CLASSIC SHRIMP SCAMPI



Classic Shrimp Scampi image

This is one of those classic dishes that doesn't need anything more. It's always about allowing the subtle sweetness and brininess of the shrimp to coexist peacefully with the garlic and oil. You need some butter to balance the olive oil for the taste of the sauce. You also need canola oil for high-heat cooking of the shrimp. Once these ingredients come together, you will understand. Serve this dish with buttered pasta or loaves of seriously crusty bread. I have also been known to go overboard and make buttery garlic bread on the side.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 teaspoons plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
Sixteen 16/20 shrimp, shelled and deveined, tails on
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 large cloves garlic, grated on a rasp
3/4 cup dry white wine
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
2 dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco
1 large lemon, zested and halved
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Crusty bread, optional

Steps:

  • Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat, then add the panko and cook, stirring constantly, until the breadcrumbs are golden and toasty-scented, about 2 minutes. Set aside.
  • Sprinkle the shrimp on both sides with salt. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the canola oil. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, quickly arrange the shrimp in a single layer, with a little space between each. Brown the shrimp on their first sides, adding a couple of pieces of the butter around the shrimp to add flavor as they brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the shrimp on their second sides and brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Quickly transfer the shrimp to a plate.
  • Return the skillet to medium heat. Add the remaining butter and the garlic to the skillet. Press the garlic into the melting butter to break up any clumps. Add the wine and stir up the brown bits in the bottom of the skillet. Add the Worcestershire, hot sauce and lemon zest. Simmer until the garlic softens and the wine reduces down to a lush sauce, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the parsley and squeeze the juice from half a lemon into the sauce.
  • Return the shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle with the red pepper flakes. Toss the shrimp in the sauce to coat well. Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with some more lemon juice and the toasted panko and transfer to a platter.
  • Serve with crusty bread, if using.

1/2 cup all-purposes flour
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1 pound (about 25 pieces) (21/25 count) shrimp, cleaned and shells removed
3 tablespoons clarified butter (you will need 1/4 cup to begin with if clarifying your own)
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup white wine

1 cup white rice
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Season flour with black pepper and crab boil seasoning and dredge shrimp in flour mixture. Heat clarified butter over medium-high heat and add shrimp and garlic. When shrimp begins to turn pink, douse with white wine to de-glaze pan and squeeze just 1/2 of the lemon over the shrimp (reserving the other half for later), then transfer shrimp to a utility platter, cover and set aside in a warm place.
  • Reduce heat to medium and to the liquids in the pan, add just 3 tablespoons of the fresh basil (reserving balance for garnish), capers, red bell pepper, jalapeno, and white mushrooms and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes to integrate flavors. Then, add the can of tomatoes in puree and allow to cook, partially covered, for about 25 minutes to reduce and thicken, seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste, as needed.
  • While the sauce is reducing, bring 2 1/2 cups water to boil. Add the rice along with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon butter. Return to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes leaving undisturbed. Then remove from heat and leave rice covered for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove sauce from heat and stir in cream. Reserve 4 pieces of shrimp for garnish and stir rest of shrimp into sauce. Place rice in center of serving dish. Spoon sauce with shrimp onto rice, and garnish with 4 reserved pieces of shrimp. Squeeze remaining 1/2 of lemon over shrimp. Garnish with reserved freshly chopped basil and serve.

SHRIMP SCAMPI



Shrimp Scampi image

Garlicky, buttery shrimp scampi is an Italian-American restaurant staple that takes little more than a skillet and 15 minutes of your time to make at home.

Provided by Lidia Bastianich

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 shallots, peeled and chopped (about ½ cup)
7 garlic cloves, crushed and peeled
¾ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds extra-large or jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2½ teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups dry white wine
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs, if needed

Steps:

  • Combine the shallots, five garlic cloves, and 2 tablespoons of the oil in a mini-food processor. Process to make a smooth paste.
  • Pour 6 tablespoons olive oil and the remaining garlic into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Let the garlic sizzle for a minute, then add half of the shrimp and all of the thyme sprigs. Season with ½ teaspoon salt, and cook until the shrimp are seared but not fully cooked, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a plate, and repeat with the remaining shrimp and another ½ teaspoon salt. Remove the shrimp and thyme from the skillet to the plate.
  • Add the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil and the garlic-shallot paste to the same skillet set over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the paste has dried out and begins to stick to the bottom of the skillet, about 2 to 3 minutes. Return the thyme to the skillet, and pour in the white wine, lemon juice, the remaining 1½ teaspoons salt, 4 tablespoons of the butter, and 1 cup water. Bring the sauce to a rapid boil, and cook until reduced by half, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • When the sauce has reduced, whisk in the remaining butter and return the shrimp to the pan. Cook and toss until the shrimp are coated with the sauce and just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley. If the sauce still seems too thin, stir in the bread crumbs and bring to a boil just to thicken. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you must use frozen shrimp, thaw them properly before cooking.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so it is important to watch them closely to avoid overcooking. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Olive oil is a key ingredient in shrimp scampi, so it is important to use a good quality oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice, as it has a richer flavor and aroma.
  • Add plenty of garlic. Garlic is another key ingredient in shrimp scampi. Do not be afraid to add a lot of garlic, as it will add a delicious flavor to the dish.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, and thyme, can really brighten up the flavor of shrimp scampi. Add them at the end of cooking to preserve their flavor.
  • Serve immediately. Shrimp scampi is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the shrimp are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Shrimp scampi is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its simple ingredients and quick cooking time, shrimp scampi is a great choice for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. Whether you are a beginner cook or a seasoned pro, you are sure to enjoy this classic Italian dish.
