HOT-SAUCE SHRIMP

Steps:

• Pat the shrimp dry and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Put the butter and hot sauce in a large bowl.
• Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet over high. Add the scallions and cook until softened and browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the scallions to the bowl with the butter and hot sauce.
• Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, adding more oil if the pan is dry. Flip and cook until opaque all the way through, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Transfer the shrimp and any juices to the butter, hot sauce and scallions. Toss vigorously until the butter is melted and the shrimp is glossy. Taste, and add more hot sauce and salt as needed.

Steps:

• 1. In a medium-size saucepan, heat 6 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery, and 1 garlic cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes.
• 2. Add the shrimp shells and wine, bring to a boil, and simmer until reduced by half, about 4 to 6 minutes. Add the chicken broth, tomato, thyme, bay leaf, parsley, tarragon, tomato paste, salt, and pepper (to taste). Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
