Categories     Appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb large shrimp peeled and deveined
Kosher salt
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
10 garlic cloves, (chopped)
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes ((start with less if you don't want it too spicy))
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons dry sherry or dry white wine
Juice of ½ lemon
½ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Pat the shrimp dry and season with kosher salt. Set aside for now.
  • Heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium heat up to 60 seconds or until the garlic gains some color (be careful not to burn it).
  • Add the shrimp and paprika. Cook briefly, tossing regularly, and watching that the flesh turns opaque with a pearly pink color (about 3 minutes or so; this will depend on the size of the shrimp). Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Stir in sherry, lemon juice and parsley.
  • Transfer the shrimp and sauce to a serving bowl. Serve with your favorite crusty bread.

SPANISH GARLIC SHRIMP (GAMBAS AL AJILLO)



Spanish Garlic Shrimp (Gambas al Ajillo) image

Every Spanish restaurant serves this dish of shrimp cloaked in garlic-infused olive oil with smoky hints of paprika and a touch of sweetness from sherry. Make sure you have all your ingredients together before you head to the stove since, start to finish, this cooks in mere minutes. It's great for a tapas party, since you can prep everything ahead of time. Just spoon the shrimp and sauce over toasted bread and sprinkle more cayenne and parsley on top to enjoy.

CUMIN-LIME SHRIMP WITH GINGER



Cumin-Lime Shrimp With Ginger image

These quick, flavorful shrimp are versatile enough to work their way into an assortment of weeknight dinners. Fold into soft tortillas and top with sliced avocado for shrimp tacos, or serve over steamed rice studded with tomatoes, chiles and fresh herbs. They also work well served on top of a red or green cabbage salad. If cumin's not your thing, feel free to swap in another dried, warm spice, such as coriander or curry powder.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weekday, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined (16 to 20 shrimp)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon grated garlic
Pinch of red-pepper flakes (optional)
1/4 cup lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
3 tablespoons roughly chopped cilantro
Flaky salt (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss together the shrimp and the cumin until well coated. Season with kosher salt and toss again.
  • Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. 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. Stir in the ginger, garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring to make sure the garlic doesn't burn. Add the lime juice to pan and scrape up any brown bits that have formed at the bottom of the pan. Cook until the mixture is reduced by about half, about 1 minute more. Stir in the lime zest and scatter with the cilantro. Season with flaky salt, if desired.
