Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound spicy Mexican chorizo, casing removed
1/4 cup finely chopped sweet or Vidalia onion
1 teaspoon adobo seasoning
1 teaspoon Hungarian paprika
Freshly ground black pepper
1 head garlic, peeled and finely chopped
Salt
1 1/2 pounds peeled deveined shrimp (16/20 count)
Crusty, chewy bread, for sopping

Steps:

  • In a medium straight-sided pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat and saute the chorizo and onions, breaking the chorizo up with a wooden spoon while cooking until it resembles ground beef. Add the adobo, paprika and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook until the fat is rendered and the onions are tender and cooked into the chorizo, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the remaining oil and the garlic and lower the heat to medium-low. Let the flavors infuse over the low heat for 5 to 7 minutes. Add the shrimp to the garlic oil, raise the heat slightly, and stir and turn to cook the shrimp evenly, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve as an appetizer on toothpicks with crusty, chewy bread.

ONE-POT CHERMOULA SHRIMP AND ORZO



One-Pot Chermoula Shrimp and Orzo image

Traditionally used to season seafood and vegetables, chermoula is a Moroccan marinade made of herbs and spices like cilantro, parsley, paprika and cumin. In this one-pot recipe, the orzo cooks in a combination of chermoula and stock, so the orzo is seasoned all the way through. In the last few minutes of cooking, just stir the shrimp into the orzo to cook, and you have a quick and easy, yet exciting, dinner. Feel free to use a protein of your choice instead of shrimp, but adjust cook times accordingly. Also, consider making a big batch of chermoula and keep it in the fridge to use as a marinade, a dressing on salads or a condiment for sandwiches.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lemons
1 cup finely chopped cilantro
1 cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley
1/4 cup olive oil
3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup orzo
1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
3/4 pound peeled and deveined medium to large shrimp, tails removed

Steps:

  • Make the chermoula: Finely grate the zest from both lemons and set aside for serving, then, into a medium bowl, squeeze 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Stir in the cilantro, parsley, olive oil, garlic, paprika, cumin, salt and sugar and set aside until ready to use. (You can keep the chermoula in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.)
  • Prepare the orzo and shrimp: Heat the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium-high until the butter is melted. Add the orzo and keep stirring until the orzo is lightly golden, about 3 minutes.
  • Add in the chermoula and stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until orzo starts to soften, about 10 minutes. If it looks like the orzo is too dry, add a couple of tablespoons of water to the pan.
  • Stir in the shrimp and cover the pot again until the shrimp and the orzo are both cooked through and most of the liquid has evaporated, 4 to 6 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt if necessary.
  • Serve immediately, topped with the grated lemon zest.
