This is a great easy prawn marinade, they are great on the BBQ, we put them out as appetizers but they can also be a main course. I've also sauteed them with the marinade and used the sauce with pasta or just lapped it up with French bread! ENJOY.

Creamy Garlic Shrimp Toast image

Sweet, butterflied shrimp in a garlicky cream sauce with a smoky paprika flavor are served over thick slices of buttery, pan-toasted French bread in this simple recipe for two! This sauce would be good over pasta, rice, or potatoes, but I think enjoying it like this is the best way to go.

Categories     Shrimp Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 ounces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pinch cayenne pepper
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
3 cloves garlic, crushed, or more to taste
2 thick slices French bread
6 tablespoons clarified butter, melted, divided
2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
½ cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons minced fresh Italian parsley
1 pinch salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Butterfly shrimp and place in a mixing bowl. Add cayenne, paprika, and garlic and stir until shrimp are evenly coated. Refrigerate until needed.
  • Trim most of the crusts off of the bread.
  • Add 4 tablespoons melted butter to a skillet over medium heat. Add both slices of bread and toast until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove bread to a plate and wipe out any crumbs.
  • Add remaining melted butter to the skillet and increase heat to high. When the pan is very hot and you see the first wisp of smoke, add shrimp and use tongs to spread into an even layer. Sear, without stirring or tossing, for 1 minute.
  • Sprinkle with lemon zest and add lemon juice and cream. Stir with a spoon to scrape any browned bits off the bottom. Let cream boil and reduce for 1 ½ to 2 minutes as the shrimp finishes cooking and the sauce thickens up.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in parsley. Taste and add salt if needed.
  • Divide shrimp and sauce evenly over each piece of toasted bread.

BAKED GARLIC PRAWNS WITH ROASTED PEPPERS & GREMOLATA TOASTS



Baked garlic prawns with roasted peppers & gremolata toasts image

For a Christmas Eve dinner that looks impressive but is easy to make, this seafood dish ticks the boxes

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 red peppers, halved and deseeded
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced, plus 1 whole peeled clove
6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
125ml white wine or vermouth
800g large prawns, unpeeled
1 baguette, sliced into 2cm pieces
1 tsp smoked paprika
small bunch of parsley
2 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small lemon, zested

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the peppers, cut-side up, in a roasting tin. Scatter the sliced garlic into the peppers. Drizzle over half the oil and add a splash of the wine. Season. Cover with foil and bake for 40 mins. Leave to cool for 10 mins. If making ahead, leave at room temperature for up to a few hours until ready to use.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the prawns. Remove the heads, peel, and leave the tails intact, if you like. Or, for more flavour, leave them unpeeled. Use a sharp knife to cut down the back of each prawn from the head to just before the tail (this is harder to do if unpeeled, but still worth it). You'll find a black line along some prawns. Remove this with the knife. Keep chilled, following pack instructions, until ready to cook.
  • Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Rub the baguette slices with the garlic clove, then drizzle with 2 tbsp oil. Bake for 10 mins. Leave to cool. Can be made a few hours ahead. For the gremolata, combine the parsley, garlic, oil and lemon zest with a pinch of salt (no more than 1 hr before serving). Cut the lemon in half and set aside.
  • Uncover the peppers, then peel and discard the skins. Slice or tear the peppers into strips. Turn the oven up to 240C/220C fan/gas 8.
  • Put the prawns and peppers into a 25cm round baking dish. Toss with the rest of the wine, paprika and remaining oil. Season. Lay the prawns in a single layer with the lemon halves, cut-side up. Roast for 10 mins, tossing halfway. The prawns will turn pink when ready. 6 Meanwhile, spread the gremolata over the toasts. Squeeze the lemon halves over the prawns, and serve with the toasts on the side.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, large prawns. Smaller prawns will be more difficult to devein and cook evenly.
  • Devein the prawns before cooking. This will remove the digestive tract and any grit or sand.
  • Marinate the prawns in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs. This will help to flavor the prawns and keep them moist during cooking.
  • Cook the prawns over high heat. This will help to sear the prawns and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Do not overcook the prawns. Overcooked prawns will be tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the prawns immediately with baguette toasts. You can also garnish the prawns with fresh herbs or lemon wedges.

Conclusion:

Garlic prawn appetizer on baguette toasts is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The prawns are succulent and flavorful, and the baguette toasts are the perfect accompaniment. This appetizer is sure to be a hit with your guests!
