SHRIMP CARBONARA

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups small-diced pancetta
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 quarts whole milk
1 cup grated Parmesan
Kosher salt
Freshly ground white pepper
Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds pappardelle
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, plus more if necessary
30 extra-jumbo (16/20) shrimp, peeled and deveined
Freshly ground black pepper
2 lemons
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups English peas
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
6 egg yolks, optional

Steps:

  • For the carbonara base sauce: Put the pancetta in a cold saute pan and then put it over medium-high heat. When the fat starts to melt, stir the pancetta once in a while so it doesn't burn in the pan. Allow the pancetta to cook in the rendered fat until crispy and brown, about 30 minutes. Remove the pancetta pieces to a plate lined with paper towels, saving the fat in the pan.
  • Whisk the flour into the pancetta fat to make a roux and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring so it does not burn. Whisk the milk into the the roux. (Transfer to a large pot if your saute pan is not big enough to hold the sauce.) Allow the sauce to gently simmer for 15 minutes, stirring regularly. Whisk in the Parmesan and season with some salt and pepper. Simmer to melt the cheese, another 2 to 3 minutes. Hold warm for serving.
  • To finish the dish: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
  • Meanwhile, season the shrimp with some salt and pepper. Heat a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Add the oil and then, working in batches if necessary, cook the shrimp to get a golden brown sear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. You do not want to overcrowd the pan. Add more oil between batches if necessary. Squeeze the juice of 1 of the lemons over the shrimp, add the butter to the pan and remove from the heat to let the shrimp rest.
  • Bring the carbonara base sauce back up to a simmer. Add the pasta to the sauce and then add the peas and cooked pancetta. Adjust the consistency of the sauce with water if needed.
  • Add the shrimp to the pan with the pasta, toss and then season with some salt and pepper to taste. Add a squeeze of lemon juice from the remaining lemon.
  • To plate, divide the pasta and sauce among 6 bowls and arrange the pasta. Garnish with the parsley.

Provided by Robert Farrar Capon

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound fresh shrimp
4 red or green sweet bell peppers
4 tablespoons clarified butter
2 shallots, chopped fine
1 cup tomato puree
4 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper as desired

Steps:

  • Peel and devein shrimp. Singe peppers over a gas flame or under a broiler until blackened all over. Allow to cool and rub off charred skin. (Don't be afraid to leave a bit of the charring behind; the flavor is essential to the dish.) Stem and seed the charred peppers and cut them into shrimp-sized pieces.
  • Heat clarified butter in a large skillet until very hot. Add shrimp and saute briefly until they turn white and pink. Remove and reserve.
  • Add shallots to skillet and saute 1 minute without browning. Add tomato puree and bring to the boil. Add butter, salt and pepper to taste and stir until butter is melted. Add peppers and bring to the boil again.
  • Return shrimp to skillet to heat through and finish cooking (about 1 minute). Pour mixture into serving dish. Serve over pasta or rice.

  • Use fresh, high-quality shrimp: The fresher the shrimp, the better the flavor of the dish will be.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are just opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Make sure the sauce is well-seasoned: The sauce should be flavorful and slightly tangy. Add more lemon juice, salt, or pepper to taste.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Shrimp Robert is best served immediately after it is made. The sauce will thicken as it cools, so if you need to make it ahead of time, reheat it gently over low heat.

Conclusion:

Shrimp Robert is a classic French dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of shrimp, butter, lemon, and herbs is simply delicious. This dish can be served as an appetizer or main course, and it is perfect for any occasion. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy seafood dish, give Shrimp Robert a try.
