Camarones a la plancha - Shrimp on the griddle

Camarones a la plancha - Shrimp on the griddle by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious mexican shrimp dish that you'll find served in the lovely seaside restaurants along both of Mexico's coast. The wonderful smells of the shrimp, garlic, and onion will fill your house and make everyone's mouths water. I cooked these tonight for Cinco de Mayo and both we and our kids absolutely loved them. I left…

Korean Nakji Bokkeum (Spicy Octopus Stir Fry)

Korean Nakji Bokkeum (Spicy Octopus Stir Fry) by jason kim

We finally got to enjoy a spicy seafood dish when we found some frozen octopus at the local Asian market. Instead of using our usual Korean store, which is handicapped with bad produce, limited ingredients, and overpricing, we have been finding more and more Korean items like this for our dishes.....full story and recipe at…

Cioppino

Cioppino by John Elder

This 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 Noodles

Thai Shrimp Curry Over Rice Noodles by Bob Vincent

This 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…

Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Sauce

Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Sauce by Nancy Miyasaki

This was a real treat. It reminded me of delicious passed appetizer I had at a wedding reception a few years ago. The spicy sauce (not too hot) combines wonderfully with the slightly sweet coconut shrimp. Could be served equally well as an appetizer or entree.

Shrimp Creole

Shrimp Creole by John Spottiswood

This 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.

Green Curry Mussel & Sausage Stew

Green Curry Mussel & Sausage Stew by Bob Vincent

This is an easy dish to prepare. It could be served over pasta as well by thickening the sauce with a cornstarch slurry a bit. I used frozen New Zealand green lip mussels. If you can find good fresh mussels by all means use them as they would be better. I used a green curry paste. My wife does not like things too hot so I opted…

Crab & Avocado BLTs On Sourdough

Crab & Avocado BLTs On Sourdough by Bob Vincent

This 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…

Scallops and Grits

Scallops and Grits by Carolinaheartstrings

When I moved to the South nearly 20 years ago it did not take me long to discover the Southern favorite shrimp and grits. Such a delicious rich satisfying dish. I decided that I would try my hand at making the dish my own and using my favorite seafood, scallops. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!

Grilled Dungeness Crabs with Kicked up Seasoned Butter

Grilled Dungeness Crabs with Kicked up Seasoned Butter by Kevin Greggans

Recipe of Emeril Lagasse, 2002 – modified by Kevin Greggans There is nothing like fresh Dungeness crab when the season opens in the San Francisco Bay area! I modified this recipe and kicked it up another notch! Not so much for spicy seasonings, but more of a savory etouffee flavor. When you combine this with the smoked flavor…

Baked Stuffed Clams

Baked Stuffed Clams by B Innes

These make a great appetizer, or serving a couple they make a nice dinner, and occasionally to make them truly elegant I top them with Hollandaise sauce for a decadent treat. You can get fresh clams and open them yourself and save the shells to reuse, or use large scallop shells which are easier to find, or even place in ramekins,…
