How to serve

We’ve cooked tofu in it. It’s great on fish. We’ve done shrimp, and drizzled it over veggies. Over a baked potato. I bet you could add a couple spoonfuls to chili to make it amazing!

For a great oven baked shrimp, take a look at these easy instructions.

When we cook fish with this sauce, we grilled the fish to perfection, and poured about 3 tablespoons of sauce over the 2 fish fillets. And, I’ll be posting a recipe for making shrimp in this Spicy Smoke Sauce soon.

recipe inspiration

This Spicy Smoke Sauce is based on my Spicy Cajun Cod recipe.

How to easily measure

I like to put the dried ingredients in the recipe first so that you can keep your measuring spoons clean.

You’ll also notice that in the recipe I call for vegetable broth paste. I use Better than Bouillion paste now most of the time (unless I have homemade).

It’s easy; it’s tasty; it lasts a long time in the fridge, and you can get an organic one. If you haven’t tried it yet, give it a go. The links are my Amazon affiliate links, so I might earn a little money if you click and buy some. I’ve also been told that the mushroom one from them is great!
