Sautéed Lemon Dill Shrimp Recipes

CREAMY LEMON DILL SHRIMP

Steps:

• Rinse shrimp with cold water and pat very dry with paper towels. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet.
• Add shrimp to pan and saute 4-6 minutes over medium-high heat until opaque. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the pan. Once melted, stir in garlic for one minute until fragrant.
• Whisk in chicken broth, then gradually whisk in heavy cream. One sauce is thickened and creamy, reduce heat to low and stir in lemon juice.
• Return shrimp to the pan, toss to coat in the sauce. Stir in dill and garnish with cracked black pepper. Serve immediately.

SAUTéED SHRIMP WITH GARLIC, LEMON, AND HERBS

Steps:

• Heat the oil (2 tablespoons) in a large skillet (I prefer nonstick for this recipe) over medium heat. Add the minced garlic (2 cloves/1 teaspoon), dried oregano (1 teaspoon), and crushed red pepper if using (1/2 teaspoon). Sauté until fragrant and garlic is a little toasted, but not burned (turn heat down to medium-low if necessary), about 2-3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat shrimp dry and season with kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon) and black pepper (1/2 teaspoon).
• Add the shrimp to the skillet and sauté over medium-high heat, until almost cooked completely though and opaque, about 2 minutes on each side.
• Add the lemon juice and white wine (1/4 cup). Stir to coat the shrimp in everything, and continue cooking until liquid has reduced almost completely and thickened (about 2-3 minutes), coating the shrimp in a thick sauce. Transfer to a serving platter or individual plates, making sure to drizzle all the sauce from the skillet on top of the shrimp to serve.

LEMON-DILL SHRIMP

Steps:

• Divide the shrimp between two 8- or 9-inch pie pans and pat them completely dry with a paper towel. Arrange the shrimp so they lay flat and are evenly spaced in the pans.
• Heat 2 large skillets over medium heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper; add a teaspoon of butter to one of the pans and turn the heat to high. When the foam subsides, invert a pan of shrimp over the skillet so they fall into the pan all at once. Repeat with the other shrimp. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until they turn golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Add a remaining teaspoon of butter to each pan and turn off the heat. Turn the shrimp over with tongs and cook for 1 minute in the residual heat of the pans. Add half the zest, juice, and dill to each pan, and shake the pan to combine.
• Divide the shrimp among 4 plates or arrange on a platter. Serve hot or at room temperature.
