or in plain English: Shrimp in Garlic Sauce.

I should have taken a picture of the table on the performer. It would have shown the 4 plate lineup to do this.
It's a very fast cook - much like stir fry.

Hey... these frustrums are good for more than wings.

Got the skillet to a med high heat & sauteed a pound of shrimp in 3 tbs evoo for 30 seconds.

Added another tbs of oil, 3 cloves minced garlic, 1 stemmed, seeded, minced jalapeno, & 1/4 cup minced onion.
Cooked for 30 seconds more.

Then 1/3 cup tomato puree, 1/8 cup lime juice & some salt/pepper (1/2 tsp each or so). Stirred that for a minute.

And finally... 1/2 cup shredded cabbage & some chopped cilantro for another minute.

Served on a bed of Spanish rice. Time To Eat!

Rice is real hit & miss with me - this time it was a bit al dente. Shrimp was good, though.
Will do it again.

I can see why you didn't have much time for pictures. Outstanding looking meal Robert. I love shrimp and my wife REALLY loves shrimp. I'd like to give that a go one of these days.

Looks fantastic, Robert! With those quick cooks it's a challenge to grab pics amidst the flurry of activity. You captured the process well, though, and the shrimp look great!

Robert that looks excellent. I have the same thing with rice, at 5500 feet it's a crap shoot if it will come out okay. Mushy one time half cooked the next.

 

[Barb D]

WOW!!! Robert you nailed that one. Great job.

 

[JimT]

That just went on my "Must Do" list. Well done!

 

[Phil Perrin]

Have you tried the Mexican Rice from ATK? If not, I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.

OT:

I ordered a shrimp burrito from Beto's today (cheap Mexican restaurant chain), & it was filled with a large amount of Spanish rice, a little cabbage, some shrimp, & a little bit of white sauce. I first found this burrito late after a Halloween party several years ago & was surprised how good it was ------ they're almost always very good. I'm going to make some of my copy into burritos...but I'm full now, just ate the 2nd half. quizas la proxima fin de semana.
