SHRIMP PROVENCAL



Shrimp Provencal image

For a gourmet meal this is very easy to prepare. Leftovers reheat well the next day too! Instead of using fresh shrimp like the recipe originally called (took too long the first time I did it) we now use frozen, raw, peeled and it tastes the exact same, but with 1/4 of the time! This is great over rice and served with French bread.

Return the chicken and the shrimp to the pan and reheat for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle in pistachios and then divide among 4 plates.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, wild-caught shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Be sure to devein the shrimp before cooking. This will remove the digestive tract, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the shrimp. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque and pink. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your Provencal shrimp sauté. Some good options include zucchini, bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes.
  • Season the shrimp sauté with fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of white wine for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Provencal shrimp sauté is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. Serve the shrimp sauté over rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables. You can also enjoy it as a main course or as an appetizer.
