Sizzled Citrus Shrimp Recipes

SHRIMP WITH GARLIC AND CHILI PEPPER

Steps:

• Pour the olive oil into a wide, heavy-bottomed frying pan. Then add the chile and garlic and, over moderate to low heat, to infuse rather than to color, fry for 2 minutes, stirring all the time. Then turn the heat to high, add the shrimp, and stir-fry them for another 2 minutes or until they turn pink and are just, delicately, cooked; you want the flesh to stay tender. Pour in the white wine and let it bubble up. You don't want a liquid puddle around the shrimp, just enough wine to let the juices ooze into a winy sauce. Another minute or so should do it. Season with the salt, if necessary, and then turn into your bowl and sprinkle with parsley. Eat with some good hunks of baguette. I eat these carapace, head, and all: one of the reasons I designate them for solitary dinner.
• If you want, you can add a tablespoonful or so of brandy before throwing in the wine.

• For the marinade: Toast the seeds in a dry pan over low heat for a few minutes, until just toasted and giving off a nutty aroma. Let cool.
• Whisk the toasted seeds with the vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil and white pepper in a large glass bowl. Stir in the bay leaves, garlic, chiles, onions and lemons.
• When the shrimp come out of the oven, put them into the marinade to let cool. Wrap the bowl tightly with two layers of plastic wrap. Put the bowl in the refrigerator and marinate, turning the shrimp in the bowl occasionally to mix well, for at least 8 hours and for up to 24 hours before serving. Also put a large glass bowl in the fridge to chill, for serving the shrimp.
• To serve: Strain and reserve the liquid from the shrimp using a medium sieve or strainer so the seeds can pass through (but it's ok if some remain in the shrimp).
• Put the shrimp in the chilled glass bowl. Add some of the marinade back to the shrimp and toss. The shrimp should not be swimming in the marinade.
