Provided by Dewski

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
¾ cup olive oil, or more if needed
6 cloves garlic, pressed
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound dry fettuccine pasta
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 pound uncooked shrimp - peeled, deveined, and tails removed
2 tablespoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®), or to taste
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, or more if desired

Steps:

  • Separate the asparagus tips from the rest of the cut pieces, and set the tips aside. Heat 3/4 cup of olive oil over medium heat. Cook and stir the garlic in the hot oil until it begins to turn brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cut pieces of asparagus (not the tips), and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir the asparagus until tender but still bright green, about 10 minutes, then add the asparagus tips. Cook and stir for 5 more minutes.
  • While the asparagus is cooking, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the fettuccine, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink, return to the pot, and drizzle 2 teaspoons of olive oil over the pasta.
  • Remove the asparagus from the skillet with a slotted spoon, leaving oil in skillet, and set the asparagus aside. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels, and place in the hot skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with the seafood seasoning, and cook and stir the shrimp until they are pink and no longer translucent. Return the asparagus to the skillet, and cook the shrimp and asparagus until thoroughly heated, 2 to 3 more minutes.
  • Stir the shrimp and asparagus into the cooked fettuccine, and toss with shredded Parmesan cheese. The olive oil serves as the sauce, so add more as needed to generously coat the pasta, shrimp and asparagus.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb shrimp, medium to large, peeled and deveined
1 pinch black pepper, to taste
1 lemon
4 tablespoons olive oil or 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 medium garlic cloves, sliced thinly
3/4 lb asparagus, tough ends snapped off and cut into 2 inch lengths (about 2 cups)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Place shrimp on paper towels and dry very well.
  • Sprinkle shrimp with a bit of the pepper.
  • Using a vegetable peeler, peel off strips of the lemon peel and then cut the strips into very thin long pieces; be sure to peel only the yellow part of the peel, not the bitter white part.
  • Cut lemon in half and juice it into a small dish, removing seeds.
  • Heat a deep 12 inch skillet (preferably NOT non-stick) over medium high heat for 1 minute.
  • Add 2 Tbsp of the oil and heat until it's shimmering hot -- just a few seconds.
  • Add the shrimp in a single layer and do not disturb it; let cook for about 2 minutes until browned.
  • Turn shrimp over and brown the other side, about 1 1/2 minutes, then transfer to a plate. Shrimp should not be cooked through.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and add garlic, stirring for 30 seconds.
  • Add asparagus, lemon zest strips, red pepper flakes and cook, stirring for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add chicken broth and cover, simmering for 1-2 minutes until asparagus is almost done.
  • Stir cornstarch with 1 Tbsp water and stir into the pan.
  • Add shrimp back to the pan and cook another 1-2 minutes until done.
  • Stir in 1 Tbsp lemon juice, then taste and add more juice and pepper if needed.

HOT-SAUCE SHRIMP



Hot-Sauce Shrimp image

So much more than a condiment for your morning eggs, hot sauce can add kick to dips, soups, marinades, sauces and more. Because most include vinegar and salt in addition to chiles, all hot sauce needs to become a silky pan sauce is fat. That's the approach used in this super-quick recipe, which tastes like a cross between Buffalo chicken wings and chile shrimp. After charring some scallions in the skillet, shrimp are cooked until plump and pink, then both are tossed with butter and hot sauce until glossy. Because hot sauces vary greatly in terms of heat, start with one tablespoon, then add more as you wish. If it's too spicy for you, add more butter, or serve it with rice, crusty bread, beer, yogurt or ranch dressing to cut the heat.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined or shell-on
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 tablespoon hot sauce, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons neutral oil (like vegetable or grapeseed), plus more as needed
6 scallions, trimmed, white and green parts cut crosswise into 1-inch segments

Steps:

  • Pat the shrimp dry and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Put the butter and hot sauce in a large bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet over high. Add the scallions and cook until softened and browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the scallions to the bowl with the butter and hot sauce.
  • Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, adding more oil if the pan is dry. Flip and cook until opaque all the way through, 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Transfer the shrimp and any juices to the butter, hot sauce and scallions. Toss vigorously until the butter is melted and the shrimp is glossy. Taste, and add more hot sauce and salt as needed.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes.
  • Choose the right asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are bright green and have tight, closed tips. Avoid spears that are wilted, limp, or have brown spots.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp and asparagus, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly and the asparagus from getting tender.
  • Cook the shrimp until they're pink and opaque: The shrimp are done cooking when they're pink and opaque all the way through. Don't overcook them, or they'll become tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: Hot garlic shrimp and asparagus is best served immediately, while the shrimp are still hot and the asparagus is still tender.

Conclusion:

Hot garlic shrimp and asparagus is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and it can be on the table in under 30 minutes. The shrimp are cooked in a flavorful garlic sauce, and the asparagus is roasted until it's tender and slightly charred. Serve it with rice or noodles, and you have a complete meal that everyone will love.
