Ok, here's a comfort food recipe for a cold Winter's evening. Made it tonight, and Dorcia said, "yummy"
Shrimp fish artichoke au gratin casserole
Not low fat, but very low carb.
1/4 (or less) C butter
8 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 nice sized clove of garlic, minced
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 TB flour
1/2 tsp pepper (fresh ground, naturally)
3/4 C heavy cream (I used fat free half & half, it's what I had)
2 C grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 C dry white wine
2 (7 1/2 oz ) cans King crab, flaked and drained (I used a couple of pieces of cod, chopped into bite sized pieces)
1 lb shrimp, cleaned
about 10 oz artichoke hearts cooked and drained.
Preheat oven to 375
Melt butter in skillet, add mushrooms, garlic, and green onions, saute until done.
Remove from heat and stir in flour, pepper, and cream. Slowly bring to a boil, stirring, and remove from heat. Add 1/2 C cheese, stir until melted, and stir in wine.
Combine sauce, fish, shrimp, artichokes, and 1/2 C cheese. Pour into buttered 2 quart casserole, and top withe remaining 1 C cheese.
Bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.
Prepare for your sweetie to swoon.
