Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons good olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic (6 cloves)
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large lemons
2 pounds (8- to 10-count) shrimp, peeled with the tails on
1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
4 slices country bread, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Melt the butter over low heat in a medium (10-inch) saute pan. Add the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cook over low heat for one minute. Off the heat, zest one of the lemons directly into the butter mixture.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp snugly in one layer in a large (12-inch) round ovenproof sauté pan (or 10 × 13-inch baking dish) with only the tails overlapping. Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp. Sprinkle with the sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Slice the ends off the zested lemon, cut five (1/4-inch-thick) slices, and tuck them among the shrimp. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, just until the shrimp are firm, pink, and cooked through. Cut the remaining lemon in half and squeeze the juice onto the shrimp. Serve hot with the toasted bread for dipping into the garlic butter.

GRILLED JUMBO SHRIMP WITH GARLIC-HERB BUTTER



Grilled Jumbo Shrimp With Garlic-Herb Butter image

A very simple recipe with just enough seasoning to enhance the flavor of the grilled shrimp without overpowering it. The best way to eat the shrimp is to peel them at the table and dip in extra butter sauce left over from the recipe. I have prepared the recipe with and without the rum - I do not find the rum to add anything special.

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley (optional)

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 shallot, finely chopped
16 jumbo shrimp, in the shell preferably with heads left on
salt & freshly ground black pepper
white rum, for sprinkling (optional)

Steps:

  • Light a grill or heat a grill pan.
  • Halve the shrimp lengthwise, leaving them attached 1 inch below the head (if the head is left on). Devein the shrimp and spread them open. Season with salt and pepper, then brush liberally with the herb butter.
  • Grill the shrimp over a medium-hot fire, shell side down, until lightly charred, about 1 minute.
  • Turn and grill the other side until lightly browned, about 40 seconds. Turn the shrimp again. Brush them liberally with more herb butter, sprinkle with rum and grill until barely cooked through and bubbling, about 1 minute longer.

CHEF JOHN'S GRILLED GARLIC AND HERB SHRIMP



Chef John's Grilled Garlic and Herb Shrimp image

This grilled garlic and herb shrimp recipe is very easy, IF you can just walk out into the backyard, and pick a handful of your own fresh, green sprigs. However, these are so amazingly delicious, if you don't have a garden, then do splurge and buy a bunch of all the herbs. And get the extra large shrimp so they can grill longer and get maximum caramelization.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Shrimp

Time 3h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon lemon zest
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh lemon thyme leaves
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
2 pounds extra large shrimp (16-20), peeled and deveined, tail left on
skewers
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pinch cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Place salt, lemon zest, and 3 cloves garlic in bowl of a mortar and pestle. Pound with the pestle until mixture begins to form a paste, about 2 minutes. Add chopped basil, parsley, oregano, and thyme and pound with pestle until mixture begin to come together, about 5 minutes.
  • Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into herb mixture. Grind together until mixture begins to form a sauce for marinating, about 1 minute. Pour in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Stir mixture with a spoon until mixture is thoroughly combined, adding additional olive oil as needed. Mixture should be fairly thick but pourable.
  • Place shrimp in a large bowl and mix in about 2/3 of the sauce, reserving 1/3 for serving. Stir until shrimp are evenly coated with the sauce, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining sauce.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Thread shrimp onto skewers (pierce each twice, once through large part of shrimp, once through small part). Place skewers on hot grill. Cook on each side until shrimp are bright pink and opaque and exterior is beginning to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer skewers to serving platter.
  • Pour remaining sauce into mixing bowl. Whisk in 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. Spoon sauce over shrimp. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Jumbo Shrimp: Choose large, fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture. If you can, buy shrimp that are already peeled and deveined to save time.
  • Butterfly the Shrimp: Butterflying the shrimp allows the marinade to penetrate more deeply, resulting in more flavorful shrimp. To butterfly the shrimp, simply use a sharp knife to cut a slit along the back of each shrimp, stopping just before you cut all the way through.
  • Garlic Herb Marinade: The garlic herb marinade is what gives these shrimp their amazing flavor. Make sure to marinate the shrimp for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, for the best results.
  • Grilling the Shrimp: When grilling the shrimp, make sure the grill is hot before you start cooking. This will help to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are just cooked through.

Conclusion:

These buttery garlic garden herb grilled jumbo shrimp are the perfect summer dish. They are easy to make, incredibly flavorful, and sure to be a hit at your next cookout. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as rice, pasta, or grilled vegetables.
