Spicy Shrimp Mashed Hominy Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, garlic, red pepper flakes and shrimp. Season with grill seasoning or salt and pepper and cook shrimp 3 minutes or until just pink. Toss with lemon zest, juice and chopped parsley. Remove shrimp to a serving platter leaving the garlic cloves in the pan.

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat.
• In a small bowl, crush the garlic with the salt. Mix in cayenne pepper and paprika, and then stir in olive oil and lemon juice to form a paste. In a large bowl, toss shrimp with garlic paste until evenly coated.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with lemon wedges, and serve.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large stock pot.
• Saute onion, celery and carrot until tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add salt, pepper, cayenne and cloves.
• Add chicken broth and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Using a hand held blender, blend until smooth (I don't have one of these so I use my food processor in batches or electric blender. Or if you like your chowder with the chunks in it, as the recipe owner does, you can skip this step completely).
• Add hominy and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Mix 1 cup of the half and half with flour until smooth and add to stock pot.
• Add sugar, remaining half and half and shrimp. Bring mixture to the point of almost boiling.
• Add cheese and heat thoroughly, stirring until cheese is melted and soup is creamy.

Add chicken broth, golden hominy, crushed tomatoes and chipotle chilies; bring to simmer. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Soup can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cool slightly. Refrigerate soup uncovered until cold, then cover soup and refrigerate.)
• Bring soup to simmer over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook until opaque in center, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Stir in chopped fresh cilantro. Divide soup among 10 soup bowls. Top soup with dried tortilla strips, dividing equally. Serve soup, passing lime wedges separately.
