CHEF JOHN'S GRILLED GARLIC AND HERB SHRIMP



Chef John's Grilled Garlic and Herb Shrimp image

This grilled garlic and herb shrimp recipe is very easy, IF you can just walk out into the backyard, and pick a handful of your own fresh, green sprigs. However, these are so amazingly delicious, if you don't have a garden, then do splurge and buy a bunch of all the herbs. And get the extra large shrimp so they can grill longer and get maximum caramelization.

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Shrimp

Time 3h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon lemon zest
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh lemon thyme leaves
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
2 pounds extra large shrimp (16-20), peeled and deveined, tail left on
skewers
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pinch cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Place salt, lemon zest, and 3 cloves garlic in bowl of a mortar and pestle. Pound with the pestle until mixture begins to form a paste, about 2 minutes. Add chopped basil, parsley, oregano, and thyme and pound with pestle until mixture begin to come together, about 5 minutes.
  • Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into herb mixture. Grind together until mixture begins to form a sauce for marinating, about 1 minute. Pour in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Stir mixture with a spoon until mixture is thoroughly combined, adding additional olive oil as needed. Mixture should be fairly thick but pourable.
  • Place shrimp in a large bowl and mix in about 2/3 of the sauce, reserving 1/3 for serving. Stir until shrimp are evenly coated with the sauce, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining sauce.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Thread shrimp onto skewers (pierce each twice, once through large part of shrimp, once through small part). Place skewers on hot grill. Cook on each side until shrimp are bright pink and opaque and exterior is beginning to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer skewers to serving platter.
  • Pour remaining sauce into mixing bowl. Whisk in 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. Spoon sauce over shrimp. Serve with lemon wedges.

GARLIC HERB SHRIMP AND SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE BY TASTY



Garlic Herb Shrimp And Spaghetti Squash Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: spaghetti squash, oil, salt, pepper, raw shrimp, garlic, onion powder, dried parsley, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, pepper, oil, parmesan cheese, fresh parsley

Provided by Tiffany Lo

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 spaghetti squash
oil, to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 lb raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon oil
parmesan cheese, optional
fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Using a fork or knife, carefully poke holes along the middle of the squash.
  • Microwave for 5 minutes so the squash softens and is easier to cut.
  • Cut in half horizontally and scoop out the seeds.
  • Drizzle olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Place in the Instant Pot and secure the lid until you hear the beep. Tip: Closing the lid can be tricky. Have the pressure knob at 11 o'clock and turn right.
  • Set the pressure knob on the top of the lid to Sealing. Select "Manual" and reduce to 7 minutes. It will say "On" in a few seconds. Note: the Instant Pot will need to warm up for 5-10 minutes. Steam will be released and a few minutes later, the time will start counting down.
  • While the squash is cooking, prepare the shrimp. Place the shrimp in a bowl and add the minced garlic, onion powder, parsley, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
  • Once the 7 minutes is up, let the squash rest in the pot for 5 minutes. It will count up and read "L 0:05".
  • Using a towel or mit, release the pressure knob from "Sealing" to "Venting". After the steam has been released, carefully take the squash out of the pot and let it rest in a bowl.
  • Drain the excess liquid and clean the pot.
  • To cook the shrimp, select "Saute" on the Instant Pot. Once it says "Hot", add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the shrimp in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary). Cook for 3-5 minutes per side or until opaque.
  • Press "Cancel" and remove the shrimp.
  • Using a fork, shred the inside of the squash.
  • Serve the spaghetti squash and shrimp together. If desired, top with parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
  • Enjoy!

2 tablespoons good olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic (6 cloves)
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large lemons

  • Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp snugly in one layer in a large (12-inch) round ovenproof sauté pan (or 10 × 13-inch baking dish) with only the tails overlapping. Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp. Sprinkle with the sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.

Cut the remaining lemon in half and squeeze the juice onto the shrimp. Serve hot with the toasted bread for dipping into the garlic butter.

GARLIC AND HERB SHRIMP

I made these for dinner tonight and it was so easy and delicious!! They reminded me of sauteed shrimp you would get at a fine seafood restaurant! I got some frozen shrimp that were on sale, but fresh shrimp would be fine to use. Shrimp doesn't take very long to cook, maybe 5 minutes or so, so don't overcook the shrimp, or they could turn rubbery.
