Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb shrimp, medium to large, peeled and deveined
1 pinch black pepper, to taste
1 lemon
4 tablespoons olive oil or 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 medium garlic cloves, sliced thinly
3/4 lb asparagus, tough ends snapped off and cut into 2 inch lengths (about 2 cups)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Place shrimp on paper towels and dry very well.

  • Add the shrimp in a single layer and do not disturb it; let cook for about 2 minutes until browned.
  • Turn shrimp over and brown the other side, about 1 1/2 minutes, then transfer to a plate. Shrimp should not be cooked through.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and add garlic, stirring for 30 seconds.
  • Add asparagus, lemon zest strips, red pepper flakes and cook, stirring for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add chicken broth and cover, simmering for 1-2 minutes until asparagus is almost done.
  • Stir cornstarch with 1 Tbsp water and stir into the pan.
  • Add shrimp back to the pan and cook another 1-2 minutes until done.

ASPARAGUS SOUP WITH SHRIMP



Asparagus Soup With Shrimp image

Provided by Moira Hodgson

Categories     quick, project, appetizer, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 pounds asparagus
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 leeks, sliced
2 shallots, minced
1 pound small shrimp
Juice of 1/2 lemon
3 cups chicken stock
2 cups water
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves

Sprinkle with lemon juice and set the shrimp aside.
  • Add the chicken stock and water with the asparagus and simmer it for 15 minutes or until it is tender. Puree the mixture in a blender and return it to the saucepan. Season to taste with salt and pepper and heat through over moderate heat.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling in the kitchen.
  • Choose the right shrimp: For this recipe, it's best to use large or jumbo shrimp, as they will hold up better to the cooking process. Make sure the shrimp are fresh and deveined before cooking.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking. Shrimp is cooked through when it turns pink and opaque.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking shrimp, it's important to not overcrowd the pan, as this will cause the shrimp to steam rather than sear. Cook the shrimp in batches if necessary.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The lemon-glaze sauce should be thick enough to coat the shrimp and asparagus. If the sauce is too thin, it will not adhere to the food. You can thicken the sauce by simmering it for a few minutes or by adding a cornstarch slurry.
  • Serve immediately: Lemon-glazed shrimp and asparagus is best served immediately after cooking, while the shrimp is still hot and the asparagus is still crisp.

Conclusion:

Lemon-glazed shrimp and asparagus is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The shrimp is cooked to perfection and the lemon-glaze sauce is bursting with flavor. The asparagus is a healthy and delicious side dish that rounds out the meal. This recipe is a great way to get your seafood fix. It's also a great way to use up any leftover shrimp you have on hand. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy seafood dish, give this lemon-glazed shrimp and asparagus a try!
