Time 42m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups chicken stock
2 cups heavy cream
2 1/2 cups raw yellow grits, not instant
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
2 cups shredded Havarti cheese
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 pound peeled and deveined bay shrimp, 30/40 count
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 cup green onions, thinly chopped on the bias
1/4 pound butter, whipped with 1 tablespoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • In a sauce pot over high heat, bring the chicken stock to a simmer, then add the cream, grits, and seafood seasoning. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook until the mixture has thickened and all the liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, add the cheese, and stir thoroughly to blend, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the grits from the heat and keep warm.
  • In a saute pan over medium heat, add the grapeseed oil and shrimp, and cook, stirring, until the shrimp are faint pink in color, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, salt, white pepper, and green onions and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Turn the heat off and add the flavored butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the shrimp, then remove the pan from the stove.
  • Divide the grits among the plates and spoon the shrimp-tomato mixture over the top and serve.

SHRIMP ROBBY

We used to serve this at Robby's Seafood, a restaurant I worked at while at university in Hattiesburg, MS. Serve these little darlins' as an appetizer or as a main with dirty rice, hot French bread, and a salad. Oh, and don't forget the cold beer to put the fire out!

Categories     Spicy

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 large shrimp (prawns)
8 slices bacon, raw
16 slices jalapeno peppers
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
16 toothpicks (soak in water before using)
1/8 cup butter (for basting) (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel, wash, and de-vein shrimp. Leave shell only on the tip of the tail for better handling. Butterfly shrimp (cut along the back but not straight through) to make room to insert a slice of jalapeƱo. Put in fridge to keep them cold while you prepare the bacon.
  • Cut bacon strips in half and cook to medium doneness either in pan, oven, or in microwave (cooking time depends on method of cooking and heat setting). You want them about half cooked so they are still flimsy. They will finish cooking once on the grill.
  • Once bacon is cooked to medium, drain on paper towels or newspaper. Insert one slice of jalapeno pepper (I use the jar kind and remove the seeds to make them milder) into the center of the back of the shrimp. Close shrimp around pepper and wrap the shrimp with one piece of bacon. I usually have a small bit of shrimp sticking out at the top and the tail sticking out at the bottom. Secure the bacon, shrimp, and pepper together by inserting a toothpick so that you have gone right through from one side of the shrimp to the other. Remember to wash up good after handling raw seafood and pork.
  • Cook shrimp on a medium-hot barbecue grill or gas grill, turning once or twice after 2 or 3 minutes. Once they have been turned and partially cooked on each side, baste in a nice smoky BBQ sauce and cook on each side for a further 2 to 3 minutes (or until both bacon and shrimp are fully cooked).
  • Sometimes we leave a few with no BBQ sauce, just to mix it up a bit. In that case, we might baste in a bit of butter just to keep the shrimp and bacon moist.
  • For those who do not like spicy, leave the jalapeƱos out or just use a tiny piece of a slice.
  • Note: Do not overcook these as they will get tough. Each person should get 4 shrimp each. Of course, you may serve more if you like -- we like!

1/4 lb sliced mushrooms
3 green onions, chopped
1 1/2 lbs peeled raw shrimp

Tips:

  • To make sure the shrimp are cooked evenly, use medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the shrimp. If you put too many shrimp in the pan at once, they will not cook evenly.
  • For a more flavorful sauce, use a good quality white wine. A dry white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, will work well.
  • If you don't have any shallots, you can use a small onion instead. Just chop the onion finely.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately after cooking. They are best when they are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Shrimp Robert is a classic French dish that is easy to make and always impressive. The combination of shrimp, butter, white wine, and shallots is simple but delicious. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. If you are looking for a new shrimp recipe to try, give Shrimp Robert a try. You won't be disappointed.
