Best Restaurant Seafood Dishes-at Home!
Dining out is fun… but… what if I told you that your favorite casual restaurant menu items are super easy to make at home? You’ll likely say, “Patterson, you’re a trained chef of course it’s easy for YOU to say that”! No, no, no my friends! The restaurants WANT you to think that way so you’ll keep coming back. But the secrets out, and here are 3 (not so top secret) homemade seafood dish recipes from Red Lobster, Joe’s Crab Shack and Bonefish Grill.
Red Lobster’s Wood Grilled Shrimp Skewers
Ingredients
- 2 lbs. Cameron’s Seafood Fresh Shrimp peeled
- 4 garlic cloves peeled and minced
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup salted butter melted
- 1 lemon juiced
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Soak bamboo skewers in water for a minimum of 1 hour. Skewer approx. 5-6 shrimp onto each skewer and place on the bottom of a baking pan or casserole dish.
- Preheat a charcoal grill or gas grill to medium high heat (charcoal grill preferred-for that wood grilled flavor).
- In a medium bowl whisk together garlic, Worcestershire sauce, melted butter and lemon juice. Set aside.
- Brush shrimp skewers with butter mix and grill (brushing frequently) for 4-5 minutes, flipping over once, or until lightly charred and cooked thoroughly. Brush with and remaining butter before serving and season with salt and pepper to taste.
