Creole-Style Shrimp and Sausage Gumbo

It’s been a while since I’ve had homemade cajun style shrimp creole. I absolutely love the stuff. I swear It’s amazing, especially when it’s served with hot steamed rice and cornbread…. LAWD HAVE MERCY!! It’s almost like a shrimp gumbo, but without the roux. It is truly one of my favorite southern dishes. It must be some of your favorite dishes as well, because I’ve been getting a TON of request for it. So in this post, I’m going to show & tell you how I make my homemade Shrimp & Sausage Creole.

My version of shrimp & sausage creole is simple. I don’t use any fancy ingredients. I just use the basic stuff. The only ” fancy” thing about this recipe are the tomatoes that I use. I like to use Heavenly Villagio Marzano Tomatoes, as well as Zima tomatoes. Why? because I LOVE the sweetness of the tomatoes… If you have a different tomato that you’d like to use feel free to use it.

Ingredients:

2 cans (14 oz (420 ml) each) stewed tomatoes
1/4 pound (120 g) reduced-fat smoked sausage, sliced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 pound (240 g) fresh sliced okra
3/4 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
salt, to taste
3 cups (750 ml) cooked rice, warm

    In 6-quart (6 l) slow cooker, combine all ingredients, except okra, shrimp, salt, and rice. Mix well.
  • Step 2
    Close cooker and cook on low-heat setting for 6-7 hours, adding okra during last 30 minutes and shrimp during last 10 minutes.

Baked Salmon in Foil with Asparagus

This healthy baked salmon is the best way to feed a crowd. There’s no skillet cooking at all—everything is oven-baked in foil, making prep and cleanup a breeze. We believe it might just be the best baked salmon recipe…ever.
How much salmon should I buy?
Although it looks massive, you’re still buying a fillet; you won’t be slicing it yourself, but you may have to ask the fishmonger to do it. If you think people will be hungry, aim for about ½ pound per person, keeping in mind that salmon can be surprisingly filling. Also remember that how big the meat is will affect the baking time. For a 3-pound fillet, it’ll take around 25 minutes.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound (500 g) fingerling potatoes, halved (or Yukon golds or halved white/red baby potatoes)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper, divided
  • 4 (6 oz | 170 g) skinless salmon fillets
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic, divided
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
  • 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 3 bunches asparagus, (18 spears, woody ends removed)
  • 2 tablespoons dry white wine (substitute with 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth)
  • 1 lemon sliced to garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Heat oven to 400°F | 200°C. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss together potatoes with the oil, 1/2 tablespoon of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread out in an even layer and roast for 15 minutes until they’re just starting to soften and brown.
  2. Push potatoes to one side of the sheet pan and arrange salmon down the centre. Rub salmon evenly with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the minced garlic and 2 tablespoons of parsley. Add the asparagus to the other side of the pan.
  3. Combine 1/4 cup of lemon juice and 1/4 cup of the melted butter together and pour the mixture over the salmon and asparagus. Season everything with the remaining salt and pepper.
  4. Return to oven and continue baking until the potatoes are golden and fork-tender and the salmon is opaque throughout, (about 10 minutes). Optional: broil in the last 2 minutes for charred edges.
  5. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining butter, garlic and lemon juice with the wine (or chicken stock). Serve with the salmon, veggies and lemon slices!

Crab Stuffed Mushrooms

Crab stuffed mushrooms are a culinary delight, and with the festive season approaching, there’s no better time to impress your guests with these delectable appetizers. Whether you’re hosting a holiday gathering or simply looking for a satisfying main course, this quick and creamy recipe is the perfect choice. Let’s dive into the world of flavors and learn how to make these tantalizing Crab Stuffed Mushrooms.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Yield: 12 stuffed mushrooms

Ingredients:

  • 12 medium button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms, cleaned with stems removed and discarded
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 box (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs or panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2–3 tablespoons fresh chopped Italian parsley
  • 1 cup cooked shelled crab, finely chopped (such as King Crab)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Lightly spray the mushrooms with olive oil and arrange them cap side down on a baking sheet or baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, fresh bread crumbs, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, green onions, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, chopped Italian parsley, and finely chopped crab meat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Scoop approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into each mushroom.

Bake the stuffed mushrooms for 20 minutes. In the final minute of cooking, turn on the broiler to lightly brown the tops. Keep a close eye on them, as broilers can be unpredictable.

Recipe Notes and Tips:

  • To prevent the mushrooms from releasing excess moisture when you bite into them, you can precook them for about 2-3 minutes, turning them upside down on a rack to allow drainage.
  • For a bit of extra kick, consider adding 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper.
  • If you prefer, you can use cremini mushrooms (also known as baby bella mushrooms) instead of white button mushrooms.
  • Smaller mushrooms are a great choice for parties, as they stretch the recipe further. Just reduce the cooking time slightly for the smaller mushrooms.
  • Don’t discard the mushroom stems. Chop them finely and sauté them with a bit of olive oil or butter and garlic in a skillet over medium heat before adding them to the mixture.

Feel free to experiment with different spices and herbs, such as paprika, thyme leaves, chopped chives, fresh parsley, dried oregano, snipped rosemary, or Old Bay seasoning.

You can also add sautéed chopped spinach or chopped artichokes to the filling for a twist.

Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is recommended for its superior flavor compared to the canned variety.

Fresh bread crumbs work wonders in this recipe, but you can crush croutons in a bag or food processor as an alternative.

Conclusion:

These mouthwatering Crab Stuffed Mushrooms are an ideal appetizer for your next gathering or even a delightful main course. With their irresistible combination of fresh crab, cream cheese, and a medley of seasonings, they are sure to leave your guests raving. So, whether you’re hosting a holiday feast or a casual get-together, give this recipe a try and watch the magic unfold in your kitchen. Enjoy the flavors and the smiles that follow!
