Seafood Cornbread Recipes

BLUE MOONANDREG; SHRIMP AND CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Description
• Spring is custom-made for this dish of stuffed cornbread, creamy lemon cayenne sauce, tomato, shrimp, avocado, and corn.
• Pairing
• The light, citrus flavors in Blue Moon® Spring Blonde Wheat Ale lend a delightful splash of sunshine to seafood dishes.
• Cut corn bread into 2" x 3" rectangles and cut each rectangle in half. Put on a baking dish and preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• To make the sauce, saute onion in a thin layer of oil until translucent. Add lemon juice, corn, tomatoes, and cayenne. Immediately add heavy cream, reduce the volume by half until sauce is thick. Add shrimp and simmer until shrimp are fully cooked.
• Warm corn bread in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes. Put in four bowls and top with shrimp mix, then top with more corn bread and more shrimp mix.
• Garnish with lemon slices, parsley and avocado slices.

CRAWFISH CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

In another bowl, beat together the eggs, onion, green pepper, pimentos, vegetable oil, Cheddar cheese, cream-style corn, jalapeno pepper, crawfish tails, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder until the mixture is well combined. Pour the crawfish mixture into the cornmeal mixture, and stir together. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cornbread is lightly golden brown, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Allow to rest for about 10 minutes before serving.

HOLLY'S SHRIMP CORN BREAD

• Combine cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and Creole seasoning in a bowl. Add eggs and butter; mix until smooth. Fold corn, shrimp, 8 ounces Cheddar cheese, onion, and jalapeno peppers into the batter. Spread in the prepared dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese on top; continue baking until melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

CAJUN SEAFOOD CORNBREAD STUFFING (FOR PORK, CHICKEN OR FISH)

Steps:

• Bake cornbread and allow to cool, or use leftover. Crumble into fairly fine crumbs to equal 2 cups.
• Clean and de-vien shrimp, chop into course pieces, 1/2 inch. Save shells.
• In a small sauce pan bring chicken broth to simmer, add shrimp shells and simmer for 20 minutes. Set aside and add the juice from the canned clams.
• Saute onion and celery in butter until tender.
• Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs and cornbread crumbs, salt, pepper, sage, garlic powder and poultry seasoning, mix well.
• Strain broth into crumb mixture with a fine sieve or colender, discard shells, and give a quick stir. Add soup and eggs and stir well.
• Fold in shrimp and clams.
• Now, here is the important part, you want a really moist mixture that is not too moist. You may have to add broth or water (I used a tad bit of beer he he) You want to be able to use a big soup spoon, not a ladle but one of those huge spoons, scoop up some of the dressing and if a little runs off the sides but still remains heeped up on the spoon, perfect. If nothing runs off the sides of the spoon and you picked up a big ball of stuffing it is too thick. You need to add broth, water, or in my case beer until it forms a rounded peek when scooped instead of a ball.
• Now, your stuffing is ready to cook, boy this is good. Take you a good cut of porkchop, fish, or chicken breast, place each serving on a piece of greased foil big enough to fold the sides of the foil up high enough to hold the stuffing, place the servings on cookie sheet and fill it up with the stuffing. Oh man, this just keeps getting better.
• Depending on how big your pieces of meat are and how much stuffing you put on them will determine on how long you need to cook them. You need to use a meat thermometer to test the doneness. When done, allow to cool 5 minutes, fold back foil and use a spatula to remove onto plate.
• I cook mine at 375 F for about an hour. I use thick cuts and lots of stuffing. This is good stuff man!
• I even make these ahead and freeze them, just thaw and cook.
• Servings, prep and cooking times are estimated as best as I can.
