BROILED SHRIMP WITH GARLIC BUTTER



Broiled Shrimp with Garlic Butter image

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.

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.

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, main course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 garlic clove
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
lots of black pepper
1 1/2 pounds peeled shrimp
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Turn on the broiler, and put the rack close to heat.
  • Mash 1 garlic clove with 1 teaspoon salt until it forms a paste.
  • Add to it 1/2 teaspoon cayenne, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil and lots of black pepper.
  • Rub paste all over 1 1/2 pounds peeled shrimp.
  • Broil, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Tips:

  • Selecting the Right Shrimp: Opt for large, fresh shrimp with a firm texture and a briny aroma. Avoid shrimp that appears slimy or has an off smell.
  • Proper Deveining: Devein the shrimp to remove the digestive tract, which can be gritty and unappetizing. Use a sharp paring knife to make a shallow incision along the back of the shrimp and gently remove the dark vein.
  • Seasoning Simplicity: Keep the seasoning simple yet flavorful. A combination of garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper is a classic choice that allows the natural shrimp flavor to shine through.
  • Broiling Technique: Preheat the broiler to ensure even cooking. Place the shrimp in a single layer on a lightly oiled baking sheet, leaving some space between them for optimal heat circulation.
  • Cooking Time Precision: Broil the shrimp for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on their size. Keep a close eye to prevent overcooking, as shrimp can quickly become rubbery.
  • Watch for Color Change: The shrimp are cooked when they turn from a translucent gray to an opaque pink or white color. Overcooked shrimp will curl up and become tough.
  • Garnish and Serve: For a visually appealing presentation, garnish the broiled shrimp with chopped parsley, lemon wedges, or a sprinkle of paprika. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Broiled shrimp is an incredibly easy and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or as part of a seafood platter. By following these tips, you can achieve perfectly cooked shrimp with a succulent texture and delicious taste. Whether you prefer a simple seasoning or a more elaborate marinade, this versatile recipe allows you to customize the flavors to your liking. So, gather your ingredients, heat up your broiler, and prepare to indulge in this outrageously good broiled shrimp dish that will impress your taste buds and leave you craving more. Happy cooking!
