Louisiana Shrimp in a Garlic-Tomato Broth

This is a recipe that I found in The Stinking Rose Cookbook- recipes from the Stinking Rose Restaurant in California (all about garlic!) It is one of my favorites, and amazing to eat with crusty bread.


Ingredients: 

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 yellow onion, finely chopped

6 cloves garlic, minced

2 leaves fresh sage

1 (14.5-ounce) can chopped tomatoes with juice

1 teaspoons grated fresh ginger root

1 cup bottled clam juice

1 teaspoon garlic salt

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley

Freshly ground black pepper

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 1/2 lbs shrimp, peeled


In a heavy saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the sage and sauté 4 to 5 minutes, until sage is crisp. Using the edge of a wooden spoon, break the sage into pieces in the pan.

Stir in the tomatoes and ginger, increase the heat to medium-heat, and bring to a boil. Add the clam juice, garlic salt, pepper flakes, and parsley and season with pepper. Decrease the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced by about one-fourth. Add the 4 tablespoons of the butter, stirring to melt the butter.

In a heavy skillet, melt the reaming 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat and add the shrimp, stirring them until they turn pink, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and immediately add the shrimp to the tomato broth. Ladle into a large bowl or individual bowls and serve with crusty bread.
