CREOLE CAESAR SALAD WITH CORN BREAD CROUTONS



Creole Caesar Salad With Corn Bread Croutons image

My love for okra began as a child and continues to border on just this side of insanity. I love okra. As a young boy, I would smuggle a brown bag full of fried okra into the movies as my better-than-popcorn snack. On Sunday nights, I was famous for making fried okra and creamed corn sandwiches with fresh slices of tomato and loads of Duke's mayonnaise. Years later, while studying in Italy, I realized that Italians also took leftover vegetables and made sandwiches. All you need are cold vegetables, bread, and mayo. The Caesar salad treatment makes this lighter than a sandwich, although if you want to give it more heft, you can add shrimp, chicken, or duck.

2½ cups cubed corn bread, toasted
½ cup sliced grape tomatoes
½ cup sliced seedless cucumber
¼ cup sliced red onion
Creole Caesar Dressing (recipe follows)
For the Creole Caesar dressing:
⅔ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Creole Shrimp Filling
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
2 tablespoons flour
One 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 cup chicken broth
1 bay leaf
8 ounces bay shrimp
Topping
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter at room temperature
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
2 eggs at room temperature
1/4 cup peeled and diced mild green chiles, fresh or canned (drained)
1/2 cup corn kernels
1/2 cup canned cream-style corn
2 tablespoons finely chopped red bell pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • To prepare the filling, melt the butter in a large sauté pan or skillet over high heat. Add the onion, celery, and green bell peppers. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and Creole seasoning, and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir constantly, about 2 minutes, until slightly thickened. Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, chicken broth, and bay leaf. Stir and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pan with a lid, and cook for 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and heat through, about 2 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and pour the filling into an 8-by-8-inch square or round baking dish. Set aside in a warm area, while preparing the topping.
  • To prepare the topping, preheat the oven to 375°F. Put the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Whip on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Incorporate the eggs one at a time and mix until smooth. Add the green chiles, creamed corn, red and green bell peppers, the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Mix on low speed until the mixture forms a soft batter.
  • Carefully dollop the corn bread batter over the filling. Using an offset metal spatula, spread the batter smoothly across the top of the casserole, forming a thin layer. Place the baking dish on a baking sheet in the center of the oven. Bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven to a cooling rack. Cut through the corn bread with a small knife. Scoop 6 to 8 generous portions of the filling and the corn bread into large soup bowls or onto plates.

CREOLE CORN CASSEROLE



Creole Corn Casserole image

I am confident you, your family and your guests will find this to be one of the best tasting and the the most easily prepared vegetable side-dishes to be found. It is an old Corn Souffle recipe that I bumped up a little by turning it into a Creole-Cajun type casserole. I started taking this to a monthly covered-dish dinner and there was never any left-overs to bring home, so I started doubling the recipe and I got the same results -- still no left-overs. And it is really better after it has been around for a couple of days. Guess I will have to start tripling the recipe, making one large casserole for the dinner and a smaller one to leave at home. I am under strict orders from the dinner group that I am to bring nothing but this dish. This suits me fine for it is so easy to prepare and I get a big kick from seeing my empty dish after the dinner.

EASY CORN CREOLE image

The original recipe for this dish came from the cookbook OLD FARMERS ALMANEC EVERYDAY COOKBOOK. I used coconut oil instead of vegetable or canola oil, and I added a bit of Cajun spice to add a bit more flavor without adding calories. You can omit the cheese all together if you want to eliminate even more calories. I chose to...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cajun spice
1 c chopped yellow onions
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
2 c diced tomatoes (i used canned tomatoes drained)
1 tsp sugar
2 c corn (fresh or frozen)
2 Tbsp real bacon bits (i used hormel)
2/3 c shredded cheddar cheese (original used 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • 1. This is the book where the original recipe was found. A great book USING easy to find everyday ingredients. I used fresh corn off the cobb if you use frozen the prep time will be less.
  • 2. Chop onions and bell pepper and set aside till needed.
  • 3. Remove corn from cob with a sharp knife if using fresh. Make it easier to remove by placing a soup/cereal bowl upside down in a larger bowl, then rest the cob on the smaller bowl, and cut along the sides of the corn to remove kernels.
  • 4. Add the coconut oil to a large skillet, then heat over medium high heat. Add the onions and chopped peppers and cook for 5-7 minutes till transparent.
  • 5. Then add the drained diced tomatoes and stir to blend together, add the spices, add salt if desired.
  • 6. Add the corn and continue to cook over medium high heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  • 7. These are the main ingredients used in this recipe. Adding the 2 Tbs of REAL Bacon bits ONLY ADDED 50 CALORIES TO THE entire dish, & it packs a lot of flavor. Just 149 calories for one serving.
  • 8. When the vegetables are tender after about 5 to 7 minutes, add the real bacon bits, stir, then top mixture with shredded cheddar cheese. TURN OFF HEAT. Then cover skillet with lid to allow cheese to melt.
  • 9. Serve immediately while still hot.
