GINGER-GARLIC SHRIMP WITH COCONUT MILK



Ginger-Garlic Shrimp With Coconut Milk image

Fresh ingredients and bold condiments do the heavy lifting here, creating a fragrant 20-minute meal that will lure people into the kitchen, wondering what smells so good. Inspired by elements of Indian and Thai curries, the shrimp are coated in ginger, garlic and turmeric, then seared and braised in a combination of coconut milk and soy sauce. Spinach is stirred in for a bit of green, but you can substitute your favorite quick-cooking greens like bok choy or kale and adjust cooking time as needed. Swap the shrimp for scallops or white fish, if you like. Serve with rice, rice vermicelli noodles or naan to soak up the flavorful liquid.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 large garlic cloves, minced or grated
1 teaspoon minced or grated ginger
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on or off
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 packed cups baby spinach
1 lime, halved
1 fresno, jalapeño or serrano chile, thinly sliced
2 scallions, white and light green parts, thinly sliced
1/2 packed cup cilantro leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
Steamed rice, vermicelli noodles or naan, for serving

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, mix together the garlic, ginger, turmeric, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper and the olive oil. Add the shrimp and mix to coat well.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add the shrimp in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, for 2 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and soy sauce, stir to combine and turn the shrimp. Raise the heat to high and adjust it to maintain a simmer (avoid bringing to a boil), and cook until the liquid is slightly thickened and shrimp are almost cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach in batches until wilted.
  • Remove from the heat and squeeze in the juice from a lime half. Adjust seasoning with more lime and salt as needed. Top with the chiles, scallions and cilantro, and serve with rice, noodles or naan.

5-INGREDIENT SHRIMP RISOTTO



5-Ingredient Shrimp Risotto image

This shrimp risotto uses the shrimp shells and tails to create a flavorful stock that will infuse into the rice as it cooks! The bright lemon combined with the homemade stock and peppery arugula creates a taste that's so bold, you'll never believe it only took 5 ingredients to make!

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound large shell-on shrimp, peeled, deveined and chopped into 1-inch pieces, shells and tails reserved
6 cloves garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup lemon juice (from 3 lemons)
1 cup packed baby arugula, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon lemon zest (from 1 lemon)

Steps:

  • Put the shrimp shells and tails, 3 cloves of garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium saucepan. Cover with 7 cups of water and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Strain the shrimp broth into a large liquid measuring cup. Discard the shells and garlic. You should be left with 6 cups of broth. If the broth reduced more, just supplement with a little extra water to yield 6 cups. Add the broth back into the empty saucepan and keep warm over low heat.
  • Heat a large straight-sided skillet or braiser over medium-high heat. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil until shimmering. Add the chopped shrimp and sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, thinly slice the remaining 3 cloves of garlic and set aside. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium low and add 1 tablespoon of oil if the skillet is too dry, then add the sliced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and just starting to soften, about 1 minute. Stir in the arborio rice until coated with the oil. Add the lemon juice and cook, stirring occasionally, until it has been mostly absorbed, about 2 minutes.
  • Ladle 1 cup of the warm stock into the rice and cook, stirring gently without stopping, until the rice has absorbed the liquid, 2 to 3 minutes; you will know it's time to add more stock when you move the rice aside and no liquid pools in the center.
  • Repeat this process, adding more stock a ladleful at a time, until the rice is al dente and creamy, 20 to 25 minutes. If you run out of broth before the risotto is at its desired doneness, add some water.
  • Stir in the arugula, shrimp and half of the lemon zest and cook until the arugula wilts slightly.
  • Serve topped with the remaining lemon zest.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your risotto more delicious. Look for plump shrimp, creamy coconut milk, and arborio rice that is firm and starchy.
  • Toast the rice: This step helps to develop the nutty flavor of the rice and prevent it from becoming mushy. Be sure to stir the rice constantly so that it doesn't burn.
  • Add the liquids gradually: Don't add all of the liquid at once. Instead, add it in small increments, stirring constantly. This will help the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevent it from becoming too soupy.
  • Cook the risotto until it is creamy and al dente: The rice should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it. If the rice is too soft, it will be mushy. If it is too hard, it will be undercooked.
  • Season the risotto to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lime juice or a handful of chopped fresh herbs.

Conclusion:

Risotto with coconut milk and shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture, delicate flavor, and succulent shrimp, this risotto is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and flavorful meal, give this recipe a try!
