Last night I went to my friend VernaLisa's home for a Christmas Cookie Exchange/Cocktail Party. It was a wonderful party with 55 of my oldest and new friends. VernaLisa lives on a beautiful estate on the eastside of Las Vegas. Her home was decorated to the nines for Christmas with Bill Rozak, a talented local musician, who performed for hours non-stop on his organ. Bill performs at almost all of Vernalisa's parties and we love him and his music.
I decided not to participate in the Cookie Exchange this year, because the last thing I need is 4 dozen delicious cookies in my home waiting to be eaten. So instead, I brought an appetizer "One-Dish Cajun Shrimp Delish". This recipe is by Art Ginsberg, "Mr. Food" from the cookbook: "The Best of Mr. Food Cookin' Quickies". Look for this cookbook on my 'One of a Kind Cookbooks' storefront on Amazon. The ISBN is 0848725239. The price is $22.99. This is a collectible book-out of print and in brand new condition and there is only one of these. Now enjoy the recipe from this cookbook-I sure did.
One-Dish Cajun Shrimp Delish
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tbsp Cajun seasoning
2 pounds unpeeled, large fresh shrimp (about 25 per pound)
Preheat the oven to 400F. Place butter in an ungreased 9"x13" baking dish; place in oven until butter melts, about 4 minutes.
Stir wine, Cajun seasoning and shrimp into butter in dish. Bake, uncovered at 400F for 15 minutes or until shrimp turns pink, stirring occasionally. Serve in shallow bowls.
