PROSECCO BUTTER POACHED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Transfer the thawed shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate. Use paper towel to pat the shrimp as dry as possible. Set aside.
• Add the Prosecco to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the Prosecco to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced roughly by half, about 12-15 minutes.
• Reduce the heat under the Prosecco to medium-low, just enough for the Prosecco to maintain a gentle simmer. Whisking constantly, add a few tablespoons of the butter to the saucepan with the Prosecco. Once melted, continue to add butter to the saucepan, working a few tablespoons at a time. Be sure to whisk steadily throughout this process to help the butter emulsify with the reduced Prosecco & adjust heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer. Once all of the butter is incorporated, add in the aromatics - lemon juice, sliced lemon, crushed garlic, dried parsley, etc. Season with 2 teaspoons kosher salt & ground black pepper as desired. Simmer 2-3 minutes, whisking steadily, to bloom the aromatics. Taste & adjust seasoning as desired.
• Working in batches of 5-6 shrimp at a time, add the shrimp to the saucepan. All of the shrimp should be submerged in the Prosecco butter poaching liquid. Adjust heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook 2-3 minutes, just until the shrimp is bright pink with opaque flesh. Transfer the poached shrimp to a large plate or bowl & set aside. Repeat 2-3 times with remaining shrimp.
• Once all the shrimp are poached & cool enough to handle, peel them & serve immediately. You can enjoy this Prosecco butter poached shrimp appetizer-style with crusty bread, placing the shrimp in a shallow bowl & pouring some of the Prosecco butter poaching liquid over top. This Prosecco butter poached shrimp is also great as a special occasion main dish, served with some of its Prosecco butter poaching liquid over risotto, pasta, or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!

WINE-POACHED SHRIMP WITH SMOKY TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare a low-medium heat fire (225°F) in a wood-fired oven or cooker.
• Combine the wine and stock in a saucepan and warm slightly. Put the shrimp in a shallow baking dish, then cover with the wine and stock. Add the garlic, fennel, and salt to the liquid, then cover tightly and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the shrimp are evenly pink.
• Remove the shrimp from the liquid and let cool slightly, then remove the shells. Return the dish to the oven and cook to reduce the liquid by one-third. Reserve 1/4 cup of it for the sauce. Toss the shrimp in the remainder of the reduced liquid just before serving.
• Prepare a medium-hot fire (400°F) in a wood-fired grill. Or, if poaching the shrimp in an oven, cook the tomatoes and shallots there as well. Place them on a grate or a grill pan to mark and cook as directed.
• Combine the tomatoes, shallots, 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, salt, and the black pepper in a bowl and toss to coat. Grill the tomatoes and shallots, cut side down, for 15 minutes, or until they are softened and the skins have shriveled. Remove from the grill and spread on a baking sheet to cool to the touch. Remove the tomato skins and shallot peels, then chop the vegetables. Combine in a bowl along with any juices and set aside.
• Whisk the poaching liquid, lemon juice, and vinegar together in a bowl. Gradually whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil to make an emulsion. Stir into the tomato mixture and add salt and white pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped herbs. Set aside for 20 minutes for the flavors to come together. Serve as a dip for the shrimp.
