SHRIMP AND FRIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Slice potatoes lengthwise into ¼ inch thick slices. Then lay the slices flat, and cut ¼ inch sticks to make a french fry shape.
• Transfer potatoes to a large bowl of cold water, and allow to soak for 30 mins.
• After potatoes have soaked, drain the water, rinse and drain the potatoes again, then transfer potatoes to a clean kitchen towel. Use paper towels to thoroughly dry the potatoes as best as you can. Wash out the soaking bowl, and dry it well.
• Add potatoes back to the bowl along with canola oil, salt, and pepper. Toss the potatoes to evenly coat in oil and spices.
• Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees. Arrange potatoes in a single layer (all fries will not fit at once), and air fry for 16-18 minutes, tossing the fries once half way through cooking.
• Repeat with additional batches until all potatoes have been cooked.
• Alternatively, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spread fries out in an even layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 40-45 mins tossing the fries once half way through cooking. Set fries aside. If desired, keep fries warm by spreading them on a parchment lined baking sheet, and keeping them in an oven set to 200 degrees.
• Give the grated cucumber a squeeze with your hands to release some of the extra liquid.
• Add the cucumber to a mixing bowl along with the greek yogurt, garlic, dill, olive oil, lemon juice, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp pepper. Stir well to combine.
• Set aside in the fridge to chill.
• Use the bowl that mixed the fries, and drain any leftover liquid. Add the shrimp to the bowl along with grapeseed oil, greek seasoning, garlic powder, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp.
• With the air fryer still preheated to 390 degrees, add the shrimp in a single layer to the air fryer basket (all shrimp will probably not fit at once). Cook for 4-5 mins until the shrimp are cooked through and opaque.
• Repeat with additional batches until all shrimp have been cooked.
• Alternatively, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange shrimp in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. Roast for 8-10 mins until shrimp are completely cooked through and opaque. Set shrimp aside.
• Arrange french fries on individual plates or a serving platter. Top with shrimp, red onion, tomatoes, tzatziki sauce, feta cheese, and chopped green onions. Serve!

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil and olive oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 3 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• Remove shrimp from the skillet using a slotted spoon, allowing oils and cooking juices to remain in the skillet. Place shrimp on a plate and set aside.
• Add peas and carrots and corn to the skillet and cook, stirring intermittently, until vegetables begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. Push vegetables to the side of the skillet, pour eggs into the other side, and cook to scramble, stirring as necessary, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Stir shrimp, rice, and green onions into the skillet. Drizzle evenly with soy sauce, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cook until shrimp is reheated through, about 2 minutes.
