ITALIAN SHRIMP AND SCALLOP RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over a medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until starting to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Stir in scallops and cook for 1 minute. Add shrimp and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook over high heat until shrimp are pink, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup white wine into the skillet and let the alcohol evaporate. Scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze; cook until the liquid is reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, add lemon juice, and sprinkle with 1/2 of the parsley. Discard garlic. Cover the skillet to keep shellfish warm.
• Pour fish stock into a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
• Melt butter in a skillet over low heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and shallot. Cook until shallot is soft and translucent, but not brown, 3 to 5 minutes.

SHRIMP WITH WHOLE GRAIN CORN-OAT RISOTTO

Steps:

• Remove the kernels from the corn cobs and set the kernels aside. Hold the cobs over a large saucepan and use the back of a knife to scrape down the cobs to "milk" them of any corn liquid. Drop the scraped cobs into the saucepan and add 8 cups of water and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced to 6 cups, about 30 minutes. Strain and keep warm.
• Make the risotto: Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until the onion is translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the corn kernels and 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the corn just starts to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the oats and stir until coated. Add 1 cup of wine and simmer, stirring constantly, until the wine is absorbed, about 1 minute. Add 3 cups of the warm corn broth to the oats. Simmer, stirring constantly, until most of the liquid is absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 2 more cups of broth and simmer, stirring constantly, until the oats are tender but slightly toothsome, about 10 to 12 minutes more. Remove from the heat, stir in the Parmesan and season to taste with salt. Adjust the consistency of the risotto by adding more of the broth as necessary. Cover and set aside to keep warm.
• Make the shrimp: Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp in one crowded layer and cook until the shrimp are a deep pinkish orange on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the shrimp over, add the remaining 1/2 cup wine, garlic and red pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until the shrimp is opaque throughout and the wine has reduced slightly. Add the lemon juice, parsley, remaining 1 tablespoon butter and salt to taste. Remove from the heat, swirl the skillet until the butter melts and toss the shrimp to coat in the sauce.
• Transfer the risotto to a deep platter and top with the shrimp and sauce and serve immediately.

SCALLION RISOTTO

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the broth to a boil; lower the heat and keep at a scant simmer.
• Meanwhile, in a large saute pan (see note) heat 4 tablespoons of the butter and cook the white parts of the scallions, stirring until they're soft, about 2 minutes. Add the rice, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the grains are coated with butter. Add the wine and cook the mixture at a low simmer, stirring until all the wine is absorbed, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add 1/2 cup of the simmering broth and continue to simmer the mixture, stirring until the broth is absorbed. Keep adding broth by the 1/2 cup and repeating as above until the rice is creamy and al dente The rice may not absorb all the broth, so it's best to taste the mixture before adding the last 1/2 cup.
• Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the green scallion tops, cheese and white pepper.

FREGOLA RISOTTO WITH SHRIMP, ROASTED CORN, AND MELTED LEEKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Put the corn in a small baking dish and add enough water to cover the bottom of the pan, about 2 cups. Th e moist heat cooks the corn perfectly. Bake the corn, turning the ears with tongs halfway through cooking, until the husks are brown and the corn feels tender when you press it, 40 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel off the husks and remove the corn silks. Cut the kernels off the cob; you should have about 1 1/2 cups.
• Meanwhile, heat the stock until it simmers. Keep warm over low heat.
• Cut off the dark green tops of the leeks and discard. Cut the leeks crosswise into 1/2-inch rounds. Put them in a large bowl of water. Swish the water around and separate the leek pieces, checking for dirt between the layers. The sand will fall to the bottom of the bowl. Lift the leeks out with your hands and put them on a kitchen towel to dry; you should have about 6 cups.
• Put a large skillet over low heat and add 4 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter is foamy, add the leeks and thyme; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are tender but not brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the thyme sprigs. Pour in the cream and stir to incorporate. Cover and keep warm over very low heat.
• Put a large, deep skillet over medium heat and drizzle with the oil, then add 1 tablespoon of the butter. When the butter is foamy, add the shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the shallot is soft, about 3 minutes. Add the fregola and stir for a minute or two until the pasta is well coated; season with salt and pepper. Stir in the wine and simmer for 1 minute to evaporate the alcohol.
• Pour in 1 cup of the warm stock. Stir with a wooden spoon until the pasta has absorbed all of the liquid. Keep stirring while adding the stock little by little, allowing the pasta to drink it in before you add more. This whole process should take about 20 minutes. You may not need all of the stock. Taste the risotto: it should be slightly firm but creamy. Add the corn, shrimp, parsley, and tarragon. Cook, stirring, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining tablespoon of butter to make it rich.
• To serve, divide the risotto among 4 shallow bowls, top with the leeks, and garnish with a shower of parsley.

CHEESY SHRIMP AND RICE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute shrimp until firm and pink, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
• Add mushrooms, celery, bell pepper, and onions to the skillet. Saute until all vegetables are tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Stir in flour, bouillon, seafood seasoning, garlic, and cayenne. Slowly add milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil and continue stirring until mixture starts to thicken. Add cooked rice, Cheddar cheese, and shrimp. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Serve.

SARASOTA'S SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS WITH CREAMY RISOTTO

Steps:

• Seafood -- Make sure all the seafood is cleaned and room temp or at least out of the refrigerator to take the chill off.
• Risotto --
• Step 1: In a large sauce pan, heat the oil to medium heat and add the onion, fennel and cook until tender. It should take 4-5 minutes. Add the rice and cook another couple of minutes until slightly brown and rice absorbs the oil and the flavors of the onion and the fennel. It will take just a couple of minutes. Add in the wine and cook another minute or so until the rice absorbs all the liquid.
• Step 2: Chicken broth - make sure to heat up your chicken broth in a small sauce pan on the stove so you can add a little at a time.
• Step 3: Slowly add a little chicken broth to the rice mixture, a little (1 cup) at a time until it is all absorbed. Don't forget to stir. When almost all the liquid is absorbed (about 15 minutes), add in the kale and cook another 5 minutes. Then add in the butter and cream and stir and remove from the heat and cover. I have read that risotto takes exactly so many minutes. Well every time I have made it. Never the same amount of time. So about 20-25 minutes is what I use. Just check it.
• Seafood -- First, season the scallops with salt and pepper. And then in a medium sauce pan (NO non-stick if possible), heat up the butter to medium high heat. Add the scallops and cook 1-2 minutes per side. Don't move the scallops after you add them to the pan - let them cook. After 1-2 minutes the scallops should easily move and golden brown on one side. Flip and cook the other side. The second side will only take a minute (less time). Remove to a plate while you cook the shrimp. The shrimp again, just 2 maybe 3 minutes if that. Just when they start to curl and they turn pink remove and add to the scallops.
• Finish -- If the risotto is too thick, just add a little chicken broth. Check for seasoning, salt and pepper; and add in the scallops, shrimp and parsley. Toss well and top with grated parmesan.

COLD SHRIMP SALAD

• Meanwhile, finish scraping corn; wash, trim and coarsely chop the tomatoes.
• After adding next to the last cup of stock, wash, dry and chop the basil. About 2 minutes before the rice is cooked, add corn kernels, tomatoes and basil, and stir well. You may not need to add all of the stock.
• Grate the cheese, and stir into the rice just before serving. Season with pepper.
• Arrange the risotto on a platter, and surround with shrimp.
