QUICK SAUTEED SHRIMP IN TOMATO GARLIC SAUCE



Quick Sauteed Shrimp in Tomato Garlic Sauce image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 scallions, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, sliced into thin slivers
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup clam juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon sugar, optional
16 colossal shrimp, shelled and deveined with tail on (about 1 1/4 pounds)

Steps:

  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, add the olive oil, scallions, garlic, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook until the greens of the scallions are wilted and darkened with the oil and the garlic is tender and slightly golden, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, season with salt and cook while stirring until the tomatoes are softened, about 2 minutes. Add the clam juice and lemon juice, bring to a light simmer and stir. Taste, and if the tomatoes and lemon juice are too tart, add sugar and stir.
  • Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper and add to the pan. Cook on 1 side until the shrimp begins to turn opaque and curl slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Then toss and cook until they just begin to turn pink on the other side, 1 to 2 more minutes. (Shrimp cooks fast and there's a thin line between done and overdone; the best rule is to remove the pan from the heat as they begin to reach the finish line. Continue tossing and the heat of the pan will continue to cook them until done.) Serve warm or chilled.

At a church buffet luncheon,this was served by a friend, Jo-Ann, and I loved it. Every so often I would tell her how much I enjoyed it, and she'd reply: It's so EASY, and it disappears whenever I bring it to a potluck. She shared her recipe with me. I have recently made it, and I made three large portions to be served with...

Steps:

TOMATO ASPIC



Tomato Aspic image

Categories     Tomato     Simmer     Boil

Yield makes eight to ten 8-ounces servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 pounds tomatoes (about 8), cored and quartered
1 onion, chopped
4 celery stalks, chopped
4 bay leaves
4 garlic cloves, smashed
5 whole cloves
3/4 cup water
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 sprig fresh basil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin

Steps:

  • Lightly grease eight to ten 8-ounce individual molds or custard cups.
  • Place the tomatoes, onion, celery, bay leaves, garlic, and cloves in a large saucepan with 1/2 cup of the water and stir to mix. Bring to a low boil and simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally and skimming the rising foam as needed. Remove from the heat and strain, discarding the bay leaves and cloves, then pushing the pulp through a sieve to make 4 to 5 cups of juice. Add the lemon zest and juice, sugar, vinegar, basil, and salt and pepper to taste and stir to combine.
  • Return the juice to the saucepan, bring to a boil, and reduce by about 2 cups, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to a low boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Combine the gelatin with the remaining 1/4 cup water in a large bowl and stir to mix. Pour the hot juice over the gelatin mixture and stir until the gelatin dissolves. Remove the basil and place the pan of juice in the water bath to fully cool, stirring regularly for even coloring and texture.
  • Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared molds, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, until the aspic sets up and is firm.
  • To unmold the aspics, run a knife around the outside edge of the molds and set in a pan of warm water for 15 to 20 seconds to loosen. Invert onto a plate or platter and serve or refrigerate until ready to serve.
