Bobby Flays Fra Diavolo Jambalaya Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, then add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook, turning halfway through, until the shrimp are curled and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the shrimp to a bowl.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the garlic and Fresno pepper to the skillet; cook, stirring, until the garlic is golden, about 1 minute. Add the oregano and cook until softened. Add the tomatoes and 1 cup water and bring to a simmer. Cook until the tomatoes burst and the sauce is reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Add the shrimp, pasta and 1/2 cup cooking water to the sauce. Cook, tossing, until the shrimp are hot and the pasta is coated, 1 to 2 minutes, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the basil.
• Divide the pasta and shrimp among bowls. Sprinkle with more oregano and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• For the lobster relish: Bring an inch of water to a boil in a large pot with a steamer insert. Set the lobster belly-up on a cutting board. Pierce it with a knife just under the base of the head, and cut it deeply through the belly to kill it quickly. Transfer the lobster to the steamer, cover and cook for 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil along with the garlic to a small saute pan set over medium heat. Cook until golden and fragrant, then transfer the garlic to a medium bowl. Add the tomatoes, red pepper flakes and lemon zest and juice to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
• The moment the lobster is done shock it in an ice bath to stop cooking. When cool enough to handle, pull off the tail and claws and remove the meat. Chop up the meat and add it to the tomato mixture. Drizzle with some olive oil.
• In another saute pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the lobster-tomato mixture and heat it through. Add the white wine and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and stir in the parsley and oregano.
• For the steak: About 20 minutes before cooking, remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit, covered, to come up to room temperature. Mix together the ancho powder, paprika, mustard, salt, cayenne, coriander, cumin and black pepper in a bowl and set aside.
• Preheat a large cast-iron pan over high heat and set the oven to broil.
• Brush the steak on both sides with the canola oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Sprinkle one side of the steak with the spice rub. Drizzle a little canola oil in the pan; when it begins to smoke, add the steak rub-side down and cook until a nice crust forms, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the steak to a cutting board and slice it against the grain 1-inch thick. Return the steak to the pan, rub-side up. Scatter the butter on top and broil to medium-rare, about 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and baste the steak with the pan juices.
• Assembly: Arrange the steak and the lobster relish on a plate. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the steak juices. Garnish with oregano and parsley.
