SHRIMP WITH GARLIC AND CHILI PEPPER



Shrimp with Garlic and Chili Pepper image

Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 7m

Yield 1 servings or 4 appetizer portions

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 fresh red chile, according to size and taste, minced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 pound unshelled medium shrimp
1/2 cup white wine
Salt, if needed
1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Pour the olive oil into a wide, heavy-bottomed frying pan. Then add the chile and garlic and, over moderate to low heat, to infuse rather than to color, fry for 2 minutes, stirring all the time. Then turn the heat to high, add the shrimp, and stir-fry them for another 2 minutes or until they turn pink and are just, delicately, cooked; you want the flesh to stay tender. Pour in the white wine and let it bubble up. You don't want a liquid puddle around the shrimp, just enough wine to let the juices ooze into a winy sauce. Another minute or so should do it. Season with the salt, if necessary, and then turn into your bowl and sprinkle with parsley. Eat with some good hunks of baguette. I eat these carapace, head, and all: one of the reasons I designate them for solitary dinner.
  • If you want, you can add a tablespoonful or so of brandy before throwing in the wine.

I got this recipe through a recipe exchange with a friend and it is very good! It does have quiet a few steps and ingredients but it is definitely worth it.

Provided by sofie-a-toast

Categories     Creole

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/4 cup kosher salt
1 lb linguine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons creole seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup jalapeno, finely chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 cup diced tomato
1/2 cup reserved pasta cooking water
1 cup monterey jack pepper cheese, grated
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
2 tablespoons basil leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Set a large 1-gallon stock pot of water to a boil and add the kosher salt. Place the linguine in the pot and stir the pot until the water returns to a boil. Cook the pasta until tender, but with a bit of resistance (al dente), about 12 minutes. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup pasta water.
  • While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce. Set a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the pan. Once the butter has melted, season the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of the creole seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and add the shrimp to the pan. Sear the shrimp until well browned on both sides, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the onions and jalapenos to the pan and saute until the onions are softened and lightly caramelized, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the cream, remaining 1 tablespoon of creole seasoning, remaining 1 1/4 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce until the cream is reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
  • Return the shrimp to the pan, and add the tomatoes, linguine and the reserved cooking water to the pan and cook, tossing to incorporate for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and add the Pepper Jack, Parmesan and basil and toss to blend. Serve immediately.

Provided by LifeIsGood

Categories     Vietnamese

Time 1h30m

Yield 20 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 23

3 ounces vietnamese cellophane noodles, cooked according to pkg. directions
2 cups bean sprouts
2 carrots, thinly sliced
1 large beet, thinly sliced
1 fresh red chili pepper, cut into circles
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
3/4 cup salted peanuts, chopped
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 lime, juice of
sea salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon sugar
20 (8 inch) round rice paper sheets
20 cooked medium shrimp, tails off, halved lengthwise
40 mint leaves
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup hot water
2 tablespoons sugar
1 lime, juice of
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sambal oelek (red chili paste)
2 tablespoons grated carrots
2 tablespoons grated daikon radishes

Steps:

  • Put the cooked cellophane noodles, veggies, cilantro and peanuts in a bowl and toss with the sesame oil and lime juice. Season with the salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a large shallow bowl, dilute the sugar in 3 cups of hot water and stir.
  • One at a time, immerse the rice paper spring roll wrappers in the hot water for 10 seconds and then place them on a damp towel. Keep them covered while you work to prevent them drying out and curling up. (The rice paper is very delicate so don't soak them any longer than 10 seconds.).
  • To form the rolls: lay a rice paper wrapper on a flat surface. Take a small amount of the cellophane noodle & veggie mixture and lay it across the bottom third. Use less filling than you think you should; if you overstuff the wrapper it will tear. Carefully fold the bottom of the wrapper up to cover the filling then fold in the left and right sides, then tuck and roll it over once.
  • Lay 2 pieces of shrimp on top, then tuck and roll it over again.
  • Lay 2 mint leaves on top and then tuck and roll it over to close the whole thing up. The shrimp and mint leaves should show through the transparent rice paper. Arrange the finished rolls on a platter and cover with a damp cloth.
  • To prepare sauce: Puree the rice wine vinegar, fish sauce, hot water, sugar, lime juice, garlic and sambal oelek in a blender until all combined. Pour into a serving bowl and add the grated carrot and radish mix.
  • Serve the shrimp rolls with the sweet chili dipping sauce.
