Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 almost ripe peaches, peeled and diced
1/2 cup white wine
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish, drained
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided

ROASTED SPICED SHRIMP ON WILTED SPINACH



Roasted Spiced Shrimp on Wilted Spinach image

Categories     Ginger     Appetizer     Roast     Low Fat     Quick & Easy     Shrimp     Spinach     Spring     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4 as a first course

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large shrimp
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 pound spinach (about 1 bunch)
2 scallions
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon grated peeled fresh gingerroot
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Accompaniment: lime wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Leaving shells intact, pull legs off shrimp and with a sharp knife halve shrimp lengthwise. Arrange shrimp, shell sides down, in one layer in a shallow baking pan. In a small bowl stir together chili powder and salt and sprinkle evenly over shrimp. Shrimp may be prepared up to this point 3 hours ahead and chilled, covered.
  • Discard stems from spinach and diagonally cut scallions into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Drizzle shrimp with lime juice and roast in middle of oven until just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • In a large nonstick skillet bring water with gingerroot to a simmer over moderate heat and add spinach. Cook spinach, stirring, until slightly wilted, about 20 seconds. Remove skillet from heat and immediately stir in scallions and oil until combined well. Season spinach with salt and pepper.
  • Mound spinach in center of each of 4 plates and arrange shrimp halves around it. Serve shrimp and spinach with lime wedges.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Shrimp: Opt for large or jumbo shrimp with their shells removed and deveined. Avoid any shrimp that has an unpleasant odor or discoloration.
  • Marinating the Shrimp: Marinate the shrimp in olive oil, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, and salt for at least 15 minutes to infuse flavor. This step also helps prevent the shrimp from drying out during grilling.
  • Grilling the Shrimp: Heat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are opaque and slightly charred. Avoid overcooking, as it will toughen the shrimp.
  • Preparing the Wilted Spinach: To achieve perfectly wilted spinach, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add garlic and cook until fragrant, then add baby spinach and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes.
  • Searing the Peaches: Cut the peaches into wedges and sear them in a skillet with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until caramelized. This step adds a sweet and smoky flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

This Grilled Shrimp with Wilted Spinach and Peaches recipe is a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The succulent shrimp, tender spinach, and sweet caramelized peaches create a harmonious dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The vibrant colors and fresh ingredients make it a visually appealing dish that is sure to impress your guests.
