SHRIMP BATHED IN OLIVE OIL AND LEMON



Shrimp Bathed in Olive Oil and Lemon image

A simple but lavish bath of olive oil and lemon juice is the Italian way of showing off superfresh seafood. The key, according to Marcella Hazan, is that the dish should never see the inside of a refrigerator, which changes the texture of the seafood and the flavor of the olive oil. She calls for shrimp in this recipe, but the formula also works with squid, clams and meaty fish fillets.

Time 20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings as an appetizer, 4 to 6 servings as an entree

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
2 pounds medium-large shrimp (about 26-30 per pound), peeled and deveined (tails optional)
Flaky sea salt and coarsely ground black pepper
1 large pinch freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley
Torn or sliced crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, preferably not too deep, so you can watch the shrimp as they cook. Pour the olive oil and lemon juice into a baking or serving dish, preferably a white one to show off the colors of the finished dish.
  • Working in a few batches to prevent overcooking, boil the shrimp over high until just firm and opaque, 2 to 3 minutes, removing them to a colander with a slotted spoon. When all the shrimp are cooked, transfer them to the olive oil-lemon bath and gently mix to coat. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. The shrimp should be just covered with liquid; pour in more oil as needed. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Just before serving, taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with bread, spooning some liquid over each serving.

Provided by Antonia Lofaso

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
10 cloves garlic, chopped
1 large pinch red pepper flakes
2 cups crushed canned tomatoes, preferably Italian
1 cup pitted kalamata olives
2 tablespoons drained capers
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 shallots, thinly sliced
4 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
5 cups olive oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1 sprig fresh basil
Five 6-ounce fillets lingcod, about 2 inches thick
Kosher salt
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup torn fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup picked fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Add 1/4 cup olive oil and the garlic to a large Dutch oven over medium heat and cook until the garlic is aromatic, about 2 minutes. (Make sure not to overcook the garlic, as there should be no color.) Add the red pepper flakes, then the crushed tomatoes and the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil and bring to a simmer. Add the olives and capers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the water reduces from the top, about 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then add the rosemary sprigs and allow to steep.
  • For the caramelized shallots: Meanwhile, heat the butter and oil in a 12-inch saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the shallots, sugar and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • For the cod: Heat the oil, garlic and basil in a 14-inch saute pan to 120 degrees F and cook until the garlic is golden brown and the basil has started to wilt. Discard the garlic and basil (they have done their job and seasoned the oil).
  • Season both sides of the cod with salt. Gently place the cod fillets in the pan, making sure they are submerged, and poach until the fillets turn cloudy white and are firm to the touch with a slight bounce, about 8 to 9 minutes. Remove from the oil with a slotted spatula and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • For serving: Lightly toast the pine nuts in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Toss together with the basil, parsley, oil and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
  • Spoon the sauce onto a large platter and nestle the fish on top. Top each filet with a spoonful of caramelized shallots, then sprinkle the pine nut mixture over the fish.
