Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the process with all remaining slices.Spray the tops of the eggplant slices well with cooking oil and bake until the eggplant is soft and the crust is crispy, about 15 minutes.

Savory Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi - BigOven.com
4 Servings
Shrimp Italian
Shrimp, Scampi, Shrimp Scampi, Butter, Garlic, collxnrm, collsx4main, collxweeknight, collsxnrm, collsxrsf
Large raw shrimp
Garlic cloves
Butter
Olive Oil
Fresh Parsley chopped
Lemon Juice
Preparation: Finely mince 3 large (or 4 medium) cloves of garlic and set aside, the finer the mince the better. Finely chop a few sprigs of fresh parsley set aside. De-vein, de-shell all raw shrimp and place on a plate with a layer of paper towels underneath and pat dry the top with another paper towel to remove all excess moisture. Season shrimp with a little salt and pepper (sea salt and fresh cracked multi colored pepper corns is my favorite) Cooking: Add 1 quarter of a stick of butter and a splash of olive oil (about a table spoon) to a large sauté pan (you should be able to add all of the shrimp at once without having any shrimp on top another). Turn heat up high and let butter melt (its important to bring the heat up fast and high but WITHOUT reaching the olive oils smoking point) and add shrimp to pan, cook on medium high heat for 2 minutes before disturbing the shrimp to get a nice sear. Once shrimp has gone from the grayish color to mostly pink flip the shrimp and sauté the other side for 2 minutes. Remove shrimp and place into a dish with low sides to contain the butter garlic sauce (a small casserole dish works well). Add 3 quarters of a stick of butter and finely minced garlic to sauté pan with heat on medium (the one you cooked the shrimp in). Allow the butter to melt completely and poor over shrimp, sprinkle fresh chopped parsley and a splash of lemon juice over the shrimp and serve. If you are adding to pasta, Remove the tails when de-shelling, and add in a little heavy cream and fresh grated parmesian cheese during the last step (making the sauce in the pan after removing the shrimp) for a creamy garlic butter sauce, goes great with angel hair pasta or linguini. This recipe is also great for on top of a Ribeye.

This is a major re-write of this dish that I posted many years ago before I knew what I was doing in the kitchen. I kept the original at the bottom, since I had already posted it under this name on BigOven. Flatten chicken breasts to an even 3/4 to 1inch thickness. This will help ensure even cooking. Season with a dry rub of the next 4 ingredients. Prepare your grill to a heat of 350f and place seasoned breasts over direct heat about 7-8 inches from the heating element (grid extender on a Big Green Egg or the second level rack on most other grills). After 5 minutes, flip the breasts. After another 5 minutes (10 minute mark), flip the breasts again and brush with a mixture of the butter/lemon. Repeat at the 15 minute and 20 minute marks. Remove from heat at 25 minutes total. Tent with foil to keep warm. Heat a skillet over your grill or stove top. Melt a tablespoon of butter and saute the artichoke hearts for 1-2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, stemmed basil leaf halves, reserved artichoke juice and simmer until starting to reduce, which will take another 3-4 minutes. Top each chicken piece with some of the tomato, artichoke heart, basil mixture. Garnish with some more basil and shaved peccerino-reggiano cheese if you like. Sure, you could do this in the kitchen if you wanted to. But why would you want to when you can do it on the grill? As I originally wrote it years ago: Ingredients 1 tblspoons butter 6 ounce artichoke hearts 1 can tomato 1 teaspoon garlic 4 ea skinless boneless chicken breasts black pepper to taste Drain tomatoes and artichoke hearts, reserving juice. Melt butter in skillet over medium heat and saute artichoke hearts for 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and garlic and saute 1 minute. Add the reserved tomato and artichoke heart juice. Heat to a boil and simmer 5 minutes. Rub chicken on both sides with pepper. Add to sauce and cook about 10 minutes per side until 165 internal. Serve over rice.

egg whites
vanilla extract
lemon extract
Flour
heavy cream
semisweet chocolate
orange
orange extract
Directions: Cream the butter with a paddle attachment then mix in the sugar.Add the egg whites gradually and then mix in the vanilla and lemon extracts.Add the flour and mix until just incorporated.With a small (1/4-inch) plain tip ....I used a plastic bag and cut off the tip (about 1/2 inch).Pipe 1-inch sections(I thought they would be too small so I made them close to 2 inches) of batter onto a parchment-lined sheet pan, spacing them 2 inches apart as they spread.Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes( this was too much...I noticed mine took about 6-8 minutes) or until light golden brown around the edges. Keep an eye on them! Let cool on the pan.Cookie Filling: In a small saucepan over medium flame, scald cream. Pour hot cream over chocolate in a bowl.Whisk to melt chocolate, add zest, extract and blend well.Set aside to cool (the mixture will thicken as it cools). Spread a thin amount of the filling onto the flat side of a cookie while the filling is still soft and press( or place gently) the flat side of a second cookie on top. I used a plastic bag to hold the filling and cut of a small hole at the tip of the bag. I then squeezed some filling on the cookie. This minimizes the mess of spreading it on the cookie. It is much cleaner.Repeat with the remainder of the cookies.
