Roasted Rock Shrimp With Two Chiles Recipes

CUMIN-ROASTED SHRIMP WITH GREEN CHILE COCKTAIL SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Toss the shrimp with 2 tablespoons of the oil, the cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing once, until opaque throughout, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pulse the peppers, cilantro, the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a food processor until smooth.
• Serve the shrimp hot, cold or at room temperature with the sauce. (The sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 days.)

ROCK-SHRIMP ROLL

Steps:

• In a stockpot, bring 2 1/2 quarts of water to a rolling boil, and add the 1/2 cup salt. In a large bowl, prepare an ice bath with 3 to 4 quarts of cold water and about a quart of ice.
• Season the shrimp all over with kosher salt, and turn off the heat under the boiling water. Wait 1 full minute before dropping the shrimp into the hot water. Let shrimp cook just until they lose their translucence, 1 to 2 minutes. Strain, then plunge into the ice bath just until cooled, no more than 2 minutes. Pat shrimp dry, and transfer to a cutting board. Roughly chop the shrimp by making a few cuts through the pile with your chef's knife until shrimp is cut into medium, bite-size pieces.
• Transfer chopped shrimp to a bowl, and stir in the onion, celery and 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. Season to taste with kosher salt, pepper, chopped dill and a few drops of lemon juice. Set aside.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium. Evenly butter the interior and exterior of each hot dog bun. Working in batches, toast the buns inside and out in the skillet until golden brown. (We love as much buttery griddled surface area as possible.)
• To assemble, remove the buns from the skillet, and slather the interiors with the remaining mayonnaise. Evenly distribute the shrimp salad among the buns. Top each roll with alternating slices of hard-boiled egg and endive, then sprinkle each roll with a little kosher salt, a short grind of fresh black pepper and a few drops of lemon juice.

CRISPY CREAMY ROCK SHRIMP WITH SWEET CHILE AIOLI AND APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• Make the sweet chile aioli:
• In a small bowl, whisk together all of the aioli ingredients. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
• Make the apple slaw:
• In a small bowl, toss together all of the slaw ingredients, cover, and keep chilled until ready to serve.
• Batter and fry the shrimp:
• Line a baking sheet with 2 layers of paper towels.
• In a heavy large pot, heat 3 inches of oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F.
• In a small bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and pepper.
• In a medium bowl, stir together beer and tempura mix-the mixture should be about as thick as pancake batter.
• Lightly coat the shrimp in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the tempura batter. Working in batches, fry the shrimp until light golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer as done to the prepared baking sheet and return oil to 350°F between batches.
• Transfer the fried shrimp to a small bowl, add sweet chile aioli, and gently toss to coat.
• To serve:
• Divide the apple slaw among 6 small appetizer plates. Arrange about 6 shrimp on each plate and serve immediately.

SHRIMP AND ROASTED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

Cook and stir for 1 to 2 minutes or just until onion is tender. Add shrimp and crushed red pepper; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add roasted peppers and wine.
• Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 2 minutes or until shrimp are opaque, stirring occasionally. Stir in cream. Return to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently, uncovered, for 1 minute. Stir in basil.
• Add shrimp mixture and cheese to hot cooked pasta; toss gently to combine.
