Shrimp Panzanella Salad

Posted on September 21, 2024 | Leave a comment

Shrimp Panzanella Salad by Alison's AllspiceAbout a month ago, I posted a recipe for tomato panzanella salad that I have been so in love with so I wanted to share a pescatarian version as well.  This shrimp panzanella salad recipe is not very different, but a little more filling thanks to the addition of some protein.

What makes panzanella salad so great?  For me, it’s the bread!  A high quality bread is a must and I use a homemade sourdough.  In addition, the bread is lightly toasted so that it is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Continue reading →

Summer Squash Anchovy Pasta

Posted on August 10, 2024 | 2 comments

Summer Squash Anchovy Pasta by Alison's AllspiceThis summer squash anchovy pasta recipe has a surprising combination of flavors and textures that frankly work really well together. The summer squash is cooked down along with onion and garlic to make a silky-smooth, creamy sauce for the pasta.

Besides the aromatics, the sauce is flavored largely by anchovies.  They add just the right amount of funk to the dish to make it interesting. Continue reading →

Grilled Shrimp with Rhubarb Sauce by Alison's AllspiceRhubarb is more well known for its sweet applications, but I love to use it in savory ones too.  These grilled shrimp with rhubarb sauce are a great way get out the grill this season!

Shrimp Pad Thai

Shrimp Pad Thai by Alison's AllspiceLast week I posted my favorite new pad Thai sauce recipe, so this week I am sharing a shrimp pad Thai recipe to go with it!

I eat vegetarian more often than I eat fish and seafood, so I also make this same recipe without the shrimp and love that version just as much.  The tofu adds plenty of protein, and the noodles keep the dish quite filling. Continue reading →

Cherry Tomato Chickpea and Shrimp Sheet Pan Dinner

Posted on October 14, 2023 | 2 comments

Cherry Tomato Chickpea and Shrimp Sheet Pan Dinner by Alison's AllspiceThe end of tomato season is just about here for my garden, which means that now is the time that my tomatoes are the most abundant.  We put this cherry tomato chickpea and shrimp sheet pan dinner on the rotation several times before I got it just right.

First, I tried the recipe without the shrimp for a vegetarian version and I felt like it was missing some texture.  I pondered for days about what vegetable to add before I decided to try shrimp instead. Continue reading →

Grilled Shrimp Tostadas

Posted on August 13, 2023 | Leave a comment

Grilled Shrimp Tostadas by Alison's AllspiceWhen I get out my charcoal grill, I don’t like to go back and forth between the house and the grill.  Instead, I just cook everything on the grill.  In this grilled shrimp tostadas recipe, you will grill both the shrimp and the corn tortillas to make the crispy tostada shell.

I find grilling shrimp on a stick much easier than one-by-one, and kabob sticks take up much less space than a grilling basket when it comes to storage. Continue reading →

Pesto Shrimp and Snap Pea Couscous Bowls

Posted on July 20, 2023 | Leave a comment

Pesto Shrimp and Snap Pea Couscous Bowls by Alison's AllspiceMy snap pea plants stopped producing about two weeks ago, which means I have been experimenting with snap pea recipes to use up my harvest.  These pesto shrimp and snap pea couscous bowls are a favorite because they are quick and easy.

Couscous is an ingredient I don’t cook with a lot, but it deserves more attention because it is so easy and fast to make.  All you have to do is bring water to a boil, then wait 5 minutes for the couscous to absorb. Continue reading →

Lemon Caper Bay Scallops with Asparagus

Posted on May 6, 2023 | Leave a comment

Lemon Caper Bay Scallops with Asparagus by Alison's AllspiceTo me, bay scallops seam to be underrated as a seafood option.  They are inexpensive but still have great seafood flavor.  If you haven’t had them in a while, give them a try again in this recipe, lemon caper bay scallops with asparagus.

My only comment about bay scallops is that they release a lot of moisture when cooked, so they are difficult to get a sear on them like you can larger scallops. Continue reading →

Miso Glazed Salmon Burgers

Posted on April 16, 2023 | Leave a comment

Miso Glazed Salmon Burgers by Alison's AllspiceIf you love to make glazed salmon, then you will love these miso glazed salmon burgers.  The glaze could easily be used on salmon fillets, but sometimes I am just craving a burger.  These burgers are juicy and full of umami.

Topping these burgers with lettuce and tomato just would not do for me. I chose to top my burgers with cucumber slices and alfalfa sprouts. Continue reading →
