Brown Butter Shrimp With Hazelnuts Recipes

BROWN BUTTER HARICOTS VERTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 7 minutes. Let cool slightly, then rub with a kitchen towel to remove the skins; roughly chop and set aside.
• Fill a large bowl with ice water and set aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the haricots verts and cook until crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and immediately transfer to the ice bath; let sit until cool, about 2 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, until golden brown flecks appear and the butter smells nutty, about 4 minutes. Add the hazelnuts and cook 30 seconds. Remove the hazelnuts and all but 2 tablespoons of the browned butter to a small bowl; cover to keep warm.
• Add the broth to the skillet and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then add half of the haricots verts and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter using tongs. Repeat with the remaining haricots verts. Top with the hazelnuts. Season with salt and sprinkle with the lemon zest.

GARLIC BUTTER SHRIMP

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet or wok over medium-low heat. Add shrimp; cook and stir until shrimp turn pink, about 5 minutes. Mix in garlic powder.
• Whisk water and cornstarch together in a bowl to make a slurry. Pour into the skillet and stir until butter sauce thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

ASPARAGUS WITH SPICED BUTTER & BROWN SHRIMP

Steps:

• Put a large platter in the oven to warm up. Gently melt the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat, then stir in the sea salt, spices and peppercorns. Remove from the heat.
• To cook the asparagus, bring a little salted water (about 5cm deep) to the boil in a saucepan, making sure the saucepan is wide enough to fit the asparagus laying flat without crowding it. Add the asparagus and poach for 2-3 mins, or until a knife inserted into the thickest part of a spear can be pulled out with no resistance.
• Meanwhile, return the spiced butter pan to the heat, then add the shrimp, wild garlic or herbs and lemon juice, basting the shrimps well. Taste and season, if necessary. Drain the asparagus and pile onto the warm platter, then pour over the shrimps and spiced butter. Garnish with the flowers, if using, then serve with chunks of crusty bread.

CAULIFLOWER WITH BROWN BUTTER, PEARS, SAGE & HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• To toast hazelnuts, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a 350° F oven for 14 to 18 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned. While still warm, rub them against each other in a clean dishtowel to remove the papery skins.
• In a 12 skillet over medium high heat, melt the butter until light brown and bubbly.
• Add the cauliflower, hazelnuts, and sage. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Season with 1 teaspoons salt and 1/2 tsp pepper and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is browned and crisp-tender, 6-7 minutes more.
• Remove the pan from the heat. Add the pear slices and parsley. Gently toss to combine and warm the pears. Season to taste with more salt. Serve hot or at room temperature.

BROWN-BUTTER SHRIMP WITH HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• In a 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium. Add hazelnuts and cook, stirring frequently, until the nuts smell toasty and are deep golden, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the nuts to a paper towel-lined plate. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add butter and shallot to the skillet, and cook, stirring, until shallots are golden and butter is browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic, then add shrimp. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp turn opaque and light golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and parsley.
• Transfer shrimp to a serving platter and spoon over any pan sauces. Top with the toasted hazelnuts and serve with crusty bread or over egg noodles.
