step-by-step

instructions

Cook Along

1 Cook the barley

Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, add the barley and cook, uncovered, 28 to 30 minutes, or until tender. Turn off the heat. Drain thoroughly and return to the pot.

2 Prepare the ingredients

Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Remove any husks and silks from the corn; cut the kernels off the cobs. Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and hollow green tops. In a bowl, combine the sour cream, half the spice blend, and 1 teaspoon of water; season with salt and pepper. To make the glaze, in a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, 2 tablespoons of water, and as much of the hot sauce as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be.

3 Cook the corn

In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the corn kernels and sliced white bottoms of the scallions; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until softened (be careful, as the corn may pop as it cooks). Transfer to a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Cover with foil to keep warm. Wipe out the pan.

4 Cook & glaze the shrimp

Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned shrimp in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly opaque. Add the glaze (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimp are coated, opaque, and cooked through. Turn off the heat.

5 Finish the barley & serve your dish

To the pot of cooked barley, add the cooked corn, remaining spice blend, and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished barley topped with the glazed shrimp (including any glaze from the pan). Garnish with the seasoned sour cream and sliced green tops of the scallions. Enjoy!
