Recipe : Balsamic Shrimp

 Balsamic Shrimp

Ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds large uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons The Olive Oil Experience 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
2 tablespoons The Olive Oil Experience Organic Butter Infused Olive Oil
1/4 cup The Olive Oil Experience Aged Traditional Balsamic Vinegarsea salt to taste
1 tablespoon snipped chives for garnish

 

Preparation:

Mix the shrimp with the garlic and olive oil in a bowl and set aside to marinate for half an hour.

Heat a skillet large enough to hold the shrimp and when it's hot, add the butter olive oil. Add the shrimp. Using a wooden spoon, flip and toss the shrimp around in the skillet over medium to medium-high heat until they just start turning pink. Add any remaining olive oil and garlic (from marinade in the shrimp bowl); stir well.

Reduce heat to low, add the balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring rapidly so it will combine and coat the shrimp. Continue to cook the shrimp stirring constantly until they're coated with the balsamic glaze and done (1 or 2 minutes), but still springy to the touch.

Remove the shrimp to a serving platter and sprinkle very lightly with the sea salt. Drizzle with the Balsamic Vinegar Glaze from the skillet and sprinkle with the snipped chives. Serve immediately.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
