Shrimp Dip Recipe #2 – Jerez Style (serves 4)
This shrimp dip recipe comes from friends in the town of Jerez Spain.
- 1 pound certified Wild Georgia Shrimp, peeled & de-veined, 21-25 count
- 1/2 cup minced fresh tomatoes
- 1/3 cup minced white onion
- 1/2 cup cream sherry
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons clarified butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons minced parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
- Whole grain chips, crackers, or bread chips.
- Heat the olive oil large sauce pan to hold 25 shrimp - The best cooking temperature for frying in olive oil is about 355 °F. Any hotter and the oil will begin to smoke in the pan. How do determine the temperature? We recommend purchasing a simple cooking thermometer at any food or retail store. An alternative method is to place a small piece of bread on the oil. If it turns golden brown in less than a minute the temperature is OK.
- Add butter and melt over medium heat.
- Add onion and garlic and sauté until transparent.
- Add basil, black pepper and shrimp.
- Increase heat to high and sauté 1 minute.
