Best 3 Fried Green Tomatoes With Blackened Shrimp Recipes

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH BLACKENED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Make the remoulade: Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 48 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
• Meanwhile, make the shrimp and fried green tomatoes: Heat 1 cup of the oil in a medium high-sided saute pan over medium heat until it reaches 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer--or simply add a few grains of the cornmeal into the oil and if it sizzles, rises to top and turns golden brown quickly, the oil is ready.
• Meanwhile, put the cornmeal and the buttermilk into 2 separate shallow baking dishes and season each with salt and pepper. Place a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet.
• Dip each tomato slice in the buttermilk and let the excess drip off, then dredge in the cornmeal, gently pressing to help it adhere to both sides. Place on the wire rack and let sit for 5 minutes.
• While the tomatoes are resting, heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper (and some spice mix, if using). Add half of the shrimp in a single layer and cook until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Add the tomatoes to the high-sided saute pan in a single layer and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Remove to the wire rack and immediately season with salt.
• Top each tomato with 3 shrimp and some of the remoulade. Garnish with green onions or parsley.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH SHRIMP REMOULADE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together mustard, 1/2 cup olive oil, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, garlic, lemon juice, onion and 2 teaspoons of green onion. Season with paprika, pepper, cayenne pepper and parsley. Gently stir in the shrimp until evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
• In a shallow bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg with a fork. Spread the cornmeal out on a plate. Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add more if needed to maintain an even coating of oil in the bottom of the skillet.
• Dip the tomato slices in the buttermilk and egg, then dip into the cornmeal to coat thoroughly. Fry slices in the hot oil until golden brown on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and continue breading and frying the remaining tomato slices.
• To serve, arrange salad greens on six plates. Top each one with two slices of fried green tomato, then spoon some of the shrimp remoulade over the tomatoes and sprinkle with the remaining green onion to garnish.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH SHRIMP AND REMOULADE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the tomatoes: Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or cast iron skillet to 350 degrees F. Beat the eggs, milk, and hot sauce in a shallow dish. Put the flour and breadcrumbs in 2 separate shallow dishes. Dip the tomato slices in the flour, then the egg wash, and then the breadcrumbs. Transfer to the oil and fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and keep warm until ready to serve.
• For the shrimp: Bring the water to a boil and add the crab boil, onions, lemons, and hot sauce. Stir and add the shrimp. Boil until the shrimp turn pink. Peel.
• For the sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, mustard, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce.
• To serve: Line a plate with shredded lettuce. Add 2 slices fried green tomatoes. Top each tomato with 1 boiled shrimp. Fill a squeeze bottle with the remoulade sauce and drizzle decoratively.
