Shrimp And Corn Risotto Food

SHRIMP WITH WHOLE GRAIN CORN-OAT RISOTTO

Steps:

• Remove the kernels from the corn cobs and set the kernels aside. Hold the cobs over a large saucepan and use the back of a knife to scrape down the cobs to "milk" them of any corn liquid. Drop the scraped cobs into the saucepan and add 8 cups of water and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced to 6 cups, about 30 minutes. Strain and keep warm.
• Make the risotto: Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until the onion is translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the corn kernels and 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the corn just starts to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the oats and stir until coated. Add 1 cup of wine and simmer, stirring constantly, until the wine is absorbed, about 1 minute. Add 3 cups of the warm corn broth to the oats. Simmer, stirring constantly, until most of the liquid is absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 2 more cups of broth and simmer, stirring constantly, until the oats are tender but slightly toothsome, about 10 to 12 minutes more. Remove from the heat, stir in the Parmesan and season to taste with salt. Adjust the consistency of the risotto by adding more of the broth as necessary. Cover and set aside to keep warm.
• Make the shrimp: Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp in one crowded layer and cook until the shrimp are a deep pinkish orange on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the shrimp over, add the remaining 1/2 cup wine, garlic and red pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until the shrimp is opaque throughout and the wine has reduced slightly. Add the lemon juice, parsley, remaining 1 tablespoon butter and salt to taste. Remove from the heat, swirl the skillet until the butter melts and toss the shrimp to coat in the sauce.
• Transfer the risotto to a deep platter and top with the shrimp and sauce and serve immediately.

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook garlic, stirring, for 30 seconds; add bulgur and salt; stir 1 minute more. Gradually stir in 2 cups boiling water, 1/2 cup at a time (waiting until bulgur absorbs it to add more), until bulgur is slightly soupy, 8 to 10 minutes. (You might not use all the water.) Add shrimp. Cook, stirring constantly, until it turns pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Add corn, bell pepper, juice from 1 lime and red pepper flakes; stir, adding water to keep mixture creamy. Cook, stirring, until corn and pepper are warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes. Add cilantro; serve with lime wedges.

• Remove from heat, vent pressure, and remove lid. Stir in remaining 1 cup broth and shrimp and cook over medium until shrimp are opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, herbs, and remaining tablespoon butter. Serve topped with additional herbs.

CORN AND YELLOW TOMATO RISOTTO WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Bring stock to a simmer in a saucepan.
• Chop the onion.
• Heat the oil in a nonstick pot, and saute the onion until it takes on a little color.
• Meanwhile, start scraping corn off the cobs.
• When the onion is ready, stir in the rice until it is well coated.
• Stir in the vermouth, and cook until it has evaporated, a couple of minutes. Continue scraping corn off the cobs.
• When the wine has evaporated, add about a cup of the stock to the rice and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until liquid has been absorbed. Repeat until rice is tender but firm.
• Meanwhile, finish scraping corn; wash, trim and coarsely chop the tomatoes.
• After adding next to the last cup of stock, wash, dry and chop the basil. About 2 minutes before the rice is cooked, add corn kernels, tomatoes and basil, and stir well. You may not need to add all of the stock.
• Grate the cheese, and stir into the rice just before serving. Season with pepper.
• Arrange the risotto on a platter, and surround with shrimp.

TOMATO CORN RISOTTO WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Drain tomatoes into a sieve; allow the liquids to drain into a saucepan. Add the vegetable broth, and heat to a simmer. Keep the pan over low heat.
• Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large casserole or skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more, until fragrant. Add the rice, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Add the white wine and stir until completely absorbed.
• Begin to add the heated broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is almost completely absorbed before adding the next. When the rice has cooked for 15 minutes and most of the liquid has been incorporated, add the corn kernels, tomatoes and shrimp, along with the last of the broth. Cook, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender but al dente, and the shrimp is pink and cooked through. This should take 18 to 20 minutes of cooking in total.
• Stir in the Parmesan cheese, most of the basil, and the salt and pepper. Spoon the risotto immediately onto plates, top with the remaining basil strands, and serve.

COCONUT RICE WITH SHRIMP AND CORN

Steps:

• In a large, heavy pot, heat coconut oil over medium. Add the onion, ginger and jalapeño and season with the 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the onion is soft and translucent, about 6 minutes.
• Add the rice and sauté for another minute. Then stir in the coconut milk and 1 1/4 cups water. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer but avoid scorching.
• Stir in the shrimp and corn, cover again, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is cooked through and the rice is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. (Add more water by 1/2 cups throughout cooking as needed if the water has been absorbed, but the rice is still too firm.)
• Remove from the heat and stir in the lime zest and basil; season to taste with salt. Serve immediately with lime wedges and topped with more basil.
