This is no longer a health concern, because shrimp is low-fat with a rich content of highly unsaturated fatty acids, which lead to the formation of high-density lipids, commonly known as good cholesterol. Consuming shrimp may actually lower blood cholesterol levels. So, heres a great shrimp dish I make quite often. The original recipe came out of an old Weight Watcher Cookbook, but as always (something I learned from my Grandma) I usually throw in a few extras to make it taste better and substitute some ingredients, but its still healthy cooking. I lost 40 lbs. on these recipes even with additions. Heres a tip I would like to pass on about fish. I always soak it in milk before cooking; it seems to take away any bad fishy taste. Shrimp in Spicy Mustard Sauce 12 oz. shrimp, peeled, deveined 2/3 cup fat free & , or substitute evaporated skim, regular skim or low-fat milk or soy milk 2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard teaspoon curry powder teaspoon cumin teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon lemon juice teaspoon chicken bullion powder or 1 cube 1 tablespoon olive oil onion, minced 4 garlic cloves, minced Parsley Parmesan Cheese (optional) 1. Shell & devein shrimp and set aside. 2. In 1-cup liquid measure combine milk, mustard and seasonings, set aside (if you are using milk instead of the fat free & , mix some of the milk with a tablespoon of cornstarch and add to sauce at end to thicken.) 3. In a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; add shrimp, onion and garlic, stir constantly until shrimp just turns pink, 2 to 3 minutes. 4. Pour milk mixture into skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low, (add cornstarch mixture if using) let simmer until slightly thickened, 1 or 2 minutes. 5. Using a slotted spoon, remove shrimp to serving platter; set aside. 6. Increase heat to medium-high; continue cooking sauce until mixture is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over shrimp and sprinkle with parsley and parmesan. Makes 2 servings This is great served over noodles or rice. Hope you enjoy your shrimp! |
