Overnight Beer Herb Shrimp Food

OVERNIGHT BEER-BOILED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Rinse shrimp under cold running water and set in a strainer to drain.
• Meanwhile, add beer, paprika, vinegar, seafood seasoning, celery seed, celery salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to a large pot over high heat. Bring to a boil and add shrimp. Immediately turn off the heat and let cool on the stovetop for about 1 hour. Cover the pot and transfer to the top shelf of the refrigerator, placing it on top of a thick towel. Let shrimp soak for 12 to 24 hours.
• Drain shrimp in a strainer and discard remaining marinating liquid.

BEER-BOILED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until transparent, about 5 minutes. Mix in the salt and shrimp. Pour the beer over the shrimp, and simmer just until the shrimp turn pink. Turn off the heat, and allow the shrimp to sit at least 1/2 hour. Serve while still warm, or refrigerate and reheat before serving.

THE BEST BEER BATTERED FISH

Steps:

• Season the fish with salt and pepper.
• Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl with a whisk.
• Dredge the fillets well in the flour mix, shaking off any excess. Refrigerate fillets until ready to fry.
• When the oil is hot, add the beer and honey to the flour mixture and stir well. A couple of lumps are preferable, so don't overwork it. Add a couple ice cubes to the batter.
• Dip a couple of fillets into the batter, coating them completely. Allow any excess batter to drain off.
• Gently place them into the 375°F oil and fry for 30 seconds.
• Flip the fillet, exposing the more-cooked bottom. Drizzle a little bit of batter on top. Flip the fillet back over and drizzle a little batter on top again. Don't overdo it, but just add a thin layer of additional batter.
• Fry the fish until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes total for fish that's an inch thick. Serve immediately.

GRILLED HERB SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients and allow them to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
• Skewer the shrimp. I use 3 or 4 shrimp on a 12-inch skewer for dinner. Heat a grill with coals and brush the grill with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Grill the shrimp for only 1 1/2 minutes on each side.

CAJUN GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Mix together. Marinade for up to 24 hours. Skewer and grill, 3 minutes per side, or until tender. Serve warm or refrigerate to serve later.

GRILLED ROSEMARY GARLIC SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large bowl stir together garlic, minced rosemary, and 3 tablespoons oil and add shrimp. Marinate shrimp, covered and chilled, at least 4 hours or overnight.
• In a shallow dish soak skewers in water to cover 30 minutes and prepare grill.
• To grill, thread 4 shrimp on each skewer and brush with additional oil. Grill shrimp on an oiled rack, set about 5 inches over glowing coals, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through.
• Alternatively, brush shrimp with additional oil and grill in a hot well-season ridged grill pan, covered, over moderately high heat 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
• Garnish shrimp with rosemary sprigs and serve with lemon wedges.

BEST EVER SHRIMP MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients for marinade together then marinate shrimp in a medium-sized bowl for 15 minutes.
• GRILLING METHOD: Preheat BBQ to 425 F. Add shrimp to skewers, then place on a baking sheet. Drizzle some extra marinade overtop then discard remaining marinade. Grill shrimp for 2 minutes per side until pink and fully cooked. Serve and enjoy!
• STOVETOP METHOD: Add 1 tbsp butter or olive oil to a large skillet over med-high heat (I recommend butter for better flavour). Add shrimp along with marinade to skillet, sauteeing for 3-4 minutes or until shrimp are pink and no longer translucent. Serve and enjoy!
• BROILER METHOD: Set oven to broil on high. Add shrimp to skewers, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle some extra marinade overtop then discard remaining marinade. Broil shrimp for 1-2 minutes per side (watching closely) until pink and fully cooked. Serve and enjoy!

BEER MARINATED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients and pour over peeled and cooked shrimp.
• Marinate covered in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight, if desired.
• You can also use the marinade for chicken, steak, or fish before grilling, but reserve a little for basting before you pour it over the raw meat.

• Place the olive oil, honey, soy sauce, lemon zest, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper in a bowl. Whisk to combine.
• Reserve 1 tablespoon of the marinade for later use. Add the garlic and chili flakes to the bowl.
• Add the shrimp and marinade to a resealable freezer bag and seal. Shake to coat the shrimp with the marinade.
• Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.
• At this point you can broil, grill or saute the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side or until pink and opaque.
• Drizzle the reserved marinade over the cooked shrimp, then serve.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except lettuce and green onions in a bowl. Cover, Refrigerate overnight; stir occasionally. Drain, reserve marinade. Broil shrimp 4 inches from heat until cooked and tender (about 2 minutes on each side, less for small shrimp). Do not overcook or shrimp will become tough. Brush occasionally with marinade. Serve shrimp on shredded lettuce; sprinkle with chopped green onion.
