Cumin Dusted Shrimp with Black Eyed Peas and Collards
Cumin Dusted Shrimp with Black Eyed Peas and Collards
Cover black-eyed peas with cold water in a medium bowl. Let soak 1 hour or overnight; drain.
Place black-eyed peas, onion, celery, bell pepper, one-third of garlic, bay leaf, 1 teaspoon thyme, and 1 1/2 quarts cold water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium, and cook until beans are soft, about 40 minutes. Drain in a colander over a bowl; reserve 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Discard bay leaf.
Transfer beans to a medium bowl. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, and red-pepper flakes. Stir in vinegar and reserved liquid. Cover to keep warm.
Toss shrimp with remaining 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat. Place shrimp in skillet in a single layer; cook, without turning, until shrimp are pink on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, and cook until shrimp are opaque, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a plate, and loosely cover with foil. Keep skillet on stove with heat off.
Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel. Add oil and remaining garlic to skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add collard greens, a pinch of salt, and 2 tablespoons water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until collard greens are bright green and crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide beans and collard greens among four plates, and top each serving with 5 shrimp.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the collard greens in batches and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the greens in a colander and rinse under cold water to cool; squeeze to remove any excess water.
Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the greens, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Cook, tossing often, until wilted and tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
