From a seafood only cookbook. An interesting and simple seafood pesto Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs raw large shrimp, peeled and deveined |
1 1/2 cups packed fresh basil leaves |
1/4 cup almonds (any style) |
1 large garlic clove |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
salt |
fground black pepper |
crusty bread |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Arrange the shrimp in a shallow baking dish large enough for the shrimp to make just one layer, or divide them evenly among four individual baking dishes.
3. Combine the remaining ingredients (except bread) in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour this pesto mixture over the shrimp.
4. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until shrimp are just firm. Serve the shrimp with crusty bread. You can prepare this dish up to 8 hours ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake.
