Shrimp And Roasted Peppers Recipes

ROASTED SHRIMP AND PEPPERS WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• For the chimichurri: Stir together the parsley, oil, vinegar, oregano, red pepper flakes, shallots, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Transfer to a serving bowl and set aside.
• For the shrimp and peppers: Preheat the broiler on high. Toss the shrimp with the coriander, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon of the oil. Toss the peppers with the remaining tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Arrange the shrimp in a single layer on half of a large rimmed baking sheet. Arrange the peppers on the other half. Broil, flipping the shrimp and giving the peppers a stir once, until the shrimp are just cooked through and the peppers are tender and charred in spots, 6 to 7 minutes for the shrimp (remove them to a serving plate when done) and 8 to 10 minutes for the peppers. Add the peppers to the serving plate and serve with the chimichurri.

GRITS WITH SHRIMP AND ROASTED RED BELL PEPPER

Steps:

• Butter 11x7-inch glass baking dish. Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag; let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and coarsely chop peppers.
• Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, green onions, and chopped thyme. Sauté until onions wilt, about 2 minutes. Add grits and stir 1 minute. Whisk in broth and cream. Simmer until liquid is absorbed and grits are thick and tender, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Whisk in salt, hot pepper sauce, and black pepper. Fold in roasted bell peppers. Spread grits in prepared dish. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Press shrimp, on their sides, onto top of grits in single layer. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake until grits are heated through, shrimp are just opaque in center, and cheese begins to brown, about 20 minutes. Garnish with thyme sprigs.

SHRIMP AND ROASTED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Peel and devein shrimp. Singe peppers over a gas flame or under a broiler until blackened all over. Allow to cool and rub off charred skin. (Don't be afraid to leave a bit of the charring behind; the flavor is essential to the dish.) Stem and seed the charred peppers and cut them into shrimp-sized pieces.
• Heat clarified butter in a large skillet until very hot. Add shrimp and saute briefly until they turn white and pink. Remove and reserve.
• Add shallots to skillet and saute 1 minute without browning. Add tomato puree and bring to the boil. Add butter, salt and pepper to taste and stir until butter is melted. Add peppers and bring to the boil again.
• Return shrimp to skillet to heat through and finish cooking (about 1 minute). Pour mixture into serving dish. Serve over pasta or rice.

• Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 2 minutes or until shrimp are opaque, stirring occasionally. Stir in cream. Return to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently, uncovered, for 1 minute. Stir in basil.
• Add shrimp mixture and cheese to hot cooked pasta; toss gently to combine.
