SHRIMP SCAMPI WITH TOMATOES, PASTA, AND ROASTED ASPARAGUS



Shrimp Scampi with Tomatoes, Pasta, and Roasted Asparagus image

This is a great date night meal! It will make a ton of leftovers, so you can send some home with your boo. I make this with a decent bottle of Sauvignon Blanc because the acidity in the wine pairs well with the lemon juice and the fresh cut grass-like aromas of the asparagus. Chill the rest of the bottle and have it with your meal! Remember to always use a wine that you enjoy the flavor of by itself if you're going to cook with it because the food takes on the flavor of the wine.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound penne pasta
½ cup butter
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon minced garlic, or more to taste
1 tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley, or more to taste
½ lemon, juiced
¼ cup white wine, or more to taste
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain pasta and return to the pot.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon garlic, parsley, lemon juice, and white wine. Place shrimp and tomatoes in a small glass baking dish and pour butter sauce on top. Stir until shrimp and tomatoes are well coated.
  • Combine asparagus, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper in a second glass baking dish.
  • Place both baking dishes side by side in the oven and bake until shrimp is fully pink, about 15 minutes. Pour shrimp, tomatoes, and butter over the cooked penne pasta and stir to combine.

SUMMER SHRIMP SCAMPI WITH TOMATOES AND CORN



Summer Shrimp Scampi With Tomatoes and Corn image

Shrimp get along well with garlic, butter and lemon, and so do tomatoes and corn. Combine them, and you get a summery shrimp scampi that comes together in one skillet. A searing hot pan helps the tomatoes blister and the corn caramelize before they are coated in a garlic-lemon butter sauce. This is a meal in and of itself, but if you want to serve it with pasta or bread, they'd be welcome additions.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels (from 4 ears)
5 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon), plus wedges for serving (optional)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 5 pieces
3 tablespoons chopped parsley or chives, or torn basil leaves

Steps:

  • Pat the shrimp very dry and season with salt and pepper. In a large (12-inch) skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and lightly golden in spots, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the shrimp to a plate.
  • Add the tomatoes to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring just once or twice, until they start to blister in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the corn, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring just once or twice, until the tomatoes burst and the corn is golden in spots, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until you smell garlic, about 1 minute.
  • Reduce heat to medium, and add the wine and lemon juice, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until nearly evaporated, then add the butter and stir until melted. Add the shrimp and its juices and stir until warmed through. (If the sauce breaks and looks greasy, add 1 or 2 teaspoons of water and stir until emulsified.)
  • Remove from heat, add the herbs, season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve with extra lemon for squeezing over, if you like.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp.
  • Devein the shrimp: Deveining the shrimp removes the digestive tract, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat.
  • Use high-quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil has a fruity, peppery flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients in shrimp scampi.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the shrimp will steam instead of sautéing and won't get as flavorful.
  • Cook the shrimp until they're opaque: Shrimp are done cooking when they're opaque and pink. If you overcook them, they'll become tough and rubbery.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes and garlic towards the end of cooking: This will prevent them from overcooking and becoming mushy.
  • Serve immediately: Shrimp scampi is best served immediately, while the shrimp are still hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Shrimp scampi is an easy and delicious seafood dish. It's perfect for a quick weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner.
