Steps:
- Finely grate zest of 3 lemons. Juice all 4 lemons; strain juice, and set aside. Place shrimp in a large bowl; add lemon zest, garlic, and 1/4 cup olive oil; toss well to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, and heat until oil is hot but not smoking. Working in batches, arrange a single layer of shrimp in pan, being careful not to overcrowd pan. Cook until underside is golden brown, 45 to 60 seconds. Turn over, and continue cooking until other side is golden brown and shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large serving platter. Deglaze pan with 1 1/2 tablespoons reserved lemon juice, stirring up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, and pour pan sauce over shrimp. Cover loosely with foil while repeating process with remaining batches, adding 1 tablespoon oil each time.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest shrimp possible. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slightly translucent appearance. Avoid shrimp that are discolored or have a strong odor.
- Properly devein the shrimp. To devein shrimp, use a sharp knife to make a shallow incision along the back of the shrimp, from the head to the tail. Remove the dark vein that runs through the center of the shrimp.
- Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque.
- Use fresh herbs and spices. Fresh herbs and spices will give your shrimp dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking shrimp, it's important to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the shrimp is hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
Seared shrimp in endive leaves with parsley sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The shrimp are cooked to perfection and the parsley sauce is light and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
