Blackstrap Molasses Shrimp

Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and add the minced garlic, cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add the pre‑cooked shrimp and stir briefly until they are warmed through, about 1 minute.

Toss in the green onions and sliced mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms soften and shrink, roughly 3–4 minutes.

Stir in the basil, white pepper, and a pinch of salt, mixing well.

Add half a can of beef base, two cups of blackstrap molasses, and one cup of brown sugar; increase the heat and cook for about two minutes until the sauce thickens.

Fold in half a cup of dried parsley, adjust seasoning with additional salt if needed, and serve immediately.
