SEARED SHRIMP WITH LEMON AND GARLIC
Steps:
- Finely grate the zest of 3 lemons. Juice all 4 lemons; strain the juice, and set aside. Place the shrimp in a large bowl; add the lemon zest, garlic, and 1/4 cup olive oil; toss well to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, and heat until the oil is hot but not smoking. Working in batches, arrange a single layer of shrimp in the pan, being careful not to crowd them. Cook until the underside is golden brown, 45 to 60 seconds. Turn over, and continue cooking until the other side is golden brown and the shrimp are cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large serving platter. Deglaze the pan with 1 1/2 tablespoons reserved lemon juice, stirring up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, and pour the pan sauce over the shrimp. Cover loosely with foil while repeating the process with the remaining batches, adding 1 tablespoon oil each time.
