Shrimp And Chorizo Saute Recipes

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO SAUTE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 T oil over medium heat.
• Add the chorizo and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Add the remaining 2 T oil, the garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet and cook, shaking the pan a bit, until the garlic is lightly golden.
• Increase the heat to high, add the shrimp and stir to coat.
• Add the wine and cook, stirring, until the pan is nearly dry, 2-3 minutes. (You do want some pan juice for the finished dish.).
• Return the chorizo to the pan, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the parsley.
• Cook until the chorizo is hot and the shrimp is opaque, about 2 minutes.
• Place the toasts on 4 plates. Spoon the shrimp, chorizo and pan juices on top.

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO TAPAS

Steps:

• In a large skillet or cazuela, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and saute the sliced chorizo until it begins to brown around the edges, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized around the edges and softened somewhat, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup of the sherry and cook for 1 minute. Add the shrimp, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of sherry and 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, parsley and remainder of the salt and pepper; stir to combine and remove from the heat. Serve immediately, on small plates with any accumulated cooking juices spooned over the top. Pass the bread at the table.

ONE PAN SPANISH CHORIZO & SHRIMP

Steps:

• Place the shelled shrimp in a bowl, season with the salt, pepper and paprika and toss to ensure they are all evenly coated in the spices.
• Heat the oil in a pan on medium high heat. Add in the shrimp and sear for 2 minutes per side until pink. Remove the cooked shrimp from the pan and set aside on a plate.
• Add the chopped chorizo to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes until the chorizo slices are golden and slightly crispy. Add the diced onion and garlic to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes until the onion begins to soften.
• Add the chicken stock, cherry tomatoes, canned tomatoes and paprika to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften and the sauce has thickened.
• Return the cooked shrimp to the pan and stir to coat them in the sauce. Leave to cook for another minute until the shrimp are warmed through. Remove the pan from the heat and garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges before serving.

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO RISOTTO

Steps:

• 1. Put saffron in small dish, pour a half cup chicken stock over it and set aside.
• 2. Heat one tablespoon oil in large skillet to very hot, add shrimp and stir. Sprinkle with paprika and stir-fry just until shrimp begin to brown but are not fully cooked, 2-4 minutes. Season with cayenne pepper and remove from heat.
• 3. Add butter and remaining oil and reheat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft, working up anything stuck to the skillet, 5-6 minutes. Add the chorizo, saute a couple of minutes more, then stir in cumin and rice. Saute, stirring, until the rice turns opaque, 5-6 minutes. Stir in the saffron mixture and wine. Cook, stirring with wooden spoon over medium heat, until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• 4. Add about 1/2 cup of the hot broth to the rice, stirring constantly until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding the remaining broth 1/2 cup at a time, waiting until each addition is absorbed before adding more. Continue until the rice is tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. The rice should have a creamy consistency. Add the reserved shrimp, parmesan, parsley and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve at once.

ONE-POT SPANISH-STYLE SHRIMP AND CHORIZO PASTA

Bring to a boil, cover and simmer over moderate heat until pasta has softened and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in shrimp, peas and Parmesan, cover and cook until shrimp is opaque, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and parsley.
