SHRIMP STEW FOR TWO



Shrimp Stew for Two image

A stew should be as comforting to cook as it is to eat. In this effortless one-pot meal, a spicy, aromatic broth is tinged red with gochugaru, a Korean red-pepper powder. You want to use jumbo shrimp or prawns for this; be sure to get shell-on crustaceans (and head-on if you can), as they're essential to flavoring this simple dish with their incredible nuttiness. Bitter greens and sweet radishes add vegetal heft as well as complexity to the broth, which you should definitely sop up with bread or rice. If seafood dishes like bouillabaisse, cioppino and maeuntang excite you, then this brothy wonder will delight and nourish.

Categories     weeknight, soups and stews, main course

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large shallots, thinly sliced crosswise
Salt and black pepper
4 large garlic cloves, finely grated
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons gochugaru, plus more to taste (see Tip)
8 ounces broccoli rabe, Tuscan kale or other sturdy bitter greens, coarsely chopped
8 to 10 shell-on jumbo shrimp or 4 tiger prawns, preferably head-on, deveined (about 8 ounces)
6 ounces radishes, thinly sliced (1 ½ cups)
1 tablespoon fish sauce, plus more to taste
Pinch of granulated sugar, plus more to taste
Toasted crusty bread or steamed white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high. Add half of the shallots, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and starting to brown at the edges, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in the garlic and ginger, and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Add the olive oil and gochugaru, stirring constantly until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Raise the heat to high and add 2 cups water. Scrape the stuck-on bits off the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon, and bring the broth to a boil.
  • Add the broccoli rabe and nestle in the shrimp. Reduce the heat and gently simmer the shrimp, turning them once halfway through, until pink and just barely cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. The broccoli rabe should be bright green and considerably wilted.
  • Stir in the remaining shallots, the radishes, fish sauce and sugar. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, gochugaru, fish sauce or sugar as needed.
  • Serve the stew in wide bowls with a plate on the side for the shrimp shells, and some crusty bread or steamed rice for sopping up the aromatic juices.

You can also take the dish in a number of directions: Substitute the shrimp with an equal amount of flaky white fish or even seared scallops, or stretch the dish into a meal for six by stirring in some butter and serving over cooked spaghetti or rigatoni. A good glug of your best olive oil would also be a welcome.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weeknight, beans, one pot, seafood, vegetables, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest and 2 tablespoons juice
1 teaspoon sweet or smoked paprika
2 garlic cloves, grated
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound peeled, deveined large shrimp (tails removed)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
2 large leeks, trimmed, then halved lengthwise, white and light green parts sliced crosswise 1/2-inch thick (or 1 large onion, minced)
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans or other white beans, rinsed
2 cups chicken stock or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Toasted bread, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine lemon zest, paprika, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat.
  • In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. When butter is foaming, add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and starting to curl, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to a plate; set aside.
  • Add leeks, season with salt and pepper, and cook over medium until leeks are soft and starting to brown on the edges, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add beans and chicken broth and bring to a boil over high. Lower heat and simmer, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in reserved shrimp and any juices from the plate, parsley and lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with toasted bread.

Tips:

  • Use fresh and high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your stew.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too much shrimp and onion to the pan, they will not cook evenly and the stew will be watery.
  • Cook the shrimp and onion until they are just cooked through. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of spices and seasonings to flavor the stew. This will give it a more complex and interesting flavor.
  • Serve the stew immediately over rice or noodles. It can also be served with crusty bread for dipping.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and onion stew is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. The stew can be made with a variety of different spices and seasonings, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. Serve the stew over rice or noodles, or with crusty bread for dipping.
