Thai Shrimp Potatoes Recipes

SHRIMP IN THAI COCONUT CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the shrimp in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of the oil, garlic, kosher salt and red chili flakes. Toss to coat and let marinate for 10 minutes.
• Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium high heat with 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the onion and peppers and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer the peppers and onion to a bowl.
• Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet and cook half of the shrimp for 2 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes or until opaque. Transfer the shrimp to a plate. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and cook the remaining shrimp then add to the other shrimp.
• In another bowl or 4-cup measuring cup mix the coconut milk, fish sauce, peanut butter, red curry paste, lime juice, brown sugar and ground ginger and stir well.
• Transfer the cooked onion and peppers to the skillet and pour the coconut milk mixture of the peppers. Bring to a boil then reduce to simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add the shrimp to the skillet with the basil and cilantro and toss to coat. Serve over rice or noodles. Garnish with more cilantro and basil, chopped green onion and sliced red jalapeño of desired.

THAI SHRIMP CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, about 3 minutes. If the onions start to brown, reduce the heat to medium. Add the scallions, garlic, and green curry paste, and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes more. Add the coconut milk, water, fish sauce, and sugar and bring to a gentle boil. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the lime juice and sprinkle with the cilantro (or basil). Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, and serve with jasmine rice.
• Note: For the shrimp, I recommend buying frozen shrimp labeled "shell split and deveined." Most shrimp are cleaned and flash frozen shortly after being caught, so the "fresh" shrimp you see in the seafood case at the supermarket are typically thawed frozen shrimp. Who knows how long they've been sitting there, so you're better off buying frozen shrimp and defrosting it yourself. Come dinnertime, all you have to do is run the shrimp under water to defrost, and then peel.

THAI PEANUT SWEET POTATO NOODLES WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

• Meanwhile, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, rice wine vinegar, ginger, sesame oil, garlic and fish sauce. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. If it's too thick, add up to 1/4 cup warm water.
• Season the shrimp with the chile lime seasoning and some salt and pepper. Place the shrimp on top of the par-cooked noodles. Roast until the shrimp turn opaque, 8 to 10 minutes more.
• Toss half of the peanut sauce with the warm sweet potato noodles straight from the oven. Transfer to a large serving platter. Top with the shrimp, crushed peanuts, scallions and fresh mint and serve with more peanut sauce alongside.

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Brush a sheet pan all over with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Place the potatoes in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover by 1 inch; add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower and simmer, uncovered, for 15 to 18 minutes, until the potatoes are just fork tender. Pour into a colander to drain, then return the cooked potatoes to the pot off the heat to help any remaining moisture evaporate.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, lime juice, rice vinegar, chile, soy sauce, sugar and garlic, then stir in the cilantro and scallions.
• Place the potatoes on the prepared sheet pan. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, gently smash each potato until it's about 1/2-inch thick. Drizzle remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil over the potatoes and carefully flip to coat both sides in oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and roast for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.
• Transfer the potatoes to a platter, sprinkle lightly with salt, then spoon the sauce on top. Garnish with cilantro leaves and serve hot.

GARLIC ROASTED SHRIMP AND POTATOES

• In a large bowl, add chopped potatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil (reserve 1 tablespoon of olive oil for shrimp and peppers) onions, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp cumin powder, salt and pepper and toss well. (reserve the other teaspoons of garlic powder, paprika and cumin powder for the shrimp and peppers) You can also do this step right on the baking sheet pan, if you do not want to dirty another bowl.
• Place seasoned potatoes and onion on a lined sheet pan in a single layer. (line your baking sheet with aluminum foil and you can thank us later as clean-up is a snap) Make sure there is no overlapping of potatoes.
• Bake potatoes and onions for 20 minutes and then toss. Place back in the oven to continue baking.
• In the meantime, Unthaw, peel and devein shrimp and remove tail. Dry well. Set aside. Chop your bell peppers.
• Toss your shrimp, bell peppers, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1 teaspoon of cumin, salt and pepper together. At the 24 minute mark of baking, add your seasoned shrimp and bell pepper mixture to the roasted potatoes, toss and spread out in an even layer to continue roasting for 6-8 minutes or until the shrimp are no longer translucent.
• Test to make sure your potatoes are fork tender and your shrimp are no longer translucent. Your shrimp should be nice and pink. Remove from the oven. Enjoy!
