This has become Evan and I's new favorite. It is INCREDIBLY flavorful, thanks to the homemade broth. It does take some patience and time, due to peeling and de-veining the shrimp, but I promise it's worth it.
From Food Network Magazine
Ingredients:
1 and 1/2 lbs. medium-sized shrimp in the shell (you can buy these fresh in the meat/seafood section, or frozen)
1 tbs. creole seasoning
6 tbs. unsalted butter
2 bunches scallions, chopped
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup frozen corn
2 roma tomatoes
1. Peel the shrimp and reserve the shells. Devein the shrimp and rinse in a colander. Drain and pat dry; sprinkle with creole seasoning.
2. Heat 2 tbs. butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add the shells and half of the scallions and cook until the shells turn pink, about 1-2 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce and 1 and 1/2 cups water and cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Strain the shrimp broth through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl; discard the solids.
3. Melt the remaining 4 tbs. butter in the skillet over high heat. Add shrimp and remaining scallions until the shrimp start to turn pink, about 1 minute. Add the reserved shrimp broth and simmer until cooked through, about 3 more minutes.
4. Put the corn in a microwave-safe dish and cook on high for 2-3 minutes. Cut the tomatoes into chunks. Divide corn and tomatoes between 2 bowls. Add the shrimp and ladle in the broth.
