You can do "Flautas " too.....

Chicken shredded
Sour cream
Corn Tortillas
Season all

Grab your frying pan... add a cup of oil or EVOO heat up to med high heat... Grab your tortillas and warm up in microwave... once you have cooked and shredded your chicken start to roll your tortillas stuffed with chicken... you can use toothpicks to keep them together... add one rolled up tortilla into the oil bottom down so it wont come undone and roll it around in oil til crisp.... have a plate ready with a napkin to soak excess oil... once cooked.... plate them and add sour cream on top... VOILA!

This recipe for grilled shrimp is so wonderful and easy. It's also very pretty on skewers. Add some pasta, salad, and some wine and it's a very romantic dinner!

The recipe is as follows:

2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, small diced
1/4 C minced fresh Italian Flat Leaf Parsley
1/4 C minced fresh basil
1 tsp. dry mustard
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/4 C good olive oil
1 lemon, juiced

Combine all the ingredients and allow them to marinate for 1 hr or over night. (refrigerate)

Skewer the shrimp. Heat a grill and cook only a couple minutes till done. Don't over cook or shrimp will become chewy and tough.

Note ** I leave the tails on, it's a much prettier presentation this way.

If you'd like the pasta recipe, here it is. (Fettuccini Alfredo)

18 ounces FRESH (don't use dry pasta, it doesn't adhere to the sauce well) fettuccine

2 1/2 C heavy cream
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (must be fresh, do not use lemon juice in a bottle)
12 TBSP unsalted butter
2 C grated parmesan
2 tsp. grated lemon zest
pinch nutmeg (grated or ground)
salt and freshly ground pepper

Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until firm but done. Stir 2 Cups of the cream and lemon juice in a heavy large skillet to blend. Add the butter and cook over medium heat just until the butter melts, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Add the pasta and toss. Add the remaining 1/2 Cup of cream, and parmesan to sauce. Stir till smooth. Add the lemon zest, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Toss the pasta mixture over low heat until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute.

This is sooooo good!!

I would go with the steak and if you don't want to grill shrimp, try this - get some jumbo shrimp and put them in a shallow baking dish. Pour Italian dressing over it, take a lemon and make thin slices to lay over the top of the shrimp, then bake on 350 degrees until the shrimp is done - about 10 minutes but check it. Then get some fresh, hot french bread - serve the steak, shrimp, and a salad, pour some of the dressing you used to cook the shrimp in into some small individual serving bowls and use it to dip the french bread in - YUM!!! Oh, and don't forget the wine

Or - get some flounder, mix together a stuffing of seasoned bread crumbs, shredded swiss cheese, and lump crab meat. Split the flounder open on one side and stuff, stuff, stuff with the mix you just made. Bake on 350 degrees - and this will take a while - about an hour. Make a cream sauce out of heavy cream, more shredded swiss cheese, and lemon zest. When the flounder is done, serve with the sauce over the top along with french bread, salad, and wine - this is YUM, YUM!!!!!!!

Let us know how it turns out

that sounds so good!!!!i will make that this week too!!!
