Jumbo Shrimp Wrapped With Arugula And Prosciutto Recipes

Steps:

• To prep the shrimp: Whisk together the wine, garlic, red pepper, salt and lemon juice. Slowly pour in the olive oil. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pickle the onions. Combine in a medium sauce pot, red wine vinegar, sugar, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper and water. Bring to a boil and pour over the onions. Let cool and then refrigerate.
• In another small saucepan, place the 1 cup of balsamic over medium heat and reduce until the vinegar becomes syrupy, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit at room temperature until ready to use. May need to reheat for use.
• Have the grill preheated to medium-high.
• Drain shrimp and reserve the marinade. Wrap 1 prosciutto strip around each shrimp and place 2 shrimp on each skewer, leaving a little room between each shrimp. Brush each of the skewers with some of the reserved marinade and place on the grill. Grill the shrimp until the prosciutto is crispy and the shrimp turn opaque and are cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• In a large bowl, dress the arugula and the pickled onions with remaining balsamic, a splash of olive oil, salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and top with the shrimp skewers. Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the top.

Steps:

• Place shrimp on a dish and drizzle with a touch of extra-virgin olive oil and toss shrimp to coat lightly in the oil. Press sage leaves down the backs of shrimp where you have deveined them. Wrap shrimp with 1 slice of pancetta each and hold in place with a toothpick placed lengthwise in shrimp. Set aside until ready to grill.
• Heat an indoor electric grill to highest setting. Grill shrimps 3 minutes on each side or until shrimp is pink and just firm and pancetta is crisp. To pan fry shrimp, heat a nonstick skillet over medium high to high heat, and sear shrimp 3 minutes per side. Serve 3 shrimp per person with potato watercress salad and green bean salad.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Return the pot to medium heat and add the butter and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Cook, swirling the pot, until the butter melts and combines with the water. Add the tortellini and arugula and gently toss to coat, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen. Season with salt.
• Divide the tortellini among bowls. Season generously with pepper and sprinkle with the parmesan. Top with the prosciutto.

Steps:

• Combine oil, vinegar, basil and garlic in a bowl. Add the shrimp and marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Preheat broiler.
• Drain shrimp. Cut each piece of prosciutto in half, lengthwise and wrap around each shrimp, securing well with a toothpick.
• Saute the shrimp in a non-stick pan, that has been heated and lightly brushed with olive oil. Cook only to seal the prosciutto to shrimp. Place each piece on broiler pan and grill under broiler for 2 minutes on each side. Careful not to burn the prosciutto or overcook the shrimp.

Steps:

• Blend the arugula and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add 1/2 cup of oil, processing until well blended. Transfer the pesto to a large bowl. Stir in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Prepare the grill (high heat). Using a knife, cut the back of the shrimp. Brush the shrimp with oil. Sprinkle with salt. Grill the shrimp until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
• Toss the pasta with the pesto in the large bowl to coat, adding the reserved cooking liquid 1 tablespoon at a time to moisten. Top with the grilled shrimp. Garnish with the lemon zest and parsley.
