Spicy Tequila Lime Shrimp with Polenta Rounds

Bored and coming up with recipes HAHAHA;)

The polenta is 'tamale' inspired...

2 pounds fresh uncooked prawns

2 ts salt

1/4 cup lime juice

1/4 cup good quality tequila (I prefer El Tesoro)

1 while onion sliced halved and sliced thin

1 sweet red bellpepper seeded and julienned approx 1/4" thin

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 ts pasilla chile powder (or chipotle if you prefer)

1/4 cup chopped cilantro

2 tb oil or butter

1 tube plain San Gennaro precooked polenta. (or cook your own following basic plain polenta recipe)

Marinade peeled shrimp, bellpepper and onion in large mixing bowl with lime juice, tequila, salt, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro, and chile powder. Toss together until well blended. Set in fridge to marinade for 1 hour.

Preheat 12" skillet and put in oil or butter, and add shrimp, bellpeppers and onion and remaining lime|tequila marinade from the bowl. Cook until shrimp are pink and opaque and veggies are soft, and serve over hot polenta in big pasta bowls or dinner plate drizzling remaining juices over the top.

You can top with chedder or queso blanco if you can have cheese. Or Vegan cheese if you choose.

Enjoy!

Looks like a great recipe!

Wish I could send you some of the Kona Rangpur limes we grow here.

Here's my son's recipe (He's the chef at Merrimans on the Big Island.)

When we were in Chicago, I bought a 4 tube fluorescent fixture and hung it over a table so I could grow fresh herbs.

YOu could buy them in the store in Chicago during the winter but they were frozen by the time I got home <G>

      New Study Finds 1 in 10 Celiac Patients May Have Additional Autoimmune Disorders (+Video)

      Kinda glad I read this and some related materials. My celiac symptoms seem mild and I sometimes question if the hassle of the gluten-free diet/lifestyle is worth it for mild symptoms. This is one of the answers to that. gluten-free diet can delay onset/progression of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome, but cannot reverse it.

      makes sense. sometimes you learn one path and never question it until you see someone take a different path

      Interesting I read that toasted kasha groats have nutty flavor which I thought like oatmeal with banana and yogurt. Yes quinoa I have for dinner looking to switch oatmeal to buckwheat for breakfast. I have to look into amaranth

      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat...

      The basic seems more like oatmeal. You can also add yogurt banana to it like oatmeal right. I see rinsing as first step in basic recipes like this one https://busycooks.com/how-to-cook-toasted-buckwheat-groats-kasha/ I don't understand why since kasha is toasted and not raw. What about buckwheat flake cereal or is this better to go with.

      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat it plain, like rice, with chicken stock or other savory things, or with coconut milk. Since coconut milk works, I would think yogurt would work (with the quinoa). I went to the link you posted. I really don't know why they rinse the kasha. I've eaten it for decades and never rinsed it. Other than that, her recipe seems fine (that is, add the buckwheat with the water, rather than wait until the water is boiling). She does say something that I forgot: you want to get roasted/toasted buckwheat or you will need to toast it yourself. I've never tried buckwheat flakes. One potential issue with flakes is that there are more processing steps and as a rule of thumb, every processing step is another opportunity for cross-contamination. I have tried something that was a finer grind of the buckwheat than the whole/coarse and I didn't like it as much. But, maybe that was simply because it wasn't "normal" to me, I don't know.

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Celiac disease can have neurological associations, but the better-described ones include gluten ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, headaches or migraine, seizures, cognitive symptoms, and, rarely, cerebral calcifications or white-matter changes. Some studies and case reports describe brain white-matter lesions in people with celiac disease, but these are not specific to celiac disease and can have many other explanations. A frontal lobe lesion could mean many different things depending on the exact wording of the report: a white-matter spot, inflammation, demyelination, a small old stroke, migraine-related change, infection, trauma, vascular change, seizure-related change, tumor-like lesion, artifact, or something that resolved on repeat imaging. The word “transient” usually means it changed or disappeared, which can happen with some inflammatory, seizure-related, migraine-related, vascular, or imaging-artifact situations.  Hopefully they will find nothing serious.
