Kosher salt
12 ounces linguine

1/3 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1/2 lemon, plus wedges for serving
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces

SHRIMP AND SCALLOP "GOULASH"-AN INTERESTING COMBINATION.



Shrimp and Scallop

Categories     Sauce     Scallop     Shrimp     Chill     Simmer

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups water
1 pound small shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound scallops (whole bay scallops or quartered sea scallops)
1/2 head cauliflower, divided into florets
One 12-ounce basket cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons pitted black olives, quartered, or 3 tablespoons capers, drained
One 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained
Sauce
2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup horseradish sauce
2 tablespoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring the water to a simmer in a 2-quart saucepan. Reduce the heat to low and add the shrimp. Cook for 1 minute. Add the scallops and cook for 1 minute more. Drain, transfer to a large bowl, and let cool. Meanwhile, combine all ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl. Add the cauliflower, tomatoes, olives or capers, and water chestnuts to the shrimp and scallop mixture. Add the sauce and toss to coat. Serve immediately or cover and chill in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, succulent shrimp. Frozen shrimp can be used, but fresh shrimp will give your goulash a more vibrant flavor.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This recipe calls for bell peppers, onions, and carrots, but you can also add other vegetables, such as celery, mushrooms, or zucchini.
  • Use a good quality paprika. Paprika is a key ingredient in shrimp goulash, so be sure to use a good quality paprika. Hungarian paprika is a good choice.
  • Serve with sour cream and crusty bread. Sour cream and crusty bread are traditional accompaniments to shrimp goulash. They add a creamy richness and a satisfying crunch.

Conclusion:

Shrimp goulash is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it can be tailored to your own tastes. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give shrimp goulash a try. You won't be disappointed!
