Best Sheilas Batter For Clams Shrimp Scallops Onion Rings Recipes

SHEILA'S BATTER FOR CLAMS, SHRIMP, SCALLOPS, ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Add salt and pepper to flour and baking powder.
• Mix egg and milk together.
• Combine all, and mix well.
• Dip seafood in batter, and then deep fry in hot oil, at 350, until seafood is no longer opague color in the middle, and/or batter is a golden brown, approximately 3-5 minutes.
• Drain on paper towels, and serve hot.

CLAMS AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat a large soup pot with extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and brown for 2 minutes; add the potatoes, onions, celery, bay, thyme, and pepper and let the veggies soften up 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Next add the garlic and the corn and stir to combine.
• Add the tomatoes and stock to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Cook for 8 minutes.
• Pat shrimp dry and toss with a rounded tablespoon of seafood seasoning. Add the shrimp and clams and replace the cover.
• Cook until shrimp are pink and firm and the clams have opened up, 7 minutes. (During the cooking time I tend to leave the temperature on medium high so that the soup continues at a rapid boil.).

SHRIMP AND CLAMS IN TOMATO SAUCE WITH SHELL PASTA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat.
• Add in onion, garlic, red pepper flakes and oregano; saute for about 3 minutes.
• Add in the chopped tomatoes with juice, clam juice (add in the clams later) and about 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley and anchovy paste; stir to combine, then cook covered about 20 minutes.
• Uncover and simmer for another 25-30 minutes, over medium-low heat stirring occasionally until the sauce has thickened (simmer uncovered).
• Add in the reserved clams and uncooked shrimp; simmer until the shrimp is just cooked through (about 3 minutes).
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Add in cooked pasta; toss to combine and warm.
• Transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle with more chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese.

SHRIMP OR SCALLOPS IN GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat butter over medium high heat.
• When butter begins to foam, add the garlic paste and shallot and saute for a minute or two, to soften a bit.
• Add the seafood of your choice: For the shrimp, saute for 2-3 minutes or until shrimp turn pink.
• For the scallops, saute 3-5 minutes, or until scallops turn opaque.
• Once the seafood is cooked through, remove to a plate and cover.
• Add the sherry to the melted butter and warm through for about a minute or two.
• Pour sauce over seafood, top with parsley, and serve.
