Tequila Glazed Shrimp Salad Flambe Recipes

PINEAPPLE RUM FLAMBE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Place the pineapple in the syrup in a single layer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until browned on the first side. Turn with a small spatula or tongs and cook on the second side until the pineapples are soft and richly browned. Add rum and flambe. Arrange on dessert plates.

BUSHMILLS STEAK FLAMBE

Steps:

• Over medium heat, warm up your skillet and pour in the oil. Place the steaks in the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fry steaks until the desired level of cooking is reached. Once steaks are done, pour in the cup of whiskey and set alight. Let flames die down and then pour in double cream. Serve immediately.
• To plate: Place steak on a warm plate and spoon some sauce on top of it. Serve with a fresh salad and potatoes.

LOBSTER FLAMBE

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Add the cooked lobster meat and saute quickly, just to heat up the meat.
• Remove the pan from the heat and carefully add the vodka. Return the pan to the heat, ignite the alcohol, and cook until the alcohol burns off and the flames die out. Keep the pan moving throughout this process so nothing burns. Season with salt and serve.

BANANAS FLAMBE

Steps:

• Remove 4 strips orange zest with a vegetable peeler. Squeeze the orange and strain the juice.
• Melt the butter with the sugar, orange zest and vanilla bean in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the sugar caramelizes, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the liqueur, orange juice and a pinch of salt.
• Return the skillet to medium heat, add the bananas, cut-side down, and cook until glazed and golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and divide among bowls.
• Add the rum to the pan and return to medium heat. Warm for a few seconds without stirring, then carefully tilt the pan so the rum ignites (if using an electric stove, hold a lit match near the sauce to ignite it). Spoon the flaming sauce over the bananas. Garnish with whipped cream and the glazed orange zest.

SHRIMP ROULADE WITH TEQUILA LIME RELISH

Steps:

• Blend the fresh herbs into the cheese. Blanch the spinach leaves for 2 minutes in boiling water and let cool. Butterfly the shrimp (split them down the center, cutting almost but not completely through) and open them flat to resemble a butterfly shape. Dip the shrimp in cornstarch between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound the shrimp to a 1/16-inch thickness. Place 1 spinach leaf on each shrimp. Pipe a 2-inch strip of cream cheese from head to tail down the center of the spinach. Arrange a strip of bell pepper along one side of the cream cheese. Roll the flattened shrimp and refrigerate. A few minutes before serving time, dredge the shrimp rolls lightly in the seasoned flour, then in the egg whites, and then in the bread crumbs. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a nonstick ovenproof frying pan, heat the olive oil until hot. Brown the breaded shrimp rolls until golden brown. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Slice on the diagonal. Serve with the Tequila-Lime Relish.
• Mix all the ingredients and let stand for 1 hour. For garnish, use carrot peels and chives.

HONEY-TEQUILA GLAZED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat an indoor grill plate over high heat.
• Whisk together the honey, clementine juice, cumin, chipotle powder, salt, lime zest and juice and 2 ounces of the tequila in a medium bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Marinate 15 minutes at room temperature
• Set a strainer over a bowl and drain the shrimp completely, reserving the marinade for later. Grill the shrimp on both sides until super charred and no longer opaque in the middle, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the reserved marinade and simmer until reduced by about half, about 2 minutes. Add the cooked shrimp and stir to coat in the sauce. Turn off the flame, then add the remaining 2 ounces tequila. Turn the flame back on to medium high and carefully tilt the pan to ignite the tequila (you can also use a match or lighter to flambe the tequila off heat). Once the flames subside, plate and serve.
