I seem to be on a seafood/fish kick since the beginning of 2021. Here is another one to add to your list! I adapted this from a recipe by Giada De Laurentiis. I first started making it when our oldest son, Ian, was a cross country runner in high school. […]
There is a restaurant in Santa Monica called Killer Shrimp that Rob talked about for years. He always went there when he had a business trip to Los Angeles. He raved about it! He described the concept of their signature dish and after searching the internet, I found a close […]
