Shrimp Stuffed With Apple And Vegetables Recipes

BAKED STUFFED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Move oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 375°Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly spray it with noncook cooking spray.
• In a small skillet or pan add the butter and melt over medium heat. Add in the shallot and saute, stirring frequently, until softened and the edges begin to turn light brown, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30-60 seconds.
• In a medium bowl, add the shallot, crushed Ritz crackers, melted butter, sherry wine, and pepper. Stir until combined.
• Remove the shell, leaving the tail section intact. Hold the shrimp in your hand with the inside of the curve facing down. Make a shallow cut with a paring knife down the back of the shrimp. Use the tip of the knife or a toothpick to remove the vein.
• Then, flip the shrimp, so the inside of the curve is facing up. Run the paring knife along the length of the inside, cutting about ½-inch into the flesh, BUT NOT ALL THE WAY THROUGH! You should now be able to flatten the shrimp with the tail pointing up. Place the shrimp, with this new cut side facing up, on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Use a 1-Tablespoon scoop to scoop the stuffing into a mound on the flat part of the shrimp. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the stuffing is golden brown.
• Serve with lemon wedges, a sprinkle of paprika, and melted butter for dipping, YUM!

STUFFED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• If necessary, cut small vegetables in half. Hollow out the vegetables or pieces to make space for stuffing. If using eggplants, sprinkle them with salt and leave to drain for 20 minutes; rinse, drain and dry. Blanch other vegetables briefly in boiling salted water to start the softening process and to fix their colors. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fry the onion and garlic gently in the oil until softened, then allow to cool slightly. Mix the egg with the thyme and bread crumbs and season well with salt and pepper. Add the onion and mix well. Stuff the vegetables with the onion and thyme mixture, not packing the stuffing too tightly. Place in a greased baking tray. Drizzle the butter over the vegetables and sprinkle the cheese. Bake for about 30 minutes or until the smell of the vegetable starts to waft around you and your gastric juices start to flow. Serve hot or warm with a little extra oil and bread.;
