To make shrimp sautéed with tomato, soften onion and garlic in a little oil, then cook chopped tomatoes until their juices reduce. Add the shrimp near the end and take the pan off the heat as soon as they turn opaque.
Raw, peeled and deveined shrimp are the easiest choice for shrimp sautéed with tomato because they cook quickly and are ready to eat in the sauce. If using shell-on shrimp, remove the shells at the table or peel them before cooking.
Cook the tomatoes first for shrimp sautéed with tomato, giving their liquid time to evaporate before adding the shrimp. Thawed shrimp should also be drained and patted dry, since excess water can dilute the sauce.
Yes, frozen shrimp work for shrimp sautéed with tomato. Thaw them in the refrigerator, drain them well and pat them dry before cooking; adding them frozen releases extra water and can leave the shrimp unevenly cooked.
Shrimp sautéed with tomato is ready when the shrimp have turned opaque and pink and feel firm, not translucent or mushy. Remove the pan from the heat promptly, because the shrimp continue cooking in the hot tomato sauce.
Serve shrimp sautéed with tomato with crusty bread, rice or pasta to make the most of its sauce. A crisp green salad or simply cooked vegetables make a lighter accompaniment without competing with the tomatoes and shrimp.
It is best to make shrimp sautéed with tomato shortly before serving, because shrimp can become tough when reheated. You can prepare the tomato base ahead, then add the shrimp and cook them just before the meal.
Refrigerate leftover shrimp sautéed with tomato in a covered container once it has cooled, and do not leave it at room temperature for long. For the best texture and flavor, eat it within a few days.
Yes, reheat shrimp sautéed with tomato gently in a pan over low heat, stirring just until it is hot throughout. Avoid prolonged simmering, which makes shrimp rubbery; reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
Yes, canned tomatoes can be used for shrimp sautéed with tomato, especially when fresh tomatoes are out of season. Drain excess liquid if needed and cook the tomatoes down before adding the shrimp so the sauce thickens.
