Shrimp Succotash Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Meanwhile, bring 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Once boiling, add the butter beans and return to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the beans are al dente, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat, strain, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Set aside.
• While the butter beans are cooking, prepare the okra: Spread the okra in an even layer on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Roast the okra for 16 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over medium. Add the Andouille sausage and cook until it's crisp and the fat has rendered. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the onion, bell pepper and garlic to the rendered fat in the skillet or Dutch oven, and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the corn, tomatoes, lima beans, okra, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and Andouille sausage. Stir, cover, and cook for about 8 minutes over medium heat.
• As vegetables cook, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels, then generously season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
• In a separate large (12-inch) skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high. Once the oil is shimmering, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until pink and cooked through. Stir the cooked shrimp into the succotash.
• Add the fresh basil and stir. Taste, and adjust seasoning as needed. Turn off heat and let sit uncovered for about 5 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Poach shrimp: In a medium pot, combine 6 cups water, Old Bay, and lemon; bring to a boil. Add shrimp and simmer until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, discard lemon, and transfer shrimp to a bowl.
• To serve: Toss shrimp with vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons oil. In a large skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add green beans and cook until bright green, 4 minutes. Add corn and zucchini; saute until crisp-tender, 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Top with shrimp mixture, season with salt and pepper, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes.
• Leaving the drippings in the pan, use tongs to transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels; let cool.
• Add oil to the pan.
• Add scallions (or onion), bell pepper, garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in edamame, corn, broth, vinegar and salt.
• Bring to a simmer; reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle shrimp on both sides with lemon pepper.
• Scatter the shrimp on top of the vegetables, cover and cook until the shrimp are cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Crumble the bacon and sprinkle it on top.
• *TIP: Tip: Edamame are found in the natural-foods freezer section of large supermarkets and natural-foods stores, sold both in and out of the "pods." For this recipe, you'll need the shelled edamame. One 10-ounce bag contains about 2 cups of shelled beans.

Steps:

• Place beans in medium bowl. Pour enough cold water over to cover by 3 inches and let stand overnight. Drain.
• Combine 5 cups water, onion slice, celery, garlic and bay leaf in medium saucepan; boil 5 minutes. Add shrimp; simmer just until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Using tongs, transfer shrimp to bowl. Reserve cooking liquid. Peel and devein shrimp; cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add beans to shrimp cooking liquid. Cover and simmer until beans are tender and liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup, adding more water if necessary, about 40 minutes. Discard bay leaf and celery. (Shrimp and beans can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.)
• Cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels. Cut into small pieces. Discard all but 1 teaspoon drippings in skillet. Add chopped onion; sauté over medium-low heat until golden, about 10 minutes. Add corn and beans with their cooking liquid; simmer until corn is tender, about 8 minutes. Add shrimp and bacon; stir until heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chives.
