Ingredients
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups sliced yellow onion
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 teaspoon tandoori masala spice blend
Salt to taste
Directions
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine the tandoori masala with a pinch of salt and mix well.
Sprinkle the tandoori spice blend evenly over all the shrimp and toss gently to coat each piece thoroughly.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the sliced onions to the hot oil and sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and develop light golden edges.
Add the spiced shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shrimp begins to turn opaque and release their aromatics.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes and stir well to combine. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, until the shrimp are fully opaque and have reached an internal temperature of 145°F, and the tomatoes are just beginning to blister.
Taste and adjust salt as needed. Serve immediately over rice, cauliflower rice, or with warm naan bread.
