1 small leek, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
A few black peppercorns
1 small bundle fresh parsley and thyme
4 cups chicken stock
A fat pinch saffron
1 egg yolk
1 clove garlic, smashed to a paste
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2/3 to 3/4 cup grapeseed oil
Salt and pepper
Hot sauce, such as Tabasco
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 to 2 links andouille sausage, sliced on the bias
2 to 3 cloves garlic, grated or minced

1/2 small bulb fennel, sliced, fronds reserved

3 ounces redfish, cut into chunks
12 shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
2 to 3 ounces fresh crabmeat
Old Bay seasoning
Hot sauce, such as Tabasco
4 slices baguette, toasted

Steps:

  • For the broth: Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp heads and shells and saute a few minutes until starting to brown. Add the celery, bay leaf, leeks, onions and peppercorns; stir for a couple of minutes. Add the herb bundle and cover with the stock, then add the saffron and bring to a simmer. Let bubble gently for about 30 minutes. Strain and reserve.
  • For the spicy garlic aioli: Whisk together the egg yolk, garlic, Dijon and lemon juice in a small bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly stream in the oil to emulsify. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce.
  • For the bouillabaisse: Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium to large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the andouille and cook until browned and crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to the Dutch oven. Add the garlic, celery, onions, fennel and bell peppers. Let sweat for 8 to 10 minutes, adding the tomatoes during the last few minutes of cooking. Raise the heat to medium-high, add the beer and bring to a simmer. Let reduce for a few minutes, then add 2 to 3 cups of the shrimp stock and bring to a simmer. Add the redfish and shrimp and let cook through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the crabmeat to heat through. Season with Old Bay and hot sauce and add the andouille back to the pot.
  • To serve: Spread the aioli on the toasted baguette slices and divide among four shallow bowls. To each bowl, add three pieces of fish, three pieces of shrimp, some crab and some Andouille. Pour in some of the broth, making sure to include the vegetables in the broth. Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.

GRILLED NEW ORLEANS-STYLE SHRIMP



Grilled New Orleans-Style Shrimp image

Categories     Shellfish     Picnic     Quick & Easy     Mardi Gras     Lemon     Shrimp     Spring     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 lb large shrimp (21 to 25 per lb)
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium garlic cloves, minced
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons black pepper
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Accompaniments: a baguette and lemon wedges
Special Equipment
7 (12-inch) wooden skewers

Steps:

  • Snip shells of shrimp with scissors down middle of back, leaving tail and first segment of shell intact. Make an incision along length of back where shells are cut and devein, leaving shells in place. (Shells will prevent shrimp from becoming tough on outside when grilled.) Toss shrimp with oil, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and marinate at cool room temperature 15 minutes.
  • While shrimp marinate, prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
  • Heat butter, chili powder, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until butter is melted, then remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.
  • Thread 4 or 5 shrimp onto each skewer and grill, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes total. Push shrimp off skewers into a bowl, then pour butter mixture over them and toss to combine well.
