One of the quick and easy shrimp dishes to prepare is cognac shrimp with beurre blanc sauce. The beurre blanc, shallots, white wine, and the lemon juice are to be simmered in a small saucepan on low-medium heat from 5-10 minutes. Add the cream after it is reduced to about two tablespoons. Then, the 12 tablespoons of butter are added, one at a time, letting each one melt before adding the next one. Continue to whisk constantly. The beurre blanc sauce then is seasoned with white peppers and set aside after the butter is fully incorporated.Then, the five tablespoons of butter are melted in a skillet on high heat, and then the saute shrimp are turned a few times for about 3-4 minutes until cooked. The shrimp is seasoned with salt. Reduce the heat to low. The cognac is added and stirred thoroughly.After that, the warm beurre blanc sauce can be spooned over the hot shrimp. This only takes about 15 minutes to prepare and 25 minutes to cook. Also, it could be served with red pepper bean salad and couscous. This makes two servings. For some people, it is impossible to go out for a romantic dinner after a late night at the office. People light the candles and saute a batch of Cognac shrimp with beurre blanc sauce. Give it that special touch by adding chopped, fresh parsley and a petite spoonful of caviar.In the 1920s, the creation of the French food dishes became fine dinning for the rich.
