SPICY ROASTED SHRIMP AND BROCCOLI RABE



Spicy Roasted Shrimp and Broccoli Rabe image

This dish uses one of my favorite techniques for cooking just about anything quickly: high-heat roasting. All you do is spread seasoned protein and vegetables out on one rimmed baking sheet and roast everything at the same time. Here I've paired shrimp with broccoli rabe, which cook in about 10 minutes flat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right shrimp: Use fresh or frozen shrimp that are deveined and peeled. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Make sure the broccoli is fresh: Look for broccoli florets that are bright green and tightly closed.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp and broccoli, do not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give the shrimp and broccoli plenty of room to cook.
  • Cook the shrimp and broccoli in batches: If you are cooking a large amount of shrimp and broccoli, cook them in batches to prevent overcrowding.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Serve immediately: Spicy shrimp and broccoli is best served immediately after cooking.
