   Shrimp & Jalapeno Nachos for Cinco de Mayo or Cinco de Anytime

   Thu, 2 May 2013

   These simple and addictive shrimp and jalapeno nachos are not only a nice alternative to more common versions, but a great reminder of how this iconic snack was actually intended to be served. Contrary to current fashion, nachos didn’t start out as a giant pile of chips drenched in ladles of florescent gold cheese sauce. The earliest versions were made by simply broiling a single layer of cheese-topped chips, which were then garnished with jalapeno peppers – simple and elegant, with every chip genetically identical to the next. Over time we’ve added hundreds of toppings, as well as replaced the broiled (real) cheese with something that you can also use to grease an axel. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy the aforementioned version just as much as the next guy wearing pajama jeans, but once in a while it’s good to revisit a simpler time in American snacking. If you’re planning to party, I wish you a fun and safe Cinco de Mayo, and hope you give these very tasty chips a try. Enjoy! Ingredients for 4 Portions: 1 pound peeled and deveined shrimp (I used 50-60 per pounds size, which are ideal for this) 1 tbsp vegetable or olive oil pinch of cayenne 1/4 tsp ground chipotle pepper salt and pepper to taste 50-60 large tortilla chips, or as needed 2 jalapeno peppers , sliced very thin about 3 1/2 cups of shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese avocado creama (1 avocado, 1 cup sour cream, and juice of 1 lemon or 2 limes; liquefied in a blender) sliced cherry tomatoes and freshly chopped cilantro to garnish

   -Hi everyone, I'm Judith. Well today, we're making shrimp scampi style, yes, one of my favorites, very quick and easy to do. So, the ingredients on these is 24 large shrimp , half a teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 3 tablespoons of minced garlic, 1/3 of cup of minced shallots, 2 cups of dry white wine, 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, half a teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of finely chopped Italian parsley, and 2 teaspoons of snipped fresh thyme. Lovely flavors we have there for our shrimp . So, in a large skillet next to us, we're gonna get it on a medium heat, and we're gonna add in our butter and olive oil. There you go. We'll let that melt, and while that is melting, Let's get our shrimp . Now, this has been peeled and deveined, but we've left the tail on. So, that's that, and we're gonna just season it with some of salt right there. So, give that a good stir. Get all that salt on our shrimp , fantastic, all right, we'll set that aside. So, as this is melting nicely, we're then gonna in or minced garlic first of

   up there for about 3 minutes. Now, it's time add in our shrimp . So, in there goes, fantastic, and to that we're also gonna add in our wine, wow, those flavors, so intense and so beautiful. Lemon juice goes in there of course, lovely little bit of citrus with our shrimp and half a teaspoon of salt. So, now it's all in there, we're gonna bring it to the boil, and it's nearly boiling up there. Once this is brought to the boil, we're then gonna reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 2 to 3 minutes turn opaque. Don't overcook the shrimp . One of my [unk], we just want our shrimp nice and opaque. So, as it's boiling now, we'll reduce that heat, and let is simmer there for 2 to 3 minutes, and you can give it a turn too. Okay, it's been about 2 to 3 minutes and our shrimp is done. So, with the slotted spoon, make sure we let go of all the excess liquid, and we'll just plate that

   that reduces down and that's gonna be the perfect sauce for our shrimp and we'll do that for about 15 minutes. So, this lovely sauce for our shrimp is now done. You can see it's thickened. It's reduced for to about a cup, and that is looking very, very good. So, last, but not that least, let's add in our herbs. In there go, the thyme in there too. Give that a good stir, and then to that, let's just add in some of those shrimp and get that all covered up nicely with the herby sauce. Wow, that impressive and it's a quick dish to make at

   Judith. Well today, I'm gonna be showing you how to make boiled shrimp with spicy mayonnaise. This is a fantastic appetizer or a nice dish to serve at a party. So, what you'll need for this is 2 very fresh organic egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of hot mustard powder, 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice, 1 cup of canola oil, salt, white pepper, 1 tablespoon of water and 1 pound of medium shrimp peeled and deveined. Alright, so first of all, let's work on our mayonnaise. Now, I love doing homemade mayonnaise. The key is

   we'll see that aside for the moment. Now, here we have our shrimp . They are peeled. They are deveined. Now, if you wanna actually leave peel on that's fine too because actually the peel contains a lot of flavor, but for now we've taken off the peel and I've left the tails on, but that's really just for aesthetic reasons. If you prefer the tail off, that's fine too. Now, to the side of me, I have a big putt of boiling water. That's nice and boiling there. We wanna add our shrimp to the boiling water. Now, literally, ounce our shrimp starts becoming pinky peachy color they're done, they're ready. Do not overcook your shrimp . That's like the worse thing you can do. So, please, once they've become pink, that's all they need, get them out of their and that's fine and before you handle your shrimp or when you're cooking, make sure it's nice and cold on ice before you put it in the water. Alright, so, let's get these guys in there and as I said that's gonna cook up pretty quickly, couple of minutes, maybe 3 minutes max. We're gonna plate that, serve it with the mayonnaise and that will be it. We'll I've turned the heat off. Shrimp are done. They've become a nice pinky peach color and that's what know. So, let's drain off these and serve up a

   that at home. So there you go, there's a few of our shrimp onto the plate and we'll just serve that with some of these beautiful creamy mayonnaise. Oh, that is just perfection. There you go, that is one beautiful dish. That's how you make boiled shrimp with spicy mayonnaise.
