SEAFOOD STUFFING (AND MAKE-AHEAD STUFFED MUSHROOMS)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, finely crush the crackers and mix in the parsley flakes.
• Set aside.
• Heat the 1 tbs.
• olive oil and 3 tbs.
• butter on a medium to high heat, watching carefully.
• When hot and just starting to bubble, add the celery and carrots.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, for one minute.
• Add the onions and green peppers (and mushrooms if using-- see directions for make-ahead mushrooms below) and cook for another minute.
• Add the garlic and cook for another 1/2 minute to a minute until vegetables are tender.
• Remove from heat and pour entire vegetable and butter mixture into crushed crackers.
• Add the chopped seafood, old bay seasoning, netmeg, sherry, worcestershire sauce, clam juice, and pepper to taste.
• Mix well so the seasonings are evenly distributed.
• Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
• I find the salt in the crackes and other ingredients is enough, but if you prefer you can add some additional salt at this time.
• Makes about 2 to 2 1/2 cups stuffing.
• To prepare Make-Ahead Stuffed Mushrooms: Preheat oven to 425.
• Remove stems from mushrooms and wash the mushrooms.
• (Save stems for another use, or you can chop them finely and add to the stuffing if desired by adding them along with the onions and green pepper to the butter. If doing so, add another 1/2 tbs. butter. However, I think this stuffing is better without them).
• Toss mushrooms with 1 1/2 tsp.
• olive oil and salt and place them in a shallow baking pan in one layer.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes (depending on size of mushrooms) and remove from oven to cool.
• Stuff the mushrooms evenly with the stuffing.
• Place in a shallow baking dish and sprinkle evenly with paprika.
• At this point you can refrigerate the mushrooms for up to 2 days, or freeze them for up to a month; thaw at least partially before cooking.
• When ready to serve, melt the remaining 2 tbs.
• of butter.
• Drizzle evenly over the mushrooms.
• If the mushrooms are room temperature, just broil them until the tops are crispy and they are heated through.
• If they are refrigerated or partially frozen, bake at 350 until heated through, then just run under the broiler for a few seconds to crisp the top, if necessary.
• Serve garnished with lemon wedges.

CAJUN SEAFOOD CORNBREAD STUFFING (FOR PORK, CHICKEN OR FISH)

Steps:

• Bake cornbread and allow to cool, or use leftover. Crumble into fairly fine crumbs to equal 2 cups.
• Clean and de-vien shrimp, chop into course pieces, 1/2 inch. Save shells.
• In a small sauce pan bring chicken broth to simmer, add shrimp shells and simmer for 20 minutes. Set aside and add the juice from the canned clams.
• Saute onion and celery in butter until tender.
• Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs and cornbread crumbs, salt, pepper, sage, garlic powder and poultry seasoning, mix well.
• Strain broth into crumb mixture with a fine sieve or colender, discard shells, and give a quick stir. Add soup and eggs and stir well.
• Fold in shrimp and clams.
• Now, here is the important part, you want a really moist mixture that is not too moist. You may have to add broth or water (I used a tad bit of beer he he) You want to be able to use a big soup spoon, not a ladle but one of those huge spoons, scoop up some of the dressing and if a little runs off the sides but still remains heeped up on the spoon, perfect. If nothing runs off the sides of the spoon and you picked up a big ball of stuffing it is too thick. You need to add broth, water, or in my case beer until it forms a rounded peek when scooped instead of a ball.
• Now, your stuffing is ready to cook, boy this is good. Take you a good cut of porkchop, fish, or chicken breast, place each serving on a piece of greased foil big enough to fold the sides of the foil up high enough to hold the stuffing, place the servings on cookie sheet and fill it up with the stuffing. Oh man, this just keeps getting better.
• Depending on how big your pieces of meat are and how much stuffing you put on them will determine on how long you need to cook them. You need to use a meat thermometer to test the doneness. When done, allow to cool 5 minutes, fold back foil and use a spatula to remove onto plate.
• I cook mine at 375 F for about an hour. I use thick cuts and lots of stuffing. This is good stuff man!
• I even make these ahead and freeze them, just thaw and cook.
• Servings, prep and cooking times are estimated as best as I can.
