Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Acadian Peppered Shrimp


fish, main dish, cajun

1 lb butter
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped
2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf, crumbled
1/2 cup black pepper, finely ground
1 salt
4 lb large raw shrimp in shells

The shrimp should be of a size to number 30-35 per pound. Melt the butter in a large deep-sided frying pan or iron skillet over low heat. When melted, raise the heat, and add the remaining ingredients except the shrimp. Cook, stirring often, until browned to a rich mahogany color, about 10 minutes. Add the shrimp, stirring and turning to coat well with the seasoned butter. Cook until the shrimp have turned a rich deep pink, about 10 minutes. Serve the shrimp in their shells, peeling them at the table. From Nathalie Dupree's "New Southern Cooking"
