Some Gnarly Appetizers Pt. 2

This appetizer is so gnarly, it doesn't even need an intro!

Shrimp Tapas

Ingredients (Depends on amount you want): 
- Olive oil
- Sliced Onions
- Minced Garlic
- Shrimp
- Spanish Paprika
- Salt
- Black Pepper
- Lemon Juice
- Pan



1.) Put the olive oil on the pan and put it on medium-high heat.


2.) Once the olive oil is hot, put in the onions and garlic. Cook for around 4 minutes.


3.) Add the shrimp and cook for another 4 minutes. Stir occasionally.


5.) Then, add the paprika and salt and lemon juice.

6.) Enjoy!


Those shrimps were AMAZING. It was one of the most simplest things to make and I didn't even spend much time in the kitchen. AT ALL! According to Emeril Lagasse, it is "So simple and tasty!" (6). These shrimp tasted EXACTLY like Takis but with a seafood texture. It is an amazing combination of chorzino and shrimp and it is a great appetizer for an event(6). I guarantee to you that this is probably one of the best seafood you're going to ever have!

What has been your long time favorite appetizer?

Milk Chocolate Fondue




For my final blog i decided to make a desert. the prep time is 15 minutes, and start to finish is 15 minutes. in this recipe it makes 8 servings (1/4 cup fondue and 6 dippers each) 



Ingredients:
1. 2/3 cup half- and-half   2. 12 oz milk chocolate or 2 cups of chocolate chips 

3. dippers( pound cake cubes, strawberries, pineapple chunks, apple slices, marshmallows


Directions:

1. In heavy 2 quart saucepan, heat half-and-half and chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth; remove from heat. Pour into fondue pot or chafing dish 

2. Spear dippers with fondue forks; dip into fondue. ( If fondue becomes too thick, stir in a small amount of half-and-half)

this is what the end result is supposed to look like
