Seafood has become one of America's
favorite choices for dinner whether it's
a great homecooked meal for family
or guest, or a top choice if you plan on
eating out at an upscale restaurant. We
thought
it fitting then to have a group of Recipes of Seafood and Seafood Sides for you to choose from. So our feature for a couple of weeks will be..........yea you guessed it !! Seafood !! And we are going to start with probably one of the most, if not the most versatile of all seafoods ..Shrimp. This little guy has never been given the credit he is due... You can put him in almost anything and come up with a great tasting as well as good for you main dish. Or you can serve it steamed with a quality dipping sauce as an appetizer and your main dish doesn't have to be so great as you have already served the best part of the meal!!
Let's start with the recipe below, it's a great recipe for a wonderful tasting Coconut Shrimp and then a recipe for a Pina Colada dipping sauce to top it all off.
