SHRIMP AND CHANTERELLES IN WHITE WINE CREAM SAUCE
This sauce was a combination of a recipe we found in La Vera Cucina Italiana by Donaldo Soviero and DH's creativity. We used med-lge shrimp, about 41-50 size. We had a lovely crop of Chanterelles in the woods and DH made fresh pasta using the recipe on the back of King Arthur's Perfect Pasta Blend. There is a copycat version of this pasta blend posted here, Recipe #227629. This is a fantastic dinner to share with good friends. All you need is a green salad with a simple vinaigrette and some nice Chianti, light some candles and get ready to enjoy dinner!

SHRIMP WITH CHANTERELLES
I take my lunch to work as often as possible - mainly because I'm dieting. The cafe here is great - seriously great! But fattening most of the time. Today's quickie lunch I accomplished within 30 minutes, and it was awesome! So, I decided to post it. I made just one serving, but this recipe is expanded to serve 6 to 8.

Steps:
- 1. In a skillet: Melt the butter with the garlic, thyme, and chives.
- 2. Add the wine. Cook about a minute or two to eliminate the alcohol.
- 3. Add the shrimp and chanterelles, and cook until the shrimp turn pink. About 5 minutes or less. Don't overcook the shrimp.
- 4. Sprinkle with a few drops of truffle oil before serving.
- 5. ALTERNATIVELY while you're getting ready for work (this is what I actually did this morning). Melt the butter with the garlic, thyme, chives and wine in the microwave for 1 minute. Put everything into an oven safe dish. Cover tightly and shake to coat. Turn the oven on to 375. (I used a little toaster oven, but just made a single serving) It's done in 10-15 minutes - about the time it takes to shower.
- 6. I steamed some green beans and grabbed a pre-made serving of brown jasmine rice from the freezer to go along with this. Then put it in a container, sprinkled the truffle oil and headed out the door. If I were to serve this for dinner, I'd serve it over some fragrant rice with green beans, which go well with the chanterelles.
