Cajun Chicken and Shrimp Alfredo

by

 

Cajun Chicken and Shrimp Alfredo

INGREDIENTS : 

  • 8 ounces uncooked fettuccine.
  • 2 chicken breasts cut into 1″ pieces.
  • 1/2 pound shrimp (I used 31/40 size) thawed & peeled.
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
  • 1/2 tablespoon + 1/2 tablespoon Cajun seasoning (use a low or no salt variety).
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  • 2 tablespoons butter.
  • 1 cup heavy/whipping cream.
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (I used 1/2 block of Philly).
  • 2 cloves garlic minced.
  • 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese.
  • Salt & pepper to taste.

DIRECTIONS : 

STEP 1.

Take the cream cheese out of the refrigerator more than 30 minutes before the recipe starts (or put it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds).

STEP 2.

Bring a saucepan of salted pasta to the boil with water and cook al dente according to the instructions on the packet.

STEP 3.

When the shrimp are frozen, thaw them under cold running water.

STEP 4.

Remove them (leave the tails if you want).

STEP 5.

Pat the prawns dry.

STEP 6.

Cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces.

STEP 7.

Sprinkle the shrimp and chicken with garlic powder and 1/2 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.

STEP 8.

Place the oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat and when the pan is hot cook the prawns for about 3 minutes (turn once), then transfer them to a plate.

STEP 9.

Place the chicken in a saucepan and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, or until tender, stirring occasionally (let it brown a little).

STEP 10.

Transfer it to the same plate as the shrimp.

STEP 11.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter, cream, cream cheese, garlic, and the remaining half tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.

STEP 12.

Put the pan back on the stove (reduce the heat to medium) and stir for a few minutes until the cream cheese dissolves in the sauce.

STEP 13.

Let the sauce bubble gently for 2-3 minutes or until it has thickened.

STEP 14.

Stir in the parmesan, then add the prawns and chicken to the pan.

STEP 15.

Let it warm up for a few minutes.

STEP 16.

If necessary, season with salt and pepper.

STEP 17.

I like to add hot water for the pasta (tablespoon or two) to the pan before draining the fettuccine to thin out the sauce a bit (optional).

STEP 18.

Mix the dried pasta with the sauce and serve immediately.

STEP 19.

I like to add some grated parmesan and chopped parsley.

STEP 20.

Lemon juice is delicious too!

Enjoy!!

Catfish Fried

by



10 facts about seafood :

  1. Fish should always be cooked at a low to medium temperature. When you do this, you are going to ensure that all of the moisture that the fish has is preserved is still there upon consumption. Never cook fish at a temperature more than 350 degrees. At the kind of heat, you’re risking losing a ton of flavor.
  2. You can tell if a piece of fish is fresh by doing your own little test. Get a pot of cold water and put the piece of fish in the water. If the fish floats, it means that it has been caught pretty recently. If the fish sinks, it may not be as fresh as you would like for it to be.
  3. The best way to thaw fish is by using milk. Take frozen fish and place it in milk to allow it to give it a great color and give you a great flavor.
  4. Having trouble getting oysters out of their shell? Try to get some club soda and let the oysters soak in it for a few minutes. It can help with the process of getting them out of their shells.
  5. Fish are full of Omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon, tuna, trout and herring are all fish with high levels of Omega-3. This is considered the good fat and can actually be very healthy to your heart.
  6. Pregnant women should not eat fish of any type more than twice in any given week. The reason for this is that fish can be contaminated with different types of bacteria as well as mercury that can be harmful to the unborn child.
  7. Comparing the protein content of sardines against a steak is pretty impressive. Eating 100 grams of sardines is going to give you more protein than eating a steak of the same weight.
  8. Fish can counter your sodium intake. When you consume a lot of fish, you can actually reduce some of the negative impact that your body is going to get from consuming a great deal of sodium.
  9. Halibut and tuna are the safest fish to eat in terms of bacteria. Sole is also typically seen as a very safe fish to eat.
  10. Shellfish have the ability to filter through roughly 15 to 20 gallons of water every single day.  Shellfish survive by filtering this water out.

1 lb catfish(4-6 fillets)

1 cup milk
