Ragu Shrimp Marinara Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 4 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 garlic cloves and cook just until golden and sizzling. Add half the shrimp, placing them in one layer in the pan. (If you crowd the shrimp, they will steam instead of fry.) Sprinkle with salt.
• Cook, turning once, just until lightly golden and pink around the edges, about 4 minutes total. With a slotted spoon, transfer the shrimp to a plate. Discard garlic cloves. Repeat with remaining oil, garlic and shrimp.
• When all the shrimp are cooked, pour the sauce into the empty skillet, and bring to a lively simmer, stirring to scrape the bottom of the pan. Taste for salt and add more if needed.
• Stir in the shrimp, basil (if using) and parsley, and cook just until the shrimp are heated through. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Peel, define and butterfly shrimp. In a bowl, mix shrimp with garlic, 1 tablespoon of the oil and salt. Marinate, refrigerated, 1 hour.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saute pan over high heat. Add shrimp, spreading them so cut surface lies flat. Weight shrimp with a slightly smaller saute pan or other weight, press and sear 30 seconds, and remove to a plate. Add mariner and chicken stock to pan. Reduce rapidly over high heat 5 minutes, or until liquid has evaporated. Return shrimp to pan, toss well and cook until shrimp are warmed through. Season to taste with crushed red pepper, salt and pepper. Serve immediately, sprinkled with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• INSTRUCTIONS:.
• 1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat add the olive oil, onion, bell pepper, and celery and cook until the onion is translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1minute. Add the sausage and chicken and continue cooking until just cooked through. Add the Ragu marinara sauce, tomato paste, chili paste, Worcestershire sauce, marjoram, thyme, chipotle, paprika, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium-low, salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
• 2. While the sauce simmers, begin the polenta. In a large sauce pan over medium-high heat, bring the stock to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the polenta. Cook for 20 minutes while continuing to stir. Reduce to heat to low and stir in the butter and cheese until combined. Add the half and half ¼ cup at a time and stir until creamy, adding more half and half if needed; salt and white pepper to taste.
• 3. Add the shrimp to the simmering sauce until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• 4. Serve the Ragu stew over the polenta.
