Polenta with Shrimp and Tomatoes
Polenta e schie, a specialty of Venice, Italy, is polenta topped with tiny local shrimp called schie. The dish typically is a minimalist, sauce-free marriage of corn and crustacean, but Michela Tasca, owner of Ca’ de Memi farm and bed and breakfast in Piombino Dese, just north of Venice, taught us a version in which […]
Spaghetti al Farouk
This is a unique dish, and one that is near and dear to my heart. When I was a girl, my family owned a beach house on Abruzzo’s Adriatic coast. I have many wonderful memories of whiling away summer days on the beach with friends and enjoying late-night marathon meals that featured freshly caught […]
Shrimp in Chipotle Sauce (Camarones Enchipotlados)
The key to Diana Kennedy’s shrimp in chipotle sauce is the flavorful sauce made from chipotle peppers and the adobo in which they are packed. They give the dish a pleasant, lingering heat and a deep smoky flavor. Kennedy makes her own, but canned chipotles in adobo work equally well. Kennedy’s original recipe called […]
Singapore Noodles for Two
Singapore noodles, a Hong Kong favorite, can sometimes be so heavily seasoned with curry powder that they can feel unpleasantly dusty and gritty. We start by blooming the curry powder in oil, which smooths out the texture and intensifies the flavor. Though the noodles are the main feature in the traditional dish, we tweak the […]
Garlic Shrimp and White Beans
Canned beans are your friend in this garlic shrimp recipe.
Red Curry with Shrimp and Lentils
This Thai red curry recipe is so easy to make with red curry paste and coconut milk, served with shrimp and lentils, though you can use your favorite proteins and vegetables. Done in under 30 minutes!
Pasta with Shrimp and Browned Butter
We build big flavor into this dish by cooking tagliatelle or pappardelle—dried pastas made with egg—in a skillet, directly in the liquid that becomes the pasta sauce. The noodles’ delicate texture pairs perfectly with sweet, briny shrimp and the nuttiness of browned butter. Use larger-sized shrimp, large or extra-large, so they remain tender and plump. […]
P. F. Chang’s China Bistro Shrimp Dumplings
P.F. Chang's serves scrumptious shrimp dumplings. Mounds of shrimp and other yummy ingredients are wrapped in wonton wrappers and steamed. You can also order them pan-fried, which makes the bottom of each little package a nice crispy brown. The dumplings are served with a soy-based dipping sauce. You don't have to be concerned about the […]
Fried Shrimp Tacos with Salsa Roja
At Mariscos Jalisco, Raul Ortega’s food truck in the Boyle Heights area of Los Angeles, the tacos de camarón, or shrimp tacos, are the main attraction, and for good reason. Ortega stuffs a perfectly seasoned shrimp filling into tortillas and fries the tacos to golden brown crispness before finishing them with tomato salsa and avocado. […]
Lemon and Shrimp Risotto with Fresh Basil
This is our version of the rich, intensely flavored risotto di limone that Giovanna Aceto taught us to make in Amalfi, Italy. In an unusual twist, the risotto is finished with an egg yolk and a couple tablespoons of cream, giving the rice a lush, velvety taste and texture. To create a flavorful broth for […]
One-Pan Mediterranean Shrimp
Unlike other proteins that look anemic if not seared over direct heat, naturally vibrant pink shrimp are great candidates for the oven. Since shrimp cook so quickly, we jump-started the potatoes and fennel before sprinkling the Mediterranean-flavored shellfish over the top to finish in the oven. Briny kalamata olives and salty feta cheese gave […]
Lemon Garlic Shrimp Pasta
Lemon garlic shrimp pasta is the perfect dish to make when you want to make an impression, with minimal effort. Shrimp are gently sauteed and then tossed with al dente pasta, in a buttery, garlicky concoction of parsley, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Whether you’re a shrimp cooking veteran or a beginner, this is the […]
Easy Creole Jambalaya
Jambalaya is a wildly popular dish that originated in New Orleans and was inspired by flavors from around the world—Spanish, West African, and French to name a few. It's spicy, hearty, and incredibly flavorful. And as with most things, the better ingredients, the better the end result will taste. You can add all different […]
Shrimp Scampi Pasta
Buttery, garlicky, irresistible shrimp scampi—but make it pasta. We like how the heat from the red pepper flakes cuts through all the richness in this dish, but if you’re spice-sensitive, hold back half of the chile (you can always serve more on the side). This recipe calls for frozen shrimp, which we’re huge fans of. […]

Say hello to your broiler, that super-intense direct heat source in your oven that, like a grill, crisps food fast. While it heats, toss shrimp and green beans in a fiery sauce of gochujang (a Korean fermented chile paste), soy sauce, and honey, then broil for mere minutes. The shrimp and green beans emerge with […]
