Shrimp Oreganata

Serves: 3 to 4

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 pounds extra large (about 16 to 20) peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 8 ounces unsalted butter
  • 4 ounces peeled and minced garlic
  • 6 ounces sliced shallots
  • 24 ounces white wine
  • 1 cup plain bread crumbs
  • 2 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Fairway dried oregano
  • 1/2 bunch flat leaf parsley, chopped
  • 4 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 ounces sliced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons Fairway sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons Fairway black pepper

DIRECTIONS

  1. Combine bread crumbs with salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, and oregano, and set aside.
  2. Heat pan, and add butter. When melted, add garlic and shallots, and saute for 2 minutes on medium-high heat.
  3. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, then add shrimp, and toss everything around in pan.
  4. Add in white wine, and cook until the smell of the alcohol is gone.
  5. Toss in half your seasoned bread crumbs, and mix until sauce begins to thicken.
  6. At this point, the shrimp should only be three-quarters of the way cooked. They should still be a little blue, and not completely curled up.
  7. Pour the shrimp and the sauce into a casserole pan.
  8. Sprinkle the top of the shrimp with the remaining bread crumbs, and broil in oven on high for 1 minute to brown the bread crumbs and finish cooking the shrimp.
  9. In a separate bowl, mix the tomatoes, onion, and parsley, and garnish the casserole with this mixture before serving.
Chef's Note: If you don't want to garnish the dish with the tomatoes and onions, simply use sliced lemon and parsley instead.
