Cilantro ShrimpThis is a simple and absolutely delicious stir-fry shrimp dish. I've been looking for something easy and tasty like this. I have a new staple! I used a red chile sauce that we had on hand instead of the sambal oelek, and I added it selectively after stir frying to my husbands and my plates, but not to the kids plates. It was… |

Flavorful Grilled ShrimpThis is a classic grilled shrimp recipe originally from Craig Clairborne's NYT cookbook, then adapted by Ina Garten, and then finally perfected by me. :-) Seriously, this is a wonderful staple to have in your pantry of recipes. You can serve this over pasta (which we did the other night), as an appetizer with a variety of dipping… |

Shrimp CreoleThis isn't all that fancy or exotic, but it's a wonderfully rich and fully flavored. If you want greater authenticity, you can substitute butter where I have used olive oil. I love butter, but try to control it for health reasons. It's delicious as I have made it, so no need to add the extra butter in my opinion. |

Spaghetti with Seafood in Tomato and Herb sauceA colleague of mine brought in some fresh oregano, marjoram, and Italian parsley from his garden, so I looked for a fresh herb pasta recipe. I changed the herbs up a bit to use what I had, substituted prawns for mussels, and ended up with a delicious pasta. As long as you get the basics of this sauce right, you can mess around with… |

Scallops in Scallion NestsThis is an attractive, flavorful dish, ideal as the first course for an elegant dinner. The scallions, which are cooked briefly in boiling water and served with a mustard sauce, are fantastic. I adapted this recipe from Jacques Pepin. While I loved the presentation, and everyone at our dinner party seemed to enjoy it, I wasn't… |

Crab & Avocado BLTs On SourdoughThis is a different take on standard BLT sandwiches. The addition of lump crab and avocado make for a delicious sandwich. This would be great with Dungeness crab when in season fresh. I served the sandwiches with seedless red grapes and stone fruit. For a wine I chose a Viansa 2013 Sonoma Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Chilled it… |

CioppinoThis is the NY version of a San Franciscan Italian seafood stew. They focus on crabs while I focus on a nice variety of seafood. It’s quick to cook once the seafood is prepped and guaranteed to please every seafood lover. You can make the sauce white or red and once in a while I make it pink with just lobster tails, shrimp and… |

Thai Shrimp Curry Over Rice NoodlesThis is adapted from a recipe in Bon Appetit in 2005. I added several ingredients that were not in the original including sugar snap peas, bean sprouts, tomatoes and spinach. The original was not served over rice noodles; rather as a soup. Chopped peanuts would add some crunch as a garnish but I didn't have any. Like many Thai… |

Mussels ManhattanA classic Manhattan is a fine drink, and our home bar is always well-stocked with bourbon, sweet vermouth, and bitters during the winter months (all other months, too). I adapted this recipe from executive chef Larry Tressler of Holland House Bar and Refuge in Nashville. The mussels are simmered in bourbon, sweet vermouth and… |
