Braised Shrimp And Creamy Endive Recipes

Steps:

• In a skillet large enough to hold endive in one layer, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add endive, and cook, turning occasionally, until brown all over, about 7 minutes.
• Cover with a parchment-paper round, and then a tight-fitting lid. Reduce heat to very low, and cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 20 to 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Remove and discard a layer of exterior leaves from each endive so that only smooth and unblemished leaves are showing. Trim 1/4 inch from the bottoms and discard. Halve each endive lengthwise, keeping the leaves connected at the base.
• Heat the broiler to high. Set a large wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and swirl to coat. When butter begins to sizzle, arrange endive halves in one layer, cut side down. Season with salt and pepper and let cook for about 5 minutes, until lightly browned. Adjust the heat so that the endives cook slowly and do not scorch. Turn endives over, sprinkle with salt, and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together crème fraîche, mustard and lemon juice. When endives are cooked on both sides, smear the cut surfaces liberally with this mixture.
• Place skillet under broiler, about 3 inches away from heat source. Broil for about 5 minutes, until well browned, crisped and bubbling.
• In a small bowl, combine tarragon, chives and parsley.
• Transfer endives to a serving platter or individual plates. Drizzle with any remaining juices in pan. Sprinkle herbs on top and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a heavy skillet over high flame, melt half of the butter. Season endive. Place 4 halves of the endive cut-side down and cook until browned. Repeat with remaining butter and endive. Place endive, cut-side up in a gratin dish. Pour stock around endive, cover with aluminum foil, and bake in 400 degree oven for 15 minutes. Season again with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Using the metal blade of your Food Processor, place parsley in work bowl and process until finely chopped; remove and reserve. Add shallot and pulse to chop finely, about 10 pulses. Heat butter in a Cuisinart nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add curry powder and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Set aside to cool.
• Add shrimp to work bowl; pulse to finely chop, about 5 times. Remove and reserve. Process cream cheese until smooth, about 15 seconds; scrape work bowl. Add parsley, cooled shallot mixture, and chopped shrimp. Pulse to combine, about 8 times.
• Trim 1/2-inch from bottom of endive leaves. Separate into individual leaves and choose 24 of the nicest leaves. Pipe or spread a small amount of shrimp/cream cheese mixture onto bottom half of leaves. Arrange on flat serving dish. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring 5 cups of water and seafood seasoning to a boil. Add shrimp; return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes or until shrimp turn pink. Drain; set aside three shrimp for garnish. Chop the remaining shrimp., In a large skillet, saute onion, celery, green pepper and green onions in butter until tender. In a large bowl, combine the stuffing, cornbread, chopped shrimp, sauteed vegetables and seasonings. Stir in the remaining water. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 10-15 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Garnish with celery leaves if desired and reserved shrimp.

Steps:

• Trim off and discard any discolored leaves from the outside of the endives. Put the endives in a saucepan and add 1 tablespoon of the butter and the lemon juice, salt, pepper, sugar and water. Cover tightly; bring to a boil and simmer 30 minutes or until tender.
• Drain the endives and press them gently to remove any excess moisture.
• Heat the remaining butter in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the endives in one layer. Brown the endives on all sides over medium-high heat. They should be light brown when cooked.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet. Dip the shrimp in the egg, then coat the shrimp with bread crumbs. Fry the shrimp in the hot oil.
