Best 5 Emerils Shrimp Clams Kale And Pasta Recipes

EMERIL'S SHRIMP, CLAMS, KALE AND PASTA

Steps:

• Set a large, 6-quart pot with water over high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, season with 1/4 cup of salt. Add the buccatini to the water and stir until the water returns to a boil, about 2 minutes.
• While the pasta cooks, set a large, 14-inch saute pan over medium-high heat and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onions, 2 teaspoons of the salt, the crushed red pepper flakes and the garlic to the pan. Cook stirring until the onions are slightly translucent, and the garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the kale to the pan and allow to wilt slightly, about 30 seconds. Add the Soppressata to the pan and cook for another 30 seconds. Add the clams and pasta water to the pan and cook, shaking the pan until the clams just begin to start opening, about, 2 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes and yellow tomatoes to the pan. Cook until the clams are nearly completely opened, about 2 minutes longer. Season the shrimp with the Essence and add them to the pan. Cook until they begin to turn pink, about 1 minute.
• Remove the pasta from the water and add it to the pan with the clams and shrimp. Stir the ingredients in the pan and drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and reseason with the remaining salt and fresh ground black pepper if necessary.
• Remove the pan from the heat and place on a large platter to serve. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over top of the past and serve.

SPAGHETTI WITH SHRIMP, KALE AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Fill a large pasta pot with water and bring to a boil. Add salt to taste and the kale. Boil 2 to 3 minutes, until tender, then using a Chinese skimmer, a strainer or a slotted spoon, transfer to a bowl of cold water (do not drain water in the pot; you'll use it for the pasta). Drain kale and a handful at a time, squeeze out excess water. Chop medium fine and set aside.
• (You can do this step while you are waiting for the water to come to a boil for the kale). Season shrimp with salt and pepper to taste. Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet or a wide saucepan and add shrimp. Do not stir for a minute, then turn shrimp and toss in the pan until seared on the edges, pink and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove to a plate.
• Turn heat down to medium and add garlic and hot pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 10 to 20 seconds (the pan will be quite hot), and stir in tomatoes with liquid, sugar, salt and oregano or thyme. Turn heat up to medium-high and stir often as tomatoes come to a brisk boil. Turn heat down to medium and cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have cooked down and taste very fragrant, about 10 minutes. Stir in kale and simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in shrimp or keep separate, remove from the heat and keep warm. If sauce seems dry you can add some cooking water from the pasta.
• Bring water in pot back to a boil and add spaghetti. Cook al dente, following timing instructions on the package but checking for doneness a minute before the indicated time. Set aside 1/2 cup of the cooking water from the pasta, in case you want to moisten the sauce more, drain pasta and toss with tomato and kale mixture. Add water from the pasta only if you think the mixture seems dry. Serve the pasta and top each serving with 3 shrimp if you haven't tossed the shrimp with the sauce. Pass crumbled feta or grated Parmesan at the table for sprinkling.

Steps:

• Pour tomatoes into a fine-mesh sieve set over a medium bowl. Shake to release as much juice as possible, then let tomatoes drain in sieve, collecting juices in bowl, until ready to use.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large Dutch oven or other large heavy pot over high. Add drained tomatoes and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to caramelize, about 12 minutes. Add wine and cook, scraping up browned bits, until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add collected tomato juices, oregano, red pepper, and 1 1/2 tsp. salt and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, 3 minutes less than package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking liquid.
• Working in batches, add kale to tomato sauce, stirring after each addition, until all kale is wilted. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer pasta to pot with sauce. Add shrimp, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally and adding pasta cooking liquid if needed to loosen sauce, until pasta is al dente, shrimp are cooked through, and everything is nicely coated in sauce, about 3 minutes.
• Divide pasta among bowls. Top with feta and drizzle with oil.
