CHILE-CRISP SHRIMP AND GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the soy sauce, sugar, red-pepper flakes and cumin. Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Set aside while you fry the shallots and garlic.
• Place a fine-mesh sieve over a heat-proof bowl next to the stove. In a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet, heat the canola oil, shallot, garlic and cinnamon stick over medium-high. When the mixture starts to bubble, reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally to break up the shallots, until golden brown, 5 to 9 minutes. (Lower the heat if the shallots are browning too quickly.) Drain through the sieve, catching the oil in the bowl below. Discard the cinnamon, season the fried shallots and garlic with salt, and set aside.
• Return the oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Add the green beans, season with salt and cook until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Push the green beans to one side, then add the shrimp and the marinade, along with the peanuts (if using), and cook until the shrimp is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Stir the green beans and shrimp to combine, then sprinkle with the fried shallots and garlic. Serve immediately, over rice or noodles, or in lettuce cups, if desired.

ZITI WITH 'NDUJA AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• For the shrimp and 'nduja: In a large skillet heat the olive oil over medium-high heat, sauté the shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, turn the shrimp over and cook for 1 minute more. The shrimp will not be fully cooked. Add the parsley and the 'nduja, breaking up with a wooden spoon to combine. Take off the heat and set aside until ready to use.
• Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water (cover the pot just to bring the temp back to a boil) and cook until al dente, about 3 minutes less than what the box advises. Perform the pasta "marriage ceremony" by reserving 1 cup of the pasta water and draining the rest. Return the pasta to the pot. Add the pasta water and shrimp 'nduja mixture into the pot. Cook over low heat, gently tossing the pasta with the sauce for 2 minutes to allow it to marry with the sauce and absorb it. The pasta should still be firm to the bite. Transfer to a platter or bowl and serve immediately.
