Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

1 clove garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon dried basil

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

¼ cup butter

1 onion, minced

2 cups frozen cooked peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp

3 cups chopped leftover honey-baked, spiral-cut ham

1 ham bone

2 (15 ounce) cans black beans

1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes

1 cup coconut milk

Directions

Stir garlic, turmeric, chili powder, basil, and cayenne pepper together in a small saucepan; heat over medium heat until aromatic, about 1 minute. Melt butter into the mixture, add onion, and cook until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Scoop onion mixture from saucepan into a slow cooker, reserving as much butter in the saucepan as possible.

Increase heat under saucepan to medium-high heat. Saute frozen shrimp in hot butter until just firm, about 2 minutes; transfer mixture to slow cooker. Add ham, ham bone, black beans, and tomatoes to the slow cooker.

Cook on High until the ham on the bone is falling off, 4 to 6 hours (or on Low 6 to 8 hours).

Remove and discard ham bone, stir coconut milk into the mixture, continue cooking on Low until the coconut milk is warmed, about 30 minutes.
