The Dream Recipe
We talk about dreaming of the perfect job or relationship but what about the perfect meal?
Yes, I have the perfect summer vacation recipe.
You like seafood? Lobster? Shrimp? Buttah?
Here we go;
Get some frozen, cooked lobster claws and some cooked shrimp(size matters)
Into a pot add;
Two tablespoons Olive oil (evoo)
A tablespoon of garlic (two cloves)
A rough cut stalk of celery
A rough cut Cubana Pepper (with or without seeds and husks depending on your heat preference)
2 cloves of a shallot
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup white cooking wine (or what have you)
1/2 cup of water
Cover and bring to a boil
Add one cut up Johnsonville New Orleans style sausage (brot)(for one person)
Bring to a boil ( ya' wanna see steam)
Add the lobster claws (3 for one person)
Add one tblsp of butter
Bring to a steaming boil (about 4 minutes if that)
Add the shrimp (four for one person)
Add 1/2 a squeezed lemon
Add about a half cup, no more, of Minute Rice
Replace the lid after each step and let this go about three minutes
Finish with a teaspoon of chopped cilantro, pepper and tablespoon of parsley chopped
Serve in a deep dish with the the broth and cold, cold Chardonnay or beer.
If you are able to make this outside and eat it outside or on a boat you will have tasted heaven.
The whole deal takes about a half hour from cooking to serving. Double all the ingredients per guest.
