Yield Yield: 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 large onions, cut in half and sliced half-moon
3 Granny Smith apples, pealed, cored, cut in 8 quarts
2 lb uncooked, shelled shrimp
3 tbs Granulated Sugar
1/2 cup roasted walnuts
1/4 cup minced fresh tarragon
2 tbs Lemon Juice
olive oil for frying
salt and paper to taste

Steps:

In a deep pan, put two tablespoons of olive oil and heat at a moderate heat. When oil is hot, put shrimp in the bottom of the pan in one layer. Sprinkle with salt and paper to taste. Fry on both sides and continue with the rest of the shrimp, until all done. Remove shrimp on a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep worm. In the same pan, at a moderate heat, put the entire amount of cut onions. Sprinkle with salt and paper to taste. Add additional olive oil, if necessary. Stir until the onions take a translucent color. Add one tbs of granulated sugar and stir constantly, until the onions are coated with the melted sugar and become golden color. Remove onions on a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep worm. In the same pan, at a moderate heat, put the cut apples and additional oil, if necessary. Sprinkle with salt, paper and add 2tbs granulated sugar. Stir the sugar and the apples and cover the pan. Allow the apples to soften, but not brake apart. They should have a nice, golden color when done. Assembly of the dish: on an ovenproof serving platter, place the apples, onions and shrimp interchangeably. Sprinkle the tarragon on top and place in oven, at 350, for approximately 15-20min. Remove and squeeze half a lemon over the entire dish.
