Fried Rock Shrimp With Two Remoulade Sauces
Ingredients
- 1 pound rock shrimp, shells and heads removed, and thawed if frozen
- 1/3 cup Essence [2]
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup masa harina corn flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 cups chiffonade mesclun greens, or other lettuces
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- Chopped fresh parsley, garnish
- White Remoulade Sauce [3]
- Red Remoulade Sauce [4]
Directions
- In a medium bowl, combine the buttermilk with 1/4 cup Essence. Place the shrimp in the buttermilk mixture and marinate for 30 minutes.
- In another bowl, combine the masa harina and flour with the remaining 2 tablespoons of Essence. In a pot, heat the oil to 360 degrees F. Dredge the marinated shrimp in the flour mixture and shake the pieces in a strainer to remove any excess.
- Carefully slip the shrimp into the hot oil, and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a bowl, toss the greens with the olive oil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Divide among 4 plates. Arrange the shrimp on the greens and drizzle with the 2 remoulades, passing additional sauce tableside. Garnish with parsley.
