Chili Roasted Shrimp:
1 lb. Deli Large-Head-On Shrimp
1/2 Cup Plus 2 T. Olive Oil
Preferably Fresh Paprika Chiles Or 3 Red Jalapenos, Stemmed, Not Seeded & Thinly Sliced
2 Garlic Cloves, Thinly Sliced
1 T. Dried Oregano
1 T. Kosher Salt
1 Tsp. Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Juice Of 1 Lemon
1 Cup Shrimp Stock Or Water
1 T. Butter
Wash shrimp under cold water in colander.
In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with 1/2 cup of the olive oil, jalapeños, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice and toss well to mix. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate the shrimp at room temperature for 20 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 6 hours.
Preheat your oven as high as it will go and arrange a rack in the middle. Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven for at least 10 minutes so that it gets extremely hot. (A good pan to use for this, is a thin blue steel pan; they are very cheap and conduct heat really well.) Meanwhile, remove the shrimp from the marinade and discard the marinade. Very carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and gently spread the shrimp across it in one layer—a little crowding is ok. Roast the shrimp until they turn bright pink, 5-8 minutes, stirring only once. (Opening the oven too many times will allow too much heat to escape.)
Remove the shrimp from the oven and immediately pour the stock or water over them while still on the baking sheet. Finish with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and butter; toss to coat evenly. (The heat of the baking sheet should cause the liquids to bubble and reduce slightly. If the pan doesn’t seem quite hot enough, you can transfer the liquid to a saucepan and place it over medium-high heat, allowing the sauce to reduce for a minute or two, then toss with the shrimp.)
