Shrimp Succotash Food

SUCCOTASH WITH SAUSAGE AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Meanwhile, bring 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Once boiling, add the butter beans and return to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the beans are al dente, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat, strain, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Set aside.
• While the butter beans are cooking, prepare the okra: Spread the okra in an even layer on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Roast the okra for 16 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over medium. Add the Andouille sausage and cook until it's crisp and the fat has rendered. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the onion, bell pepper and garlic to the rendered fat in the skillet or Dutch oven, and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the corn, tomatoes, lima beans, okra, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and Andouille sausage. Stir, cover, and cook for about 8 minutes over medium heat.
• As vegetables cook, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels, then generously season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
• In a separate large (12-inch) skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high. Once the oil is shimmering, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until pink and cooked through. Stir the cooked shrimp into the succotash.
• Add the fresh basil and stir. Taste, and adjust seasoning as needed. Turn off heat and let sit uncovered for about 5 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve warm.

POACHED SHRIMP ON SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Poach shrimp: In a medium pot, combine 6 cups water, Old Bay, and lemon; bring to a boil. Add shrimp and simmer until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, discard lemon, and transfer shrimp to a bowl.
• To serve: Toss shrimp with vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons oil. In a large skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add green beans and cook until bright green, 4 minutes. Add corn and zucchini; saute until crisp-tender, 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Top with shrimp mixture, season with salt and pepper, and serve warm.

SHRIMP SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Place beans in medium bowl. Pour enough cold water over to cover by 3 inches and let stand overnight. Drain.
• Combine 5 cups water, onion slice, celery, garlic and bay leaf in medium saucepan; boil 5 minutes. Add shrimp; simmer just until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Using tongs, transfer shrimp to bowl. Reserve cooking liquid. Peel and devein shrimp; cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add beans to shrimp cooking liquid. Cover and simmer until beans are tender and liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup, adding more water if necessary, about 40 minutes. Discard bay leaf and celery. (Shrimp and beans can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.)
• Cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels. Cut into small pieces. Discard all but 1 teaspoon drippings in skillet. Add chopped onion; sauté over medium-low heat until golden, about 10 minutes. Add corn and beans with their cooking liquid; simmer until corn is tender, about 8 minutes. Add shrimp and bacon; stir until heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chives.

LEMON THYME SUCCOTASH WITH GARLIC PARSLEY SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat two skillets, one over medium heat and the other over medium-high.
• To the hotter pan, add 2 tablespoons olive oil, then the onions, bell peppers, celery salt and pepper. Give the pan a shake.
• To the second skillet, add the remaining olive oil and the butter. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper.
• Saute the shrimp until they become pink and firm 3-5 minutes.
• Add the frozen corn and cannellini beans to the succotash in the first pan.
• Adjust the salt and pepper to taste and then add the thyme and lemon zest. Once the beans and corn have warmed through, turn off the heat.
• Add the parsley and the wine to the shrimp and toss for 1 minute.
• To serve, pile the succotash onto plates and top with the shrimp. Pass the lemon wedges at the table to squeeze over the shrimp.

SUMMER SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat and coat the bottom with oil. Add the sausages and fry until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, reserving the pan. Thinly slice when cool enough to handle, then set aside.
• Pour out and discard most of the grease in the pan, but leave behind any bits. Add enough oil to thoroughly coat the bottom. Add the celery, onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Stir in the black-eyed peas, corn, fava beans, lima beans, butter, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 10 minutes.
• Add the sausage back to the skillet and cook until heated through. Add the tomatoes, lemon juice, zest and parsley. Serve warm.

EDAMAME SUCCOTASH WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes.
• Leaving the drippings in the pan, use tongs to transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels; let cool.
• Add oil to the pan.
• Add scallions (or onion), bell pepper, garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in edamame, corn, broth, vinegar and salt.
• Bring to a simmer; reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes.
