Elegant Shrimp Parmesan Recipes

ELEGANT SHRIMP PARMESAN

Steps:

• 1 Preheat oven to 400°. Mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder and salt in shallow dish. Dip shrimp in eggs, then bread crumb mixture until evenly coated.
• 2 Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and cook 1/2 of the shrimp, turning once, 6 minutes or until shrimp turn pink. With paper towel, wipe pan clean and repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and shrimp.
• 3 Evenly spread 1-1/2 cups sauce in 13 x 9-inch baking dish; top with shrimp. Pour remaining sauce over shrimp, then top with Mozzarella. Bake 7 minutes or until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling.

ELEGANT SHRIMP PASTA

Steps:

• 1. Cook linguini according to package directions. Drain pasta and return to pot; set aside.
• 2. Meanwhile, heat oil in medium saucepan over low heat until warm (oil temperature should register 180 degrees F on deep-fry thermometer). Season shrimp with Adobo. Add shrimp, garlic, thyme and pepper flakes, stirring to coat shrimp in oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is light golden brown and shrimp are pink and opaque, 8-10 minutes. Remove pot from heat. Stir in lemon juice and zest.
• 3. Place reserved pot with linguini over low heat. Add shrimp mixture, stirring until pasta is coated with sauce and shrimp is well distributed, about 1 minute. Remove pot from heat. Stir in parsley. Serve.

SKILLET SHRIMP PARMESAN

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour and a pinch each of salt and black pepper; shake to mix. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. In another large resealable plastic bag, combine the panko, oregano, parsley, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper; shake to mix.
• Working in batches, add the shrimp to the bag of flour and shake to coat. Transfer the floured shrimp to the beaten eggs and turn to coat. Lift the shrimp from the egg, letting the excess drip back into the bowl, then add to the bag of panko and shake to coat. Transfer the breaded shrimp to a baking sheet or plate.
• In a large oven-proof skillet, heat 1/4 inch of oil over medium-high heat until little bubbles appear when you insert a wooden chopstick or the end of a wooden spoon. Carefully add half the breaded shrimp and fry, flipping once, until well browned, about 3 minutes total; reduce the heat if the shrimp browns too quickly. Transfer the shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate or baking sheet to drain. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Position the oven rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler to high. Carefully pour the oil into a heatproof container and let the skillet cool slightly.
• Add the marinara to the skillet and cook over medium heat until bubbling. Arrange the fried shrimp in the skillet in an even layer, then sprinkle the mozzarella and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan on top. Broil for 1 to 3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and browned in spots. Garnish the shrimp Parmesan with basil leaves and serve with crushed red pepper and additional Parmesan, for sprinkling.
