Where on earth did the time go?? It is December, really, December?? Yowza!
Recently i’ve been spending a bit of time on business in a corporate apartment. It is DAMN hard to “cook” or plan recipes when your staples, standards, and your “stuff” isn’t with you!!
I did buy a camping spice container set so i could bring some of home with me… Alas i was still missing something every time i went to cook.
I went to Target and got a Crock pot! (i have plans for this bad boy!)
While i was there, i found some great deals on mahi mahi fillets and some shrimp!
Hello individual sealed fillets, and i learned to “defrost” you can put it in a bowl of water for half an hour. Hello easy and amazing!
I also got a bag-o-shrimp and used my fancy basil lemon spices on it!
Ingredients:
Shrimp – in any form you wish to cook it – i do pre-cooked, no tail – yes, folks – that is the laziest!
Olive Oil
Spice mixture – today is the basil lemon
Red Pepper Flakes – to taste!
Preparation:
Squish shrimp – place shrimp in 1 layer on paper towels, put a paper towel on top – place a cutting board on top – and then top with something heavy – leave for 30-60minutes.
Put shrimp into a zip lock
Pour olive oil and spices in bag – shake to cover.
Heat pan, dump shrimp in, cook till desired amount of doneness!
Easy, quick and yummy!
Another option was the mahi mahi – i rubbed it with olive oil, dusted with my basil lemon spices and seared it up in the frying pan with pam! Yummy!
Can’t wait to get home!
