Perfect Pan-Seared Shrimp With Garlic Butter image

from America's Test Kitchen TV show. Their note: The cooking times below are for 21/25 shrimp (that is, the size of the shrimp is such that there are 21 to 25 in 1 pound). If 21/25 shrimp are not available, adjust cooking times slightly. Either a nonstick or traditional skillet will work for this recipe, but a nonstick will simplify cleanup.

GARLIC BUTTER SMOKED SHRIMP



Garlic Butter Smoked Shrimp image

One of the quickest meals you can make in your smoker is shrimp, done in just 30 minutes. These shrimp are lightly seasoned to let the smoke flavor shine, but add more seasoning if desired. Because of the short smoke time, feel free to use a stronger-flavored wood such as hickory or mesquite. Serve with cheesy grits, rice, atop a salad, or as an appetizer with a remoulade sauce.

½ cup butter
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
3 thin strips lemon peel
5 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Place shrimp in a resealable plastic bag. Sprinkle with Cajun seasoning and drizzle with olive oil. Toss shrimp around in the bag to evenly distribute seasoning. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.

  • Place butter in a microwave-safe dish and cook on high until completely melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Stir in lemon peel, garlic, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
  • Arrange shrimp in even rows in a 8x10-inch aluminum pan. Place thyme sprigs between each row. Drizzle butter mixture over shrimp.

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.

Provided by WannaBcook5792

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)
1/4 cup finely chopped basil (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:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the butter with the parsley, basil, garlic and shallot and melt over low heat.
  • 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.
  • Serve at once.
