CAJUN SEAFOOD AU GRATIN
This recipe comes from Alex Patout's Seafood Kitchen. I got it off of their website and it is WONDERFUL. This is easy to prepare, only takes a few minutes, and so rich and delicious. I make this often for company and it is one of my son's favorite foods. You may eat this over rice, pasta, or my preference, with a loaf of crusty bread. I have also doubled this for a crowd - works well, but it does make a lot when you do this. This can be served as an appetizer or a main dish. ***reminds me of Papadeaux's Blackened Seafood Fondue***

Steps:
- Pour the cream into a large heavy skillet or saucepan and place over medium-high heat.
- The cream will rise before it begins to boil; just stir it to keep it from overflowing.
- Once it begins to simmer, add the herbs, salt, peppers, green onions, and parsley, and continue to let simmer until it becomes thick, 7-8 minutes.
- Stir in the shrimp and let cook 3-4 minutes, then add the crawfish.
- Mix well and let cook 2-3 minutes.
- Gently fold in the crab meat (you paid a premium price for it, so don't destroy those precious lumps).
- Let cook 2-3 minutes more, then add the 1-1/2 cups cheese and stir gently until it has melted.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Pour the hot seafood mixture into a large ovenproof dish or individual ramekins.
- Sprinkle the top with the Parmesan cheese and glaze under the broiler.
- Serve immediately.
- *******Additional Notes:.
- This dish should really be prepared fresh.
- It doesn't take long to make, and your guests or family will enjoy watching you prepare it.
- You don't have to use all three kinds of seafood, either.
- Try it with just one or two of them, increasing the amounts, or substitute other kinds of seafood that are readily available.

COMPANY SHRIMP-AND-CRAB CAKES
The addition of shrimp gives crab cakes a new flavor. Using panko instead of flour makes the prep easier, plus the cakes stay together without tasting doughy. I love these crab cakes served with mango salsa! -Regina Reynolds, Struthers, Ohio
