Bonnies Shrimp With A Kick Food

BONNIE'S LEMON CHICKEN AND SHRIMP SOUP

Steps:

• Cook's Note: If you do the prep work first, it is a breeze to put together.
• Chop the cooked chicken into bite size pieces. Thaw the shrimp. I put mine in water in a glass measuring cup and hit 30 seconds in the microwave and let it sit until it thaws. This way the shrimp won't cook and shrink.
• Grate and slice the carrots into rounds.
• Knife cut the cabbage.
• In a medium size dutch oven, add the 6 cups of chicken broth, and add the carrots, cabbage, green onions, ginger, salt, soy sauce, and white pepper. (Leave the cooked chicken and shrimp and add at the end of cooking time)
• Put the soup on the stove and bring to a boil, covered and turn the burner immediately to low, cook about 10 to 15 minutes. Do NOT overcook this soup. Taste test a carrot round, it should be just underdone.
• Add the chopped cooked chicken, stir, then add the noodles and remove from the heat, covered. Let sit 5 minutes.
• Drain the shrimp and add to the pot and add juice of ½ lemon, stir gently. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
• By the way, your waistline will thank you, too!

BONNIE'S SHRIMP AND SCALLOP STEW

Steps:

• 1. Chop the artichoke bottoms and set aside.
• 2. Chop the fennel bulb, onion and mince the garlic.
• 3. Place the shrimp in a bowl of water to thaw. You will add the shrimp in the last step, just to heat it through. It is already cooked. This will keep it from getting tough.
• 4. Thaw the scallops according to package directions.
• 5. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped onion and cook until tender and brown, stirring frequently.
• 6. Add the chopped fennel bulb and cook about five minutes more.
• 7. Add the minced anchovies to the chicken broth and stir. They are soft; you can easily mash them with a fork. The addition of anchovies , which is the secret ingredient, adds great fish flavor to the stew, and no you won't taste anchovies!
• 8. Then add the broth and anchovy mixture to the pot. Add tomatoes, lemon juice, basil and cayenne. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover the pot and simmer 15 minutes.
• 9. Add pasta to the pot and cook 10 minutes, stirring once.
• 10. Add the scallops and chopped artichoke bottoms.
• 11. Simmer over low heat 10 minutes more, then add the shrimp just to warm through and serve immediately with some crusty bread. Enjoy!

BUTTERY KIMCHI SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the kimchi until it resembles a paste. Season the shrimp with kosher salt.
• In a 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, ginger and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add half the shrimp to the pan in one layer and cook undisturbed until they just start turning pink about 1 minute. Flip and cook for about 1 minute more, then remove from the pan and set aside. They may not be fully cooked at this time, and that's O.K. Repeat with remaining shrimp and leave in the pan.
• Add the reserved shrimp back to the pan with any juices that have accumulated. Add the kimchi paste and stir together with the shrimp until everything is well coated and the shrimp is cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from the heat, squeeze with lime and scatter cilantro on top. Make sure to spoon the residual pan sauce on top and season with flaky salt if desired.

KICKIN' SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE FLATBREADS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Put the flatbreads on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside on the baking sheet. Leave the oven on.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
• To a mixing bowl, add the shrimp, olive oil, honey, adobo, salt, chili powder, garlic, some pepper and half of the lime juice. Toss to combine. Saute the shrimp in the hot skillet until cooked through, about 3 minutes.
• Layer 3 ounces of the Monterey Jack on each flatbread, then divide the pineapple and shrimp between each. Top with a sprinkle of the remaining Monterey Jack. Bake until the cheese melts and begins to brown, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the sour cream, cumin, avocado and remaining lime juice to the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade attachment or a blender. Process until smooth.
• Garnish the flatbreads with the feta, a generous drizzle of the avocado-cream mixture and the cilantro. Move the flatbreads to a cutting board, cut into wedges and enjoy.

BACON-WRAPPED CHILI SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
• Melt the butter with the chili powder in a small pan, stirring to combine. Divide the chili butter between 2 separate bowls.
• Wrap each shrimp in a half piece of bacon and skewer with a small skewer or large toothpick. Arrange the shrimp on the wire rack and brush with half of the chili butter (1 of the bowls).
• Bake until the bacon is cooked, 5 to 10 minutes. With a clean brush, brush on more chili butter from the second bowl. Serve on a big platter and sprinkle with sliced green onions.

BONNIE'S AIR FRYER SHRIMP

Steps:

• I used 10 jumbo frozen raw shrimp, with tail on and head off. Select enough shrimp for one single layer in the Air Fryer. Start by thawing shrimp under cold running water for 3 minutes. Drain. Set Air Fryer at 350 degrees. While the shrimp is draining: In a small mixing bowl, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, kosher salt, a teaspoon of garlic powder, and a dash or two of coarse ground pepper. Stir to combine. Blot the thawed shrimp with paper towels and put them in the oil mixture. Add the shrimp and toss gently to coat.
• Place the oiled shrimp in the Air Fryer in one layer, and Cook 7 to 8 minutes or just until they start to turn pink. Serve immediately. 7 minutes was perfect. Enjoy!
• Here is how it looks. Juicy and tender. Enjoy!
