Garbage Chef
My good friends Nate & Paula Orr coined this phrase which means "cooking with whatever you can find in your cupboard."
Tonight, I was a garbage chef.
I took 1/2 a bag of frozen shrimp that has been in my freezer for over a month. I sauteed some garlic and onions on my favorite skillet and added the shrimp, de-tailed and chopped in half. I let that simmer for a while. I didn't have any heavy cream so I poured in some whole milk and used whatever was left of the parmesan cheese and grated it to thicken the sauce. As that was simmering, I quickly boiled the fettucini that we've had FOREVER.
Salt & Pepper to taste...as always.
I love my skillet.
