White Beans With Shrimp Recipes

GARLIC SHRIMP AND WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add 1 garlic clove, chiles, and bay leaf and cook, stirring constantly, just until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (do not allow garlic to burn). Add tomato; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring and smashing tomato with the back of a wooden spoon, until tomato is completely broken down, about 5 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, until paste is deep red and caramelized, 3-4 minutes. Stir in beans and broth. Bring to a brisk simmer and cook until juices are slightly reduced and thickened, 3-4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Combine remaining 2 garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons oil, shrimp, and paprika in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat shrimp. Scatter shrimp over beans in an even layer.
• Broil until shrimp are golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons oil over shrimp and beans; garnish with parsley. Serve with bread, if desired.

SHRIMP, WHITE BEAN AND FETA SKILLET

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and just starting to turn brown in some spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper, and stir until the garlic is softened, about 1 minute.
• Pour in the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp just start to turn orange, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is just wilted and bright green and the shrimp are cooked through and opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the feta over top. Cover until the cheese is warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

LEMONY SHRIMP AND BEAN STEW

Steps:

• Combine lemon zest, paprika, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat.
• In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. When butter is foaming, add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and starting to curl, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to a plate; set aside.
• Add leeks, season with salt and pepper, and cook over medium until leeks are soft and starting to brown on the edges, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add beans and chicken broth and bring to a boil over high. Lower heat and simmer, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in reserved shrimp and any juices from the plate, parsley and lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with toasted bread.

SHRIMP AND WHITE BEANS WITH FENNEL AND PANCETTA

Steps:

• In a deep 12-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add the onion and sliced fennel to the skillet and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic, fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook until the garlic begins to soften and the fennel seeds become aromatic, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the crushed tomatoes and their juices. Fill the tomato can halfway with water, swish it around and add that, too.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook on medium-low, allowing the flavors to come together, about 15 minutes.
• Turn heat back to medium, stir in the shrimp and cook until just pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the beans and the cooked pancetta and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary.
• Divide among bowls, top with the herbs and drizzle with a bit more olive oil, if desired.

SHRIMP WITH HERBY WHITE BEANS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium; cook shallot until just softened and golden, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes with their juices, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and 1/4 cup water. Increase heat to high, bring to a boil, and cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add beans and 1/4 cup Roasted Garlic Herb Sauce, and cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust salt if needed, then divide bean mixture between 2 large, shallow bowls.
• Wipe out skillet. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet over medium-high. Add shrimp and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Cook, stirring often, until shrimp is cooked through and starting to take on a little color on both sides, about 3 minutes. Divide shrimp between bowls with beans; drizzle with additional sauce. Serve with toast alongside.

BROILED SHRIMP WITH TOMATOES AND WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Preheat a large, heavy ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) on top rack for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, toss together tomatoes, beans, capers, garlic, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Toss shrimp with remaining tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in another bowl.
• Remove skillet from oven, and add tomato mixture. Broil until tomatoes are charred and beginning to collapse, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven, and stir in stock, then shrimp. Broil, stirring halfway through, until shrimp are opaque, about 3 minutes more. Drizzle with oil.

WHITE BEANS WITH CHORIZO, CLAMS AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a Dutch oven, over medium heat, cook chorizo in olive oil until some of the fat is rendered and it begins to brown, about 5 minutes; add in the bell pepper and cook until it begins to soften, 3 minutes.
• Add in onion and cook 5 minutes; add in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add in the beans, water, and bay leaf; bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, cover tightly and place in oven for one hour.
• Season with salt, stir, replace cover and cook in oven until beans are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour longer.
• The consistency should be like a thin stew (if not add more water, 1/4 cup at a time); discard bay leaf and season to taste with additional salt, if necessary, and pepper.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, with a tight-fitting lid, heat the olive oil over medium heat; add in garlic and parsley and cook until fragrant 1 or 2 minutes.
• Add in white wine and reduce to a thin syrup, about 3 minutes; stir in crushed tomatoes and let cook until slightly reduced, 5 minutes.
• Add in the shrimp and clams, cover tightly, increase heat to high and cook, shaking pan frequently, until clams have opened, about 5 minutes.
• Gently stir clams into beans and heat through; season to taste with more salt, if needed.
• Ladle stew into shallow soup or pasta bowls and sprinkle each with about 2 teaspoons of peperoncini and parsley.
