SHRIMP AND SPANISH CHORIZO BITES RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, garlic, oregano, vinegar, Sherry, and 1/4 cup of the olive oil; toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Skewer one shrimp and one round of chorizo onto wooden toothpicks or skewers. Repeat with the remaining shrimp and chorizo. Working in batches, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place a few skewers into the pan and sear on both sides until the shrimp are cooked through and the chorizo is lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the skewers to a serving platter and garnish with the parsley. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO TAPAS

Steps:

• In a large skillet or cazuela, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and saute the sliced chorizo until it begins to brown around the edges, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized around the edges and softened somewhat, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup of the sherry and cook for 1 minute. Add the shrimp, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of sherry and 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, parsley and remainder of the salt and pepper; stir to combine and remove from the heat. Serve immediately, on small plates with any accumulated cooking juices spooned over the top. Pass the bread at the table.

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO IN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium straight-sided pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat and saute the chorizo and onions, breaking the chorizo up with a wooden spoon while cooking until it resembles ground beef. Add the adobo, paprika and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook until the fat is rendered and the onions are tender and cooked into the chorizo, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the remaining oil and the garlic and lower the heat to medium-low. Let the flavors infuse over the low heat for 5 to 7 minutes. Add the shrimp to the garlic oil, raise the heat slightly, and stir and turn to cook the shrimp evenly, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve as an appetizer on toothpicks with crusty, chewy bread.

ONE-POT SPANISH-STYLE SHRIMP AND CHORIZO PASTA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and pasta, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until pasta starts to turn golden, about 5 minutes (pasta will break up a bit during stirring).
• Lower heat and add garlic, tomato paste and chorizo, and cook until tomato paste is lightly caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes. Add fennel, clam juice and 1 cup of water and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer over moderate heat until pasta has softened and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in shrimp, peas and Parmesan, cover and cook until shrimp is opaque, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and parsley.
• Drizzle with oil and serve with lemon wedges.

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO FLATBREADS

• Spread the hummus on the pita breads and top with the chorizo, shrimp and Manchego.
• Make sure the oven is real hot!
• Bake directly on the oven rack for about 4 minutes, or until the shrimp are cooked and the cheese is melted.
• Transfer the shrimp and chorizo flatbreads to a work surface.
• Using a slotted spoon, top with the tomato dressing.
• Quarter the flatbreads and serve at once.
• **The tomato dressing can be refrigerated overnight. Bring to room temperature before spooning onto the flatbreads.

SPANISH SHRIMP WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• In small pan place chorizo. Cover with water and bring to boil. Simmer for 2 minutes.
• Drain water from chorizos. Cut chorizo into 1/4 inch slices, at a bit of an angle.
• In a bowl combine butter, shallots, parsley, smoked paprika, and sweet/hot paprika. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• In large saute pan, add sliced chorizo and fry up on both sides. About 2minutes per side. Increase heat to high and add shrimp to pan and cook until shrimp are starting to turn pink, but not thoroughly cooked.
• Remove pan from stove and add brandy. Place back on stove and cook high until alcohol evaporates, about 1 minute.
• Add butter mixture to pan and cook until all is melted and shrimp are cooked and hot.
• Serve shrimp immediately.
• You may serve over hot rice or in a bowl so you can dip crusty bread into the sauce.

ROASTED SHRIMP AND CHORIZO

• Add shrimp and chorizo, and stir until well coated. Roast until shrimp is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a grill or grill pan until medium-hot. Using remaining 1/3 cup oil, brush each side of bread with 1 teaspoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill bread, turning once, until golden brown, about 6 minutes. (Alternatively, toast bread under broiler.)
• Put a bread slice in each of four serving bowls. Divide shrimp mixture among bowls; garnish with oregano. Serve remaining bread slices on the side.
