from America's Test Kitchen TV show. Their note: The cooking times below are for 21/25 shrimp (that is, the size of the shrimp is such that there are 21 to 25 in 1 pound). If 21/25 shrimp are not available, adjust cooking times slightly. Either a nonstick or traditional skillet will work for this recipe, but a nonstick will simplify cleanup.

GARLIC BUTTER SMOKED SHRIMP



Garlic Butter Smoked Shrimp image

One of the quickest meals you can make in your smoker is shrimp, done in just 30 minutes. These shrimp are lightly seasoned to let the smoke flavor shine, but add more seasoning if desired. Because of the short smoke time, feel free to use a stronger-flavored wood such as hickory or mesquite. Serve with cheesy grits, rice, atop a salad, or as an appetizer with a remoulade sauce.

Time 1h40m

5 sprigs fresh thyme

  • Place butter in a microwave-safe dish and cook on high until completely melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Stir in lemon peel, garlic, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
  • Arrange shrimp in even rows in a 8x10-inch aluminum pan. Place thyme sprigs between each row. Drizzle butter mixture over shrimp.

GRILLED JUMBO SHRIMP WITH GARLIC-HERB BUTTER



Grilled Jumbo Shrimp With Garlic-Herb Butter image

A very simple recipe with just enough seasoning to enhance the flavor of the grilled shrimp without overpowering it. The best way to eat the shrimp is to peel them at the table and dip in extra butter sauce left over from the recipe. I have prepared the recipe with and without the rum - I do not find the rum to add anything special.

Provided by WannaBcook5792

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley (optional)

1 shallot, finely chopped
16 jumbo shrimp, in the shell preferably with heads left on
salt & freshly ground black pepper
white rum, for sprinkling (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the butter with the parsley, basil, garlic and shallot and melt over low heat.
  • Light a grill or heat a grill pan.
  • Halve the shrimp lengthwise, leaving them attached 1 inch below the head (if the head is left on). Devein the shrimp and spread them open. Season with salt and pepper, then brush liberally with the herb butter.
  • Grill the shrimp over a medium-hot fire, shell side down, until lightly charred, about 1 minute.
  • Turn and grill the other side until lightly browned, about 40 seconds. Turn the shrimp again. Brush them liberally with more herb butter, sprinkle with rum and grill until barely cooked through and bubbling, about 1 minute longer.
  • Serve at once.

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill (medium-high heat). Grill the corn on the grill rack, covered, turning occasionally, until lightly charred in spots, about 10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the corn to a platter and let it cool, then cut the kernels from the cob. In a bowl toss the corn with the remaining corn salad ingredients. Season the salad with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Make the pico de gallo:
  • Toss together all the pico de gallo ingredients and season the salsa with salt and additional fresh lemon and lime juice, if necessary.
  • Make the avocado purée:
  • Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender and add the mango and lime and lemon juices. Blend the mixture until it is smooth, then, thin the purée, if necessary. with water. Season the purée with salt.
  • For the prawns:
  • In a medium skillet over moderately high heat, melt the butter, then stir in the cilantro. Add the prawns and sauté, turning them occasionally, until they turn pink and are just cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes. Season the prawns with salt.
  • Plate the dish:
  • Divide the corn salad among 4 plates, spooning it onto the center of each plate, and top each serving with a prawn. Spoon the pico de gallo over the prawn and drizzle it with the avocado purée.

Tips:
