tbsp Spiceology’s Black Magic seasoning
Olive oil, as needed
1 lemon
2 cups of chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 cup milk
1/2 coarse cornmeal
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp parm, plus more for garnish
Parsley and cherry tomatoes for garnish.

Directions

In a medium pot, bring your stock and milk with a pinch of salt to a boil. Whisk in your cornmeal to avoid clumping and cook on low heat for 20 mins, adding a small amount of stock if it starts to get a bit dry. Once cooked add in your butter and Parmesan. Set aside
In a medium bowl, add your shrimp, a glug of olive oil and your Black Magic seasoning, mix.
Heat a large pan over medium heat with some oil. Add your shrimp and 1/2 a lemon and blacken (not burn) on both sides, roughly 4-5 mins of cooking total.
Plate your polenta and add your shrimp on top, garnishing with more parm, parsley, cherry tomatoes sliced and a sprinkle of black magic for a quick bowl of warmth.
