3 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
2 medium onions (finely chopped)
1 stick butter

1/4 cup shallots (finely chopped)

Marinate chicken breasts in olive oil, red pepper, black pepper, salt & garlic powder. Place in refrigerator overnight. after chicken has marinated overnight, it is ready to prepare.

Allow chicken to cook 20 minutes then sprinkle with garlic. Place back in oven until chicken is golden brown, about another 20 minutes. Remove & keep warm.

PLace in microwave oven (if preferred, conventional oven can be used by following same directions) & cook until the onions begin to wilt & the butter is boiling. Add crabmeat & shallots.

***I don't always make the sauce. It's yummy without it!

SEAFOOD GUMBO

Ingredients:
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chopped onions
1 cup chopped bell peppers
1 cup chopped celery
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon cayenne or Tony Cachare ( I prefer Tony's)
5 bay leaves
8 cups water or shrimp stock
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound sausage
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup chopped parsley
File powder

Steps:
Combine the oil and flour in a large cast-iron pot over medium heat. Stirring slowly and constantly for 20 to 25 minutes, make a dark brown roux, the color of chocolate. Add the onions, bell peppers, celery, salt, cayenne and bay leaves. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until very soft. Add the water or shrimp stock and stir to blend. Add sausage, simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1/2 hour. Add the shrimp and cook for 15 minutes. Add the green onions and parsley and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, Remove from heat. Remove the bay leaves. Serve with file powder passed at the table. Serves 6.

I ususally add crab meant & oysters to my gumbo but I adjusted the recipe for you. You can also add chicken if you want
There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

I seen this on another forum, but then I got this in an email this morning, so I'm sharing. :) I think we'll try this out, sounds easy and fun!

ZIPLOC OMELET

This works great !!! Good for when all your family is together. The best part is that no one has to wait for their special omelet !!!

Have guests write their name on a quart-size Ziploc FREEZER bag with permanent marker.
Crack 2 eggs (large or extra-large) into the bag (not more than 2) shake to combine them. Put out a variety of ingredients such as: cheeses, ham, onion, green pepper, tomato, hash browns, salsa, etc. Each guest adds prepared ingredients of choice to their bag and shake. Make sure to get the air out of the bag and zip it up.

Place the bags into a LARGE POT of rolling, boiling water for exactly 13 minutes. You can usually cook 6-8 omelets in a large pot, making sure the bags don't stick to the metal on the pot.. For more, make another pot of boiling water.

Open the bags and the omelet will roll out easily. Be prepared for everyone to be amazed.

Nice to serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake; everyone gets involved in the process and a great conversation piece.
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure....

Ok, I hate to toot my own horn, but that was DAMN good. I cooked the pork chops in a skillet with olive oil, then in the same pan, I sauteed onions, green peppers and tomatoes with rice that I cooked in chicken broth.

(we had more than three! lol )
