SHRIMP WITH CREAMED CORN AND FETA



Shrimp With Creamed Corn and Feta image

Fresh summer corn kernels, simmered with feta cheese and a little cream, make a buttery bed for shrimp sautéed in a tomato and bell pepper sauce. Think of it as a lighter, sweeter and wholly inauthentic take on shrimp and grits. If you crave this out of corn season, feel free to use frozen kernels instead.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds extra-large peeled shrimp (12 to 16 a pound)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
3 garlic cloves, finely grated or minced
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
4 cups corn kernels (from 6 to 7 ears corn)
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, more for serving
Black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 small red onions, diced
1 large poblano chile or green bell pepper, diced
2 large ripe tomatoes, diced
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Large dash of Worcestershire sauce
Dash of hot sauce, preferably Tabasco
Cilantro leaves, for serving
Basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss shrimp with salt and garlic and let rest in the refrigerator until needed (up to 2 hours).
  • In a medium saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter with the cream over medium heat. Add corn, cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring once or twice, until the corn is very soft, 10 to 15 minutes. If all the moisture evaporates before the corn is soft, add a few teaspoons water to the pan.
  • Using an immersion blender or regular blender, blend corn mixture until you get a chunky purée. Mix in feta, black pepper and salt to taste. Cover and keep warm until needed.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and pepper and sauté until pale golden and soft, 7 minutes. Add tomatoes, a large pinch of salt, and a tablespoon or two of water if the pan looks dry, and sauté until the tomatoes break down and turn saucelike, about 8 minutes.
  • Add shrimp, lemon juice and Worcestershire and hot sauces. Sauté until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir remaining butter into pan and add more salt, if needed.
  • Serve corn topped with shrimp and plenty of crumbled feta. Garnish with cilantro and basil.

Categories     Corn

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 red onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
3 ears corn, kernels removed (or 1 1/2 c frozen corn)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped--ot to taste
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled (4 oz)
1 tablespoon butter
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • heat skillet on stovetop.
  • add olive oil, onions, garlic, cook until softened.
  • add corn and rosemary and stir.
  • add stock and simmer until corn is tender, 5 minutes.
  • add heavy cream, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by 1/3.
  • remove from heat.
  • stir in feta and butter until creamy.
  • season with fresh ground pepper, serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen corn. Fresh corn is best, but frozen corn will work in a pinch. If using frozen corn, thaw it before using.
  • Don't overcook the corn. Cook the corn just until it is tender, about 5 minutes. Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a good quality feta cheese. Feta cheese is the star of this dish, so make sure to use a good quality cheese that is flavorful and crumbly.
  • Add some herbs. Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, can add a nice flavor to this dish. Add them at the end of cooking, so they don't lose their flavor.
  • Serve immediately. This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The corn will start to lose its sweetness as it sits, so don't make it ahead of time.

Conclusion:

Feta creamed corn is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh or frozen corn, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a new side dish to try, give feta creamed corn a try.
