Lobster Pizza

Description

This is a recipe for lobster pizza that is similar to the kind you might find on the appetizer menu at Red Lobster. The end result is not exactly the same but we find it’s almost better than the “real” thing.

Ingredients

1 flour tortilla (per pizza)

Roasted Garlic Butter (either store bought- Land O’ Lakes, or homemade)

2 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese

4 oz. drained roma tomatoes (approx. 2-3 tomatoes) diced 3/8"

2 tbsp. fresh basil cut in 1/8" julienne strips

2 oz. lobster meat cut in 1/2" - 3/4" chunks (imitation works well, as does crab meat)

1/2 cup Italian six-cheese blend

Directions

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly brush entire top side of tortilla with garlic butter. Sprinkle two tablespoons Parmesan cheese over the garlic butter. After draining the diced tomatoes, sprinkle evenly over Parmesan cheese. To julienne the basil, wash it and shake off excess water. Pick off leaves and stack on top of one another. Using a chef’s knife, cut into 1/8" strips. Do not chop. Sprinkle evenly over the diced tomatoes. Make sure lobster meat is cut into 1/2" - 3/4" chunks. Portion lobster meat, drain it and then sprinkle it evenly over the tomatoes. Sprinkle the Italian six-cheese blend evenly over the diced tomatoes. Refrigerate until ready to cook. Brush a pizza pan lightly with vegetable oil and sprinkle lightly with ground black pepper and kosher salt. When oven is ready, place pizza on pan and cook approximately five to eight minutes. Remove from pan and cut into eight wedges. Squeeze fresh lemon over pizza for extra flavor and serve. Tip: Be sure you drain the tomatoes and the lobster meat before sprinkling them over the pizza shell. Otherwise your pizza will turn out soggy.

Roasted Garlic Butter

Ingredients

1 bulb of garlic

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1/4 lb butter

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut about a half inch off the top of the garlic bulb. Place the bulb in a small baking dish. Drizzle the top with the olive oil. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for one hour. Set the butter out to soften as you put the garlic in the oven. When the garlic is done, let it cool enough to handle. You should be able to just squeeze the cloves out of the husk. Put the softened butter and the garlic cloves in a mixing bowl and mix together until thoroughly integrated. To store, scrape the mixture onto a piece of parchment or wax paper, roll into a fat, sausage shaped log and the twist the ends shut.

Dr. Pepper Pork Chops

Description

Today I am sharing my recipe for Dr. Pepper pork chops, which is a quck and easy meal that even Russ will eat (he somewhat dislikes Dr. Pepper!). We had them tonight for dinner, at Russ’s request, and included rice as our side, and some garlic roasted broccoli.

Ingredients

4 average-sized Pork Chops

2/3 cup Dr. Pepper

2/3 cup Ketchup

1 teaspoon dried Oregano

1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce

Directions

Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the pork chops in a baking pan or glass casserole dish large enough so the sides of the chops are not touching. In a small mixing bowl whisk together the Dr. Pepper, ketchup, oregano and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the chops. Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the desired tenderness. Serve with a small amount of the juices over the meat. Serves 4.

Cajun Corn and Bacon Maque Choux

Description

Tomorrow is Fat Tuesday, which means that Mardi Gras is coming to a close. Recently we had the opportunity to enjoy a dinner with Matt, KD9BWJ, at Zydeco’s in Mooresville, Indiana, which is co-owned by Carter “Hutch” Hutchinson, K9KJN, who also cooks a lot of the wonderful food. Hutch joined us for Episode #131 back in June of 2014. While I am positive he is going to cringe at my recipe this week, we love this dish.

Ingredients

4 cups frozen corn, defrosted (or 6 ears corn, husked and cleaned)

1/4 cup milk

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 large onion, thinly sliced

1 cup green bell pepper, chopped

1 large fresh tomato, chopped (or use one 14oz can diced tomatoes, drained)

Salt to taste

Cayenne pepper

1/4 cup chopped green onions

8 strips crisply cooked bacon, crumbled (or 1/2 cup real bacon bits)

Directions

Place corn in a medium bowl (If using fresh corn, cut corn off the cobs by thinly slicing across the tops of the kernels; place in a medium bowl. Cut across the kernels again to release milk from the corn), and use a spoon to smash the kernals a bit to get them to release the milk contained within, once you are finished with the corn, add milk to the bowl of corn. Set aside. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and green pepper, cook until onion is transparent, about 5 to 8 minutes. Combine the corn and milk mixture with the tomatoes and add to the onion mixture. Reduce heat to medium low and cook 20 minutes longer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Do not boil. Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Lower heat, cover skillet and cook 5 to 10 minutes longer. Stir in green onions and bacon. Remove from heat and serve.

Grünkernsuppe (Traditional German Spelt Soup)

Description

On Saturday, Russ and I traveled to Kansas City to do some shopping at IKEA, visit Weston Brewing in Weston, Missouri (we’re enjoying beverages from there at this very moment), and visit the “Steamboat Arabia” museum. At the end of our day we enjoyed a lovely meal at Grünauer restaurant in a Frisco freight building behind beautiful Union Station. Because we dined there during Kansas City’s Restaurant Week we had a 3 course meal to enjoy. This was the dish that Russ chose for his first course. The rest of the meal was average until we got to the Salted Caramel Pot de Creme we had for dessert. While it is not something we’ve made at home before, it WILL be something we do in the very near future. I love soup in the winter, especially with Pot de Creme for dessert.

Ingredients

¼ cup Butter

1 small Onion, minced

1 large Carrot, minced

6 fresh Mushrooms, minced

6 oz. Spelt berries, crushed

4 cups Broth (your choice of vegetable, chicken or beef)

¼ cup “Real Bacon Bits” (or a few pieces fried then crumbled) – optional (or cooked and diced chicken, cooked sausage… the choices are endless!)

½ cup Cream

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Over medium heat, sauté vegetables in the butter until beginning to get soft. Add crushed spelt berries to the vegetable mixture and saute for a few moments to release flavor. Do not burn the berries. If the berries begin to brown, remove from heat immediately. Add broth and meat to the vegetable/berry medley and simmer over low heat for approximately 2 hours. Remove from heat. Garnish each bowl with salt, pepper and a drizzle of cream over the top of the soup. You will stir the cream in just before you eat it. This recipe will make 4-6 servings.

Notes

Spelt berries (NOT flour) can be purchased at your local natural food store. Or you can get it online or locally through akin.com. Amazon carries it as well. Look for “Bob’s Red Mill Spelt Berries." This soup is very forgiving regarding the ingredients. Leave meat out, leave vegetables out, add different (or more) meat, add different (or more) veggies; the choice is yours. As the recipe is written, it is a brothy soup similar to chicken noodle soup in taste and consistency. If you’d like a thicker soup, you can puree’ everything together.

Crockpot Chicken and Dumplings

Description

In the winter, I am a huge fan of soups… especially ones that can be done in the crockpot. So, this week I share with you my recipe for Chicken and Dumplings, done in the crockpot (which Russ hates). It’s great to come home to this, ready after work!

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

2 tablespoons butter

1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup

1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup

1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

1/2 teaspoon Poultry Seasoning

1 teaspoon Onion Powder

Salt

Pepper

1 onion, finely diced

1-2 cans Chicken Broth

2 (10 ounce) packages refrigerated biscuit dough, torn into pieces

Directions

Place the chicken, butter, soup, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, onion powder, salt, pepper and onion in a slow cooker, and fill with enough chicken broth to cover. Cover and cook for 6 hours on high. About 2 hours before serving (4 hours into the cooking time), remove the chicken and shred. Put back into slow cooker and place the torn biscuit dough in the slow cooker and “stir” the dough into the liquid. Cook until the dough is no longer raw in the center (approximately 6 hours).
