Shrimp With Pineapple And Pickled Kumquats Recipes

SHRIMP WITH PINEAPPLE AND PICKLED KUMQUATS

Steps:

• To pickle the kumquats, bring the vinegar to a boil in a small pan. Add the cardamom pods. Put the kumquats in a heatproof container, then pour in the vinegar mixture. Let cool, then refrigerate for 2 days.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and 3 tablespoons of the kumquat vinegar. Season with black pepper and piment d'Espelette. Whisk in the olive oil.
• Thinly slice 6 pickled kumquats and remove the seeds; set aside. Thinly slice the pineapple cubes. (You need only 12 slices total.) In a mixing bowl, combine the frisee, pineapple and pickled kumquats.
• Place the shrimp in a bowl and season generously with salt; add the thyme and toss. Heat a large cast-iron pan until almost smoking, then pour in enough oil to thinly coat the base. Carefully add the shrimp and thyme and brown on both sides until just cooked through, about 2 minutes; discard the thyme. Transfer to the bowl with the frisee. Pour in just enough vinaigrette to coat (about half) and toss. Divide among 4 plates.

SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Whisk pineapple juice, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sherry, and cornstarch together in a small bowl until well combined; set aside.
• Drizzle vegetable and sesame oils around the top of a wok or large skillet to coat the sides. Heat over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel and add to wok. Stir-fry for 1 minute on each side and transfer cooked shrimp to a clean plate.
• Add pineapple, red bell pepper, onion, and snow peas to the wok, and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Return shrimp to the wok, and stir-fry an additional 2 minutes. Whisk stir-fry sauce a couple of times and pour over shrimp and vegetables, stirring constantly until thickened, about 1 minute.
• Serve immediately, garnished with scallions and sesame seeds.
