Hey all first post here.
Sunday dinner...was having some friends come by, this couple I know.
Were going to grill, but the weather had other thoughts. So I had this
3.65 lb. 'Top Round first-cut London Broil' and had the itch for
shrimp & rice.
Set the meat to marinade in the afternoon in a mix of soy sauce,
worcesteshire (sp?), garlic, evoo, honey, salt & pepper.
An hour and a half later, friend called, 3 other people were coming.
Figured all was cool, plenty food to go around as is.
Set the shrimp to marinade in tequila, evoo, & garlic.
Set my yellow rice (I swear by the Goya brand) to cook in the rice
cooker with corn, onions, peppers, garlic (can you tell I like
garlic), & a pat of butter. Was wishing I had the dry chorizo on hand,
but alas, none was to be had.
Cooked the meat to medium rare, sauteed the shrimp, reduced the
tequila sauce, sauteed up a batch of onions & cremini 'shrooms for the
beef.
Friends came by, brought 2 salads & eggplant parmesan, some kickass
wines, and had a blast.
I was lucky enough to end up with most of the leftovers (house
benefit!), which I've been happily gobbling up.
Cheers!
