CAJUN-STYLE BROILED SHRIMP



Cajun-Style Broiled Shrimp image

Shrimp, the most versatile seafood, is now the most popular in America, and there is no wrong way to eat it. Wild shrimp from the Pacific or the Gulf of Mexico is a treat if you can find it. Fresh local shrimp from Maine or the Carolinas is an even rarer gem. (These are all preferable from a sustainability perspective.) A vast majority, of course, is farmed and frozen. If you buy it ''individually quick frozen'' in resealable bags, you can take out only as many as you want and thaw them by leaving the shrimp in the fridge for 24 hours or running them under cool water for an hour or less. Here, it is made Cajun with cayenne, paprika and garlic and quickly broiled.

BROILED SHRIMP WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chopped shallots
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/2 lemon, juiced
Fine sea salt, to taste
24 uncooked large shrimp, shell and tail on
1/2 cup Fish Fumet, recipe follows, or water
2 pounds heads and bones from black bass, red snapper or halibut
Cold water
2 tablespoons corn oil
1 medium onion, peeled and very thinly sliced
1/4 small fennel bulb, very thinly sliced
1 leek, very thinly sliced
15 white peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 sprig fresh Italian parsley
1 bay leaf
1 cup dry white wine
3 cups water

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Place the butter in a small bowl and stir in the garlic, shallots, parsley, lemon juice and salt. Cut the shrimp in half lengthwise, leaving them attached at the tail. Spread the shrimp open and arrange them in a shallow, oval flameproof casserole. Top the shrimp with generous dabs of the butter mixture and pour fumet or water into the dish. Broil the shrimp until they are cooked through, about 4 minutes. Arrange the shrimp in a line across 4 plates, so that the tail of each shrimp fits inside the shrimp in front of it. Whisk the liquid in the casserole dish and pour it over the shrimp. Serve immediately.
  • Remove the gills and eyes from the fish or have your fish store do it. Cut the heads and bones across into 4-inch pieces. Put them in a shallow pan and cover with cold water. Let stand for 1 hour, changing the water twice. Drain. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, fennel, leek, peppercorns, salt, parsley and bay leaf. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook until the vegetables are softened but not browned, about 4 minutes. Add the fish bones and cook, stirring from time to time, until the bones and any flesh around the bones turn from translucent to white, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and water and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, skimming off the foam as it rises to the top. Remove from the heat and let rest for 10 minutes. Strain the fumet through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing firmly on the solids to extract as much of the flavorful liquid as possible. If you have more than 3 cups of fumet, place the liquid in a clean saucepan and boil until reduced to 3 cups. Store, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Tips:

  • Choose the right shrimp: For broiling, medium or large shrimp are best. Smaller shrimp can overcook easily.
  • Thaw frozen shrimp properly: If using frozen shrimp, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for about 30 minutes.
  • Remove the shell and devein the shrimp: This will make them easier to eat and help the marinade or seasoning to penetrate the shrimp.
  • Marinate or season the shrimp: This will add flavor and help to prevent the shrimp from drying out. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, or you can get creative with your favorite herbs and spices.
  • Broil the shrimp: Preheat your broiler to high. Place the shrimp on a lightly oiled baking sheet or grill pan. Broil the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and slightly charred.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Broiled shrimp are best served immediately, while they are still hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Broiling shrimp is a quick and easy way to cook this delicious and versatile seafood. With just a few simple steps, you can have a flavorful and healthy meal that's perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy seafood dish, give broiled shrimp a try. You won't be disappointed!
