PRAWN (JUMBO SHRIMP) AND ZUCCHINI IN GORGONZOLA SAUCE



Prawn (Jumbo Shrimp) and Zucchini in Gorgonzola Sauce image

A warm comforting dish that came from inspiration of a box of black rice and some leftover frozen prawns. It is rather quick and easy but doesn't taste like it! Not at all low fat but you have to spoil yourself sometimes! :) Goes great with Forbidden rice risotto, but would be nice on top of pasta as well.

JUMBO SHRIMP WITH FREGOLA



Jumbo Shrimp with Fregola image

Editor's note: This recipe is adapted from Sardinian chef Raffaele Solinas. Solinas also shared some helpful cooking tips exclusively with Epicurious, which we've added at the bottom of the page. In this recipe, a simple fish broth enhances the flavor of the shrimp. Though head-on shrimp can be difficult to find, it's worth the extra effort to seek them out - they contribute depth and richness. The fregola should absorb enough broth to swell and soften, but the dish should retain a soupy consistency. This dish is traditionally served with carta da musica, a crisp Sardinian flatbread, and accompanied by a flavorful dry white wine such as Vermentino.
