SHRIMP LETTUCE WRAPS RECIPE



Shrimp Lettuce Wraps Recipe image

Light and delicious shrimp lettuce wraps loaded with flavor from crunchy vegetables, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of sauce. Ready in about 10 minutes! The best lettuce to use for lettuce wraps is butter lettuce (also called bibb or Boston bibb lettuce). Choose larger, sturdier leaves that will hold up under all the toppings. Serve lettuce wraps by themselves for a light lunch or appetizer, or alongside a white bean salad or potato salad for something heftier.

STICKY CARAMELIZED SHRIMP LETTUCE WRAPS



Sticky Caramelized Shrimp Lettuce Wraps image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 cloves garlic
1⁄2 teaspoon roasted chile powder or red chili flakes
1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp
Kosher salt
1⁄4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice, lemon juice or white vinegar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1⁄4 cup unsalted roasted peanuts, chopped
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Quick Pickles (see recipe below)
12 Bibb or Boston lettuce leaves
1⁄2 English cucumber, peeled and cut into 2-inch matchsticks
Fresh cilantro leaves
2 cups cooked jasmine rice, warmed (optional)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup hot water
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Kosher salt
2 medium carrots, peeled and julienned
8 medium red radishes, julienned

Steps:

  • For the shrimp: In a wok or large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering-hot. Add the garlic and chili powder and cook, stirring, until fragrant, less than 1 minute. Add the shrimp in an even layer and season with a pinch of salt. Cook, turning once, until the shrimp are lightly browned and almost cooked through, but still slightly translucent, 2 to 3 minutes total. Transfer the shrimp to a plate and wipe out the wok with a paper towel. Place a measuring cup with 1⁄4 cup water next to your cooktop. Set the wok over medium heat and add the brown sugar, lime juice (this helps keep the sugar from crystallizing) and 2 tablespoons water. Cook, stirring often, until the sugar turns into an amber-colored caramel (it should be as thick as honey), 6 to 7 minutes. Then, stir in the fish sauce and soy sauce and remove from the heat. Once a smooth sticky sauce forms (about as thick as honey), after 30 seconds or so, add the cooked shrimp, scallions and scallions, toss to coat.
  • Assemble the lettuce wraps: Remove the Quick Pickles (see recipe below) from the fridge and arrange the lettuce leaves, cucumber and cilantro on a serving platter. To serve, spoon some of the shrimp onto a lettuce leaf along with some rice (if using) and top with a few pickles, cucumber and a sprig of cilantro. Roll up and eat immediately.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar water, sugar and 2 pinches of salt and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the carrot and radishes and toss to combine. Transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 20 minutes.

MEDITERRANEAN SHRIMP WRAPS



Mediterranean Shrimp Wraps image

I saw this being made on a Robin Miller episode on Food Network. I printed out the recipe and it's been sitting in my "to do" pile for quite a while. We finally tried it tonight for dinner and were delighted at how all the flavors blended together and it just couldn't be any easier or more versatile. You can make your own basil pesto, of course, and use any flavor of tortilla, or just use plain (we used spinach). The original recipe called for canned artichoke but we don't like those and so I used marinated artichokes in the jar and rinsed the oil off, then squeezed them dry in a paper towel. The sun-dried tomatoes added a lovely bite of flavor, I do not recommend leaving them out. These will make a really nice, light summer meal served with a couscous salad, or some other Mediterranean type salad.

  • Use a flavorful sauce or dressing. This will help to bring all of the flavors together and make the wraps more enjoyable. Some good options include a spicy mayonnaise, a sweet and sour sauce, or a teriyaki sauce.
  • Serve the wraps immediately. This will help to prevent the wrappers from becoming soggy.
