Crab Stuffed Shrimp With Mustard Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a large baking dish and set aside.
• Place the crabmeat in a large bowl and season with the Essence. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery, and bell peppers and cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the parsley and the garlic, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
• Add the cooled vegetables to the crabmeat and toss to combine. Add the mayonnaise, egg, lemon juice, Worcestershire and hot sauce and stir gently with a large wooden spoon. Add 1 cup of the cracker crumbs, the salt, and pepper, and stir gently, being careful not to break up the crabmeat.
• Mound about 2 tablespoons of the crabmeat stuffing into each shrimp, press gently to close, and place, stuffed sides up, in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of the flaky, buttery cracker crumbs over the stuffed shrimp and drizzle with the remaining melted butter. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
• While the shrimp are baking, heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring continuously, for 1 minute. Add the kale and saute until the kale is just wilted, about 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place the kale on 4 plates. Remove the shrimp from the oven and divide among plates, on top of the kale. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven for 350 degrees F.
• To make the crab stuffing: Combine the crab, crackers, scallions, pepper, mayonnaise, egg, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, lemon, and garlic. Season the stuffing with salt and pepper and mix well. Set the stuffing aside.
• Using a paring knife, slice the shrimp down the backs and remove and discard the 'veins'. Deepen the incisions if necessary, then spoon stuffing into each shrimp. Wrap each stuffed shrimp with bacon and arrange them in a large baking dish.
• To make the pesto: pulse the basil, walnuts, cheese, and garlic together in a food processor (or grind in a mortar) then gradually incorporate the oil. Adjust the seasoning with lemon juice and set aside.
• To make the roux: Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, and cook, stirring, until the mixture, although still pale, looks dryer and no longer smells raw, about 5 minutes. Remove the roux from the heat.
• Transfer the shrimp to the oven and roast until the bacon begins to render and brown, about 10 minutes. Flip the shrimp and roast on the second side until the shrimp are opaque, 5 to 10 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, make the lemon basil cream: Heat the oil and butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is fragrant and golden, about 7 minutes. Add the wine and simmer for 5 minutes then add the cream. Simmer until the sauce has reduced by half. Add the lemon juice and pesto, then whisk in the roux a tablespoon at a time (use just enough to thicken the sauce). Keep the sauce warm over very low heat.
• Arrange the shrimp on 4 warm plates and serve with lemon basil cream sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Stuffing Melt butter in pan. Saute onions, peppers, and garlic 3 min over med. heat or until soft. Off heat allow to slightly cool in large bowl. Add crackers through lemon juice and stir to mix. Fold in crab. Butterfly each shrimp down back vein. Fill with crab mixture until overflowing. Anchor together with toothpick. Place on baking tray and brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 350 for 15 - 18 minutes or until shrimp are pink in color and cooked through. Melt butter in small pan. Add flour and cook 1 min (roux). Reserve. Cook shallot and wine in another pan until wine is reduced by 1/2. Add cream and roux. Simmer few minutes until thick. Stir in mustard and season to taste. Serve shrimp drizzled in sauce. Serve with steamed rice and steamed vegetables.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Leaving the tail intact, cut a slit on the inside curve of each shrimp without cutting all the way through. Press open to butterfly.
• In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion, celery and garlic in butter about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Stir in wine; cook about 30 seconds or until bubbly.
• In medium bowl, stir vegetable mixture, bread crumbs, salt, parsley, whipping cream and crabmeat until well mixed. Mound slightly less than 1 tablespoon of stuffing onto each butterflied shrimp, pressing to shape.
• In ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan, place shrimp with stuffing sides up. Sprinkle cheese and paprika over stuffing. Bake about 30 minutes or until shrimp are pink and stuffing is starting to brown.

Steps:

• To make the champagne sauce, add shallots and champagne to a small saucepan over low heat, and reduce until almost dry, about 10 minutes. Add heavy cream and reduce by half then whisk in butter, remove from heat, and serve; do not reheat.
• Sauté all vegetables in butter over medium to high heat until soft; set aside to cool.
• In a large bowl, add mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire and Tabasco sauces, Old Bay Spice and parsley; mix thoroughly.
• Mix vegetables and seasoned mayonnaise together, add crab meat and fold in bread crumbs.
• Make a cut lengthwise in the vein side of each shrimp, slicing only half way through so that the flesh will hold together. Place a spoonful of crab meat filling on each shrimp, cover and chill until ready to use.
• Turn broiler on high and place stuffed shrimp in baking dish with ¼ cup white wine or dry sherry. Place on middle rack of oven and cook for 6 to 7 minutes until shrimp are white and crab stuffing is golden brown.
