A completely delightful dish for two or a really smart appetizer! Ginger and cilantro liven this French classic fusing it with a Southwest Asian flare. Discovered in Gourmet Magazine, 9/08. Thank you to Vicki in Kansas Brown for the garlic suggestion.
Ingredients:
12 ounces shrimp, peeled deveined
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon gingerroot, peeled and grated
1/4 cup medium-dry sherry
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
Directions:
1. Heat butter over medium high heat in a heavy skillet until foam subsides, then saute ginger and garlic for about 30 seconds.
2. Pat shrimp dry and season with salt. Add to ginger and saute 2 minutes.
3. Add sherry and saute 1-2 minutes more or until shrimp are just cooked through.
4. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired and serve.
