GRILLED SHRIMP TACOS WITH CREAMY CILANTRO SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, season shrimp with paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, and salt. Toss gently to combine.
• Using 2 bamboo or metal skewers, poke through the top and bottom of the shrimp and push down to the bottom of the skewer.
• Add 3 more shrimp to the same skewer and repeat until all of the shrimp are used.
• Right before you put the shrimp on the grill, brush each skewer with a generous amount of olive oil, to prevent sticking.
• Grill over high heat for 3 minutes, brush the top side with more olive oil, flip, and let cook for an additional 3 minutes.
• Remove from skewers & set aside for taco assembly.
• In a bowl, combine all creamy cilantro sauce ingredients. Stir well to combine.

ONE PAN PASTA WITH CREAMY SHRIMP AND PESTO SAUCE

Steps:

• In a 4- to 6-quart pan over high heat, bring about 3 quarts water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender to bite, 7 to 12 minutes. Drain and return to pan.
• Add shrimp, pesto, cream, broth, and dried tomatoes to pasta; stir over medium heat until hot and evenly incorporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

PASTA WITH SHRIMP AND CREAMY CHIPOTLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until slightly less than al dente, about 2 minutes less than package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high. Add fennel, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add corn and chipotles with sauce and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add shrimp; cook until just beginning to curl but not completely cooked, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Add pasta, reserved pasta water, and cream. Cook, stirring and shaking pan until pasta and shrimp are cooked through and a creamy sauce forms, 1 to 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper and serve, garnished with fennel fronds.

TILAPIA WITH A CREAMY SHRIMP & CRAB WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Optional Rice -- If you decide to serve this dish over the rice you should start the rice first as the fish and sauce don't take much time to make. Just follow package directions for whatever type of rice you are using. When the rice is finished cooking, toss in the lemon zest, fresh scallions and season with salt and pepper.
• Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the flour and just a little white wine and whisk well to combine the two. Then add the remaining white wine and bring to medium heat. Then add in the salt, pepper and cream and bring to a medium boil, cook just a minute and then reduce to medium low and let it simmer. The cream will naturally thicken as it simmers on low heat. You will add the shrimp and crab later. You want the sauce to simmer at least 5-7 minutes. This is just enough time to cook the fish.
• Fish -- Make sure your fish is NOT icy cold; it doesn't have to be room temperature, but just not right out of the refrigerator. Season each side of the fish well with salt and pepper. In a medium saute pan, I prefer non stick for this, add the butter and oil and bring to medium high heat. Saute the fish on each side until golden brown. Try not to move the fish once you put it in the pan until the first side is golden brown. Cooking time will vary depending on the type of fish and thickness. Tilapia takes just 2-3 minutes on the first side and even quicker on the second side.
• Sauce -- When you start the fish is a good time to add the shrimp and crab to your sauce. Bring the sauce back up to medium heat and add the shrimp. Cook just 1-2 minutes and then stir in the crab. Don't stir too much, you don't want to break up the crab. Add the lemon juice, zest, parsley and dill and then turn off the heat -- the sauce is done.
• Serve -- For each plate, add 3/4-1 cup of the rice, top with one of the fish fillets and top with the sauce. Garnish with a fresh lemon slice. ENJOY!

FISH WITH CREAMY DIJON SHRIMP SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Thaw fish if using frozen. Allow fish (either fresh or frozen) to come to room temperature. This makes for less time over the heat, helping to keep fish moist. Rinse and pat dry and lay on paper towels.
• 2. Place 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1/2 tsp each of onion salt, dried marjoram and dried thyme in a small bowl. Cover with a paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to a minute, until butter is melted.
• 3. Brush top side of each fish fillet with half of the melted butter mixture and set aside.
• 4. In a medium saucepan, heat enough water to cover the shrimp and bring the water to a boil. Add the shrimp. Once the water comes back to a boil, cook the shrimp for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes, just until they are done (don't overcook). Remove pan from heat and set aside. (the water will help keep the shrimp warm...so it is very important not to over cook the shrimp).
• 5. In a small saucepan, combine the sour cream, flour, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and 1/4 tsp. thyme. Stir until smooth. Add chicken broth, stirring until well mixed. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Keep warm over very low heat, stirring occasionally. (When I first put this over the heat, I begin heating up my skillet for my fish, and the fish cooks while my sauce is coming up to a boil and thickening).
• 6. While Dijon sauce is coming up to a boil, heat a large skillet coated lightly with cooking spray over medium heat. Add remaining 2 TBS butter. Once butter is melted, add fish fillets, basted side down, with the thickest portion toward the center of your pan. Baste the top with the remainder of the basting sauce. Depending on your fish choice and its thickness, cook the fish for 2 to 4 minutes, just until a nice light brown color. Carefully turn the fish over (with the thickest portion still in the center of your pan) and cook another 2 to 4 minutes, just until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove to serving plates. (My tilapia fillets were 1/2 inch thick at the most and about 4 ounces each. I cooked 2 minutes on one side, 3 minutes on the other and they were perfect.)
• 7. Drain shrimp and stir into the Dijon sauce. Top each fillet with 6 shrimp each and some of the sauce. ENJOY!

SHRIMP AND PASTA WITH CREAMY GOAT CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil pasta in water until al dente. In a ziplock bag, combine shrimp through tomatoes and marinate in refrigerator for an hour. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat in a saute pan and cook mushrooms until they release their liquid and are browned. Set aside. Keeping the same saute pan at medium-high, add shrimp and marinade ingredients and saute until cooked through, about six minutes. Set aside. In the now empty pan, turn heat to high and deglaze with wine, scraping up any browned bits. Add chicken stock and reduce the liquids by half. Slowly stir in the goat cheese until melted and smooth. Add the butter at the end, and melt. Add the mushrooms and shrimp back to the sauce and warm through. When just about finished, add the drained pasta and toss to combine. Add a little bit of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick or doesn't cling to the pasta.

PAN-SEARED SHRIMP WITH ROMESCO SAUCE, CREAMY GRITS, AND GREENS

Steps:

• For the grits: Place a saucepan over high heat with the chicken stock, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, add the grits, and stir with a whisk. Once the grits come to a simmer, add the cream, again reduce the heat to low, and continue to cook until the grits just start to thicken, about 8 minutes. Add the cheese to the grits, taste for seasoning, turn the heat off, and allow the cheese to melt into the grits. Stir in the chopped parsley. Taste and season with salt, if needed. Cover and keep warm.
• For the greens: In a medium pan over medium heat, heat the oil and saute the mustard greens until starting to wilt, about 1 minute. Stir in the chile flakes and cook 1 minute. Add the stock and bring to a simmer. Cook until the greens are just tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
• For the shrimp: Heat a saute pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon butter, allowing the butter to melt.
• Season the shrimp with salt and pepper and then add to the pan. Stir the shrimp while cooking. Cook until bright red, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Once the shrimp are cooked, add the wine to deglaze the pan, allowing the wine to simmer for 1 minute until reduced.
• Turn the heat off and add 2 to 3 tablespoons Romesco sauce, stirring in to coat the shrimp. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter to finish.
• To plate, spoon the grits onto a plate, top with mustard greens, and top with shrimp.
• Grind the almonds in a food processor until finely ground but not pureed. Add the bread, vinegar, tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and paprika to the processor and grind together briefly until evenly pureed. With the motor running, add the olive oil slowly until the sauce is thickened. Taste and season with salt.
