Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large turnip
3 beets with greens attached
6 medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 small papaya
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 Roma tomato, sliced

Steps:

  • Wash and peel the turnip. Put it into a medium pot, cover it with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring it to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes; set aside. While the turnip is cooking, wash and peel the beets. Remove the greens, wash them well, and set aside. Put the beets into the boiling water and cook until tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove and set them aside.
  • Slice the papaya in half, scoop out and discard the seeds. Carefully scoop out the fruit and reserve the shells. Coarsely chop the papaya and put it into a small bowl.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beet greens and 1/2 the garlic. Cook the beet greens until wilted, about 5 to 7 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Remove and set aside. Add the remaining butter, olive oil, and garlic to the pan and cook the shrimp until they are pink and done, about 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add the shrimp to the papaya and mix well.
  • Fill the reserved papaya shells with the shrimp mixture and put them onto plates. Serve with slices of turnips and beets, the beet greens, and slices of tomato.

SHRIMP AND PAPAYA SALAD



Shrimp and Papaya Salad image

This summer salad can make a light but satisfying lunch or supper. You buy the shrimp already cooked. Serve the salad with a small bowl of broth and some buttered warm crackers. For something sweet to finish this light meal, I love to get a good thick bar of chocolate, break it into chunks and serve it with iced coffee topped with whipped cream.

Categories     main-dish

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds cooked bay shrimp
1 papaya
1 head butter or Boston lettuce
A few sprigs parsley
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Salt

Steps:

  • Preparing the Shrimp
  • Rinse the cooked shrimp under cold running water, pat dry with paper towels, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate.
  • Preparing the Papaya
  • Cut the papaya in half lengthwise, and 1) use the spoon to scoop out and discard the seeds. Peel off the skin with a paring knife and discard, then place the papaya cut side down on a cutting board. 2) Use a sharp knife to cut the fruit lengthwise into slices 1/2 inch wide, then slice those pieces crosswise into 1/2-inch chunks. Remember that a ripe papaya is fragile, and will turn to mush if harshly handled.
  • Finishing the Salad
  • Rinse the lettuce leaves and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Rinse the parley and pat dry; remove the stems and discard. Finely chop the leaves.
  • Arrange 2 or 3 lettuce leaves on each serving plate, making them into a bed for the salad.
  • Stir the milk into the mayonnaise to thin it.
  • Distribute the shrimp and papaya onto the 4 plates. Sprinkle on salt, drizzle the dressing over each serving, and scatter some chopped parsley on top. Serve.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons mustard powder, preferably Coleman's
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons rice vinegar or plum wine vinegar
1/2 cup honey, plus more as needed
1 1/2 pounds papaya, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
Salt
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste
24 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
Cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Lime wedges for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Start a charcoal or gas grill or broiler; make sure the fire is very hot, and adjust the rack so that it is as close to the heat source as possible.
  • 2. Meanwhile, make the papaya mustard. Whisk together the mustards and vinegar in a small bowl until the mustard powder is dissolved; let sit while you proceed.
  • Put the honey in a small heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula, until the honey bubbles, thickens, and darkens slightly, about 7 minutes.
  • 3. Turn the heat to medium and add the papaya. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the papaya water evaporates and the mixture becomes mushy, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the mustard mixture. Season to taste with salt and lime juice and set aside.
  • 4. Brush the shrimp with the oil, then sprinkle with salt and cayenne. Grill for 2 or 3 minutes per side, turning once. Serve the shrimp, garnished with the cilantro,with the papaya mustard and lime wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe papaya. Look for papaya that is yellow or orange in color and slightly soft to the touch.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the shrimp in a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. Cook them just until they are pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • The red pepper vinaigrette is a great way to add a pop of flavor to the dish. You can adjust the amount of vinegar and oil to taste.
  • This dish is best served immediately after cooking. The shrimp will become tough if they are reheated.

Conclusion:

Papaya glazed shrimp with red pepper vinaigrette is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The sweet and tangy glaze, combined with the fresh and crisp red pepper vinaigrette, creates a flavor combination that is sure to please everyone. This dish is also a good source of protein and healthy fats, making it a great option for a healthy and satisfying meal.
