Crevettes sautées et Romesco aux noisettes

Ingredients for Sautéed Prawns and Hazelnut Romesco

• 8 Nyora chillies

• 2 large red peppers

• 180ml extra-virgin olive oil plus 2 tablespoons

• 60g raw hazelnuts

• 2 tablespoons fine breadcrumbs

• 2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

• 1 medium tomato, peeled and seeded

• 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

• Sel gros et poivre noir fraîchement moulu

• 16 extra-large prawns, shelled, deveined, and rinsed

• 1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped, for garnish

1. Snap the stems from the Nyora peppers. Shake out and discard the seeds. Put the Nyoras in a heatproof bowl and cover with 475ml boiling water. Set a small plate on top to keep the peppers submerged and let sit until softened, about 20 minutes. Discard the soaking liquid. Set the peppers aside.

2. Roast the red peppers: On the stovetop, hold the peppers with tongs over an open burner, turning them until they're blackened uniformly, about 3 to 5 minutes. (Alternatively, put the peppers on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 232°C until the skins become brown and loosen, about 30 minutes.) Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap for 15 minutes, allowing them to steam and cool slightly. Peel the skins from the peppers, remove the seeds, and set the peppers aside.

3. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat, then add the hazelnuts and cook, shaking the pan a few times, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Drain the hazelnuts and let cool slightly. Remove as much paper coating on the nuts as possible. Discard the oil.

4. Make the romesco sauce: Combine the Nyoras, roasted red peppers, hazelnuts, breadcrumbs, garlic, tomatoes, sherry vinegar, and 120ml olive oil in the bowl of a food processor. Season generously with salt and pepper and pulse until completely puréed. Transfer to a small plastic container, cover, and refrigerate until needed. The romesco can be made a day ahead and kept covered in the refrigerator.

5. Heat the remaining 60ml olive oil in a large straight-sided skillet over high heat. Add the prawns, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the prawns turn pink and become firm, about 1 to 2 minutes per side.

6. Warm the cold romesco sauce. Transfer the prawns to a serving platter and serve the romesco sauce on the side. Garnish with the chopped parsley and serve immediately
