Hot Garlic Shrimp Asparagus Recipes

GARLIC SHRIMP AND ASPARAGUS RISOTTO

Steps:

• Pour chicken broth into a pot; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add Arborio rice; cook, stirring frequently, until coated with oil, about 4 minutes.
• Stir 1/2 cup of the hot chicken broth into the saucepan; cook and stir until the rice has absorbed the broth, about 2 minutes. Repeat this process 4 more times, stirring constantly, until rice is creamy and tender yet firm to the bite, about 15 minutes.
• Stir shrimp and asparagus into the remaining hot broth. Cook until shrimp turns pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove broth from heat.
• Stir shrimp and asparagus into the rice; cook for 1 minute. Stir Parmesan cheese and butter into the rice; cook until melted, about 1 minute. Remove rice from heat. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle parsley over each serving.

• Place asparagus on the prepared baking pan and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; toss until well coated. Arrange asparagus in a single layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven until slightly tender, about 6 minutes.
• Remove from oven and place shrimp on one side of the pan. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and smoked paprika; toss until well coated. Place shrimp in a single layer next to the asparagus. Top asparagus and shrimp with cubed butter.

SPAGHETTI WITH SHRIMP AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Peel the shrimp, cover them with heavily salted cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes.
• In a skillet, soften the onion and the garlic in the olive oil. Add the tomatoes, thyme, pepper and pepper flakes and simmer gently, covered, for 15 minutes. If the sauce gets too thick, add a little water.
• Slice the asparagus on the bias into two-inch pieces. Place in a steamer and steam until bright green but al dente.
• Meanwhile, bring six quarts salted water to boil and cook the spaghetti until al dente.
• When the spaghetti is nearly done, drain and rinse the shrimp. Add them to the sauce and cook for two minutes. Add the asparagus and cook a further one minute. Drain the spaghetti and place in a heated serving bowl. Top with the sauce and the parsley and serve.
