Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    MAKE BROTH

  2. 2

    In a large skillet melt a bit of butter and add shrimp shells and brown lightly, just 2 to 3 minutes, add all remaining broth ingredients and simmer 30 minutes to reduce by about 1/2, strain broth and discard solids, set aside.

    MAKE CREAM BASE

  4. 4

    In a saucepan melt butter, add mushrooms cover and cook on low until they become soft, uncover and add shallots and garlic and soften 1 minute, add cream and pepper, salt and hot sauce bring to a simmer and reduce by about 1/2.

  5. 5

    Combine broth and cream reductions and whisk well. Transfer to a deep skillet that has a cover. Add seafood to lightly simmering sauce in one layer cover and poach until all is just cooked through. If your skillet can not hold all the seafood on one layer, poach in batches and remove to a plate and cover while finishing the remainder. The timing depends on the size and thickness of each seafood.

“Fenway” passed away on 2/3/2021. For the last year she tried to teach her husband of 42 years how to cook like her. Although I will never be as good of a cook as her she did pass on her passion for cooking. Therefore, I will attempt to carry on her legacy and maintain/update her site. My wife was a Registered Nurse, a licensed deep water aerobics instructor, a mother to our 2 children and a fantastic cook. We grew up in New England but have been fortunate to live all over the US. I am now retired, missing her terribly, but thankful for all the years we had together and all her cooking lessons.
