Categories     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb shrimp ((Use unfrozen uncooked shrimp. If you have to, you can use unfrozen cooked shrimp - it will work here too))
4 oz sun-dried tomatoes (in olive oil)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 cup half-and-half (or whole milk)
1 teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 cup Parmesan cheese (, freshly shredded)
8 oz fettuccine pasta ((use gluten free brown rice fettuccine for gluten free version))

Steps:

  • Note: if using sun-dried tomatoes in oil (in a jar), make sure to drain sun-dried tomatoes from oil, before using them. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this drained oil for sauteing as described below:
  • In a large skillet, saute minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes (drained from oil) in 2 tablespoons of oil (reserved from the sun-dried tomatoes jar - see note above) for 1 minute until garlic is fragrant.
  • Add shrimp, sprinkle with a small amount of salt, paprika, and cook on medium heat for about 2 more minutes.
  • Add half-and-half, basil, and crushed red pepper to the skillet with shrimp, bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Whisk the Parmesan cheese into the hot cream and stir to melt cheese, on the lowest heat setting, until cheese is melted.
  • Remove the sauce from heat. Add more salt, basil, and more crushed red pepper if desired, to taste.
  • In the meantime, cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain (reserving some pasta water).
  • Add cooked pasta to the creamy mixture, add more salt, basil, and more crushed red pepper if desired, to taste. If the sauce is too thick, use the reserved pasta water to thin it out.

SHRIMP WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES



Shrimp With Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

Sun-dried tomatoes might scream 1980s nouveau cuisine to you, and that's a fair assessment considering their somewhat profligate use throughout the decade. Yet this dish may have you reconsidering their place in your pantry. Used sparingly, sun-dried tomatoes can impart a bold tomato-y taste that Mark Bittman argues is in some ways "better than 'real' tomato flavor." In this 20-minute sauté, the intense tang of capers and tomatoes plays beautifully off the mild sweetness of shrimp. Serve it over pasta or rice, or alone with a big hunk of good bread.

Categories     seafood, appetizer, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Several sprigs thyme
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons capers, drained if necessary
1/2 cup fish stock or dry white wine
16 to 24 large shrimp, peeled
Salt and pepper
Chopped fresh basil

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler; rack should be 2 to 4 inches from heat source and the heat as high as possible.
  • Put oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium heat and add thyme, garlic, tomatoes and capers. Cook just until mixture sizzles, then add stock or wine; raise heat and bring to a boil. Cook for about a minute, then add shrimp, turning them in sauce.
  • Put skillet under broiler and cook until shrimp are done, 3 to 5 minutes, turning once. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, garnish with basil, and serve hot or warm.

SHRIMP WITH SUN-DRIED-TOMATO BARBECUE SAUCE



Shrimp With Sun-Dried-Tomato Barbecue Sauce image

This is a spicy shrimp dish that goes great with crusty bread to sop up all the sauce. The recipe has a recommendation to serve it with either beer or an Italian Frascati wine. This was given to me by my father's receptionist out of one of her favorite cookbooks (sorry, I don't know the name of it). If I want to save time, I will add pre-cooked shrimp to the sauce and heat them through. This lets you skip the oven step completely.

Provided by Moira Hodgson

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound medium to large shrimp
1 cup chicken stock, preferably homemade
2 tablespoons pumate (sun-dried tomato puree)
1 large tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped (or canned, with 1/4 cup juice)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon, chervil or parsley

Steps:

  • Peel the shrimp, setting aside the shells. Place the shrimp in a bowl of cold, well-salted water. Refrigerate. Put the shells in a saucepan with the chicken stock and 1 cup of water and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the sun-dried tomato puree, tomato and butter in a blender. Puree until smooth. Place in a small bowl and refrigerate.
  • Strain the stock (discarding the shrimp shells) and combine with the tomato sauce in a small saucepan. Simmer gently until thickened and reduce to 1 cup. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy skillet. Drain the shrimp and pat them dry with paper towels. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Roast over high heat until barely cooked. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, succulent shrimp. Frozen shrimp can also be used, but fresh shrimp will have a better flavor and texture.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it is important to cook it just until it is opaque and pink. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use high-quality sun-dried tomatoes. Sun-dried tomatoes can vary in quality, so it is important to choose a brand that you trust. Good-quality sun-dried tomatoes will be plump and flavorful.
  • Use a good white wine. The white wine used in the sauce should be a dry wine with a good acidity. A Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio would be a good choice.
  • Serve the shrimp with pasta, rice, or vegetables. This dish is versatile and can be served with a variety of sides.

Conclusion:

Shrimp with Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The shrimp is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with sun-dried tomatoes, white wine, and herbs. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
