And in the last hour on a Tuesday we link up with our Feisty Foodis Sara. “Today we are talking about some delicious and easy to make recipes. We’re starting off with Bacon and Mushroom Quesadillas. We can remind listeners about my homemade pico de gallo and guacamole recipe from June…they make a great accompaniment! (I’ve attached the recipes for your reference). Another easy recipe our listeners can make in under 30 minutes is a delicious Shrimp Scampi with Linguine! Some garlic bread or bruschetta would make a great accompaniment! You can even use my pico de gallo recipe for the bruschetta topping, just remove the jalapeños and swap out the cilantro for basil! You can even add a splash of balsamic and less lime juice! I’ve been inspired by all of the wineries around me and for today’s cocktail, we are going to make Frozen Rosé, aka Frosé! Can you think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon?? Just make sure you start it early or the day before!
Bacon and Mushroom Quesadillas
Ingredients
4 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 ounces mushrooms, sliced
Kosher or sea salt, to taste
Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
Eight 8-inch flour tortillas
6 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
Directions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon slices. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until bacon has rendered.
Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until tender. Season with salt and pepper and set aside to cool.
Spread half of the cheese on 4 tortillas. Top with the bacon and mushrooms. Add a final layer of cheese and gently spread the filling evenly around the tortilla, leaving a gap around the edges. Top with green chiles and remaining tortillas.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place a filled tortilla on the pan, and cook for about 3 minutes or until the bottom is golden. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the second side is golden and the cheese is completely melted.
Pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, thinly sliced green onions and lime wedges. **Our listeners can refer to my homemade pico de gallo and guacamole recipes from our June 8th show.
Shrimp Scampi with Linguine
Ingredients:
1 pound linguine
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 shallots, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Pinch red pepper flakes, optional
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1 lemon
Lemon zest from ½ lemon
¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions:
Fill a large pot with water for the pasta. When it has come to the boil, add a couple of tablespoons of salt and the linguini. Stir to make sure the pasta separates; cover. When the water returns to a boil, cook for about 6 to 8 minutes or until the pasta is not quite done. Drain the pasta.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute the shallots, garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using) until the shallots are translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Pat shrimp dry and season with salt and pepper. Add them to the pan and cook until they have turned pink, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the pan; set aside and keep warm. Add wine, lemon juice and lemon zest and bring to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil. When the butter has melted, return the shrimp to the pan along with the parsley and cooked pasta. Stir well and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle over a bit more olive oil and serve immediately.
