Steakhouse Shrimp Cocktail With Sister Sauces Recipes

SHRIMP COCKTAIL WITH THREE SAUCES

Steps:

• Make the mango-basil sauce: Pulse mangoes, lemon rind and juice, vinegar, salt, and white pepper in a food processor until smooth. Fold in basil. (Sauce can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.)
• Make the tomato-horseradish sauce: Stir together chili sauce, horseradish, and lemon juice. Season with black pepper. (Sauce can be refrigerated for up to 1 week.)
• Make the remoulade: Whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard. Stir in celery, parsley, and scallion. Season with black pepper. Serve immediately (or refrigerate for up to 1 day).
• Place shell-on shrimp in a large bowl, or peel shrimp and arrange in small serving dishes. Serve with the 3 sauces on the side.

STEAKHOUSE SHRIMP COCKTAIL WITH SISTER SAUCES

Steps:

• Poach the shrimp: Add 6 cups of water to a medium-sized saucepan. Squeeze the lemon juice into the saucepan and then add in the lemon halves as well. Add the parsley sprigs, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and peppercorns and bring to a simmer. Once the water is simmering, add the shrimp and cook until just opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the poaching liquid and chill completely.
• To serve: Cover a platter with crushed ice and arrange the shrimp on top. Serve with the Spicy Cocktail and Lemon-Basil cocktail sauces.
• Add the ketchup, chipotle, horseradish and lemon juice to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
• Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, basil, lemon zest, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a small bowl and whisk to combine.

FRIED CLAMS WITH TARTAR AND COCKTAIL SAUCES

Steps:

• Combine the corn flour, all-purpose flour, seafood seasoning, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk and egg in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
• Add enough oil to a heavy-bottomed pot fitted with a deep-frying thermometer to reach 4 inches up the sides. Heat the oil to 365 degrees F and line a sheet tray with paper towels.
• Dip the clams in the milk, then into the seasoned flour. Add 8 to 10 clams to the oil at a time and fry in batches until they are crispy and golden brown, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Remove the clams to the lined sheet tray. Continue frying the remaining clams.
• Sprinkle the clams with salt and pepper and transfer to a platter. Serve with the Tartar and Cocktail sauces and lemon wedges.
• Stir together the mayonnaise, relish, dill, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
• Stir together the ketchup, chile paste, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and refrigerate until serving, or up to 1 week.
