Seafood feast


So tonight hubby and I had a huge seafood craving.  Not for just scallops or shrimp.  But for everything scallops, shrimp, oysters, mussels and even lobster.



So we started with mussels with a plate of chilled mussels on the half shell with mignonette sauce.  These were delicious!  We always have our mussels hot.  But these were steam in white wine then tossed in a mignonette sauce of the leftover wine from the mussels, shallots, parlsely and chopped capers.  Then you put the mussel on each shell and top with a bit of the sauce.

Then we had a plate of hot seafoods.



I made a sweet potato puree and topped it with a corn, red pepper and red onion succotash.  It was topped with 4 panko coated scallops.  In the back are deep fried oysters.  3 lemon garlic shrimp and a lobster complete the dinner.  It was yummy! 

The only thing I would do different next time is to make a dip or sauce for the oysters.  They were good but needed something.
All in all a pretty good meal.  Can't wait to do it again!
