Langoustines in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 10 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make baked langoustines in the oven? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Thaw the langoustines in the refrigerator first. In this case, they will better retain their taste and beneficial properties. I have boiled and frozen langoustines, they are pink in color. If the langoustines are raw (gray-green in color), they must first be boiled in boiling salted water for 5-6 minutes depending on their size.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the langoustines well under cold water and cut off all the legs with scissors. Make a cut along the top of the langoustine from the head to the tail, removing the black thread (intestinal vein) so that the langoustines do not acquire a bitter taste. Slice the top of the langoustine slightly to allow the marinade to penetrate the meat better. Rinse the langoustines again and dry thoroughly so that no water remains on them.

3. STEP 3

   

   How to make a marinade? Peel the garlic, pass through a press or chop using a fine grater.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash the parsley under running water, dry, and finely chop. Greens will give the marinade a spicy taste and aroma.

5. STEP 5

   

   In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, stir. Taste the marinade and add a little salt if necessary. Read the article at the end of the recipe for the best oil to choose.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add prepared garlic and parsley, stir. If you prefer a spicier taste, ground black pepper will do the trick.

7. STEP 7

   

   Brush each langoustine with marinade on all sides. And be sure to remember to grease the cut part of the langoustine so that it is saturated with the marinade inside. You can use a pastry brush for this. It was convenient for me to do this with a regular spoon, it makes it easier to pour the marinade inside the langoustine.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place the prepared langoustines on a baking sheet (I lined it with aluminum foil) or other suitable baking dish. Cover the top of the pan and leave the langoustines for 30-40 minutes to soak in the marinade.

9. STEP 9

   

   Open the pan and bake the langoustines in an oven preheated to 180C for 10-15 minutes. Baking time is approximate and will depend on the operating characteristics of the oven and the size of the langoustines. Read about ovens in the article below the steps. The main thing is not to overcook the seafood delicacy so that the langoustine meat does not become dry and tough. Langoustines can be served with a side dish (rice or pasta). Once cooled, they will be a delicious cold snack. Bon appetit
