Ribeye au poivre with Crawfish Bordelaise and Grilled Shrimp
Just made this Friday for some of my LC buddies. Not sure of the Carb count, but I would surmise it's about 8 ECC per steak, including bordelaise and ke-bob. Enjoy!
Grilled RibEye (au poivre)
4 Angus Rib Eye steaks
Cracked black pepper
Garlic Powder
Grind black peppercorn coarsely. Mix with equal amounts of garlic powder.
Pierce steaks several times with a fork. Not too many, as the marbling will serve to tenderize.
Rub pepper/garlic mixture onto both sides of steak
Let sit for 30 minutes, in refigerator, covered.
Grill to desired doneness (about 11 minutes for medium rare, medium heat, turning occassionally after first 5 minutes)
Grilled Shrimp Ka-Bobs
1 lb. shrimp
3 bell peppers, different colors (or sub 1 pepper with an onion)
2 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. paprika
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. salt
Wash shrimp and pat dry on paper towels. Peel shells and discard. De-vein each shrimp
Wash, de-seed and chop the peppers and onion into 1" square sections.
Mince the garlic with salt. Mix the garlic-salt with lemon juice, olive oil, cayenne pepper, and paprika in a large bowl.
Add the shrimp and peppers and toss well to coat.
Thread the skewers with the shrimp and veggies. Place the skewers on a large baking sheet and pour the remaining marinade over the top.
Grill the kebabs 2-3 minutes on each side.
Crawfish Bordelaise
1/4 stick butter
1/2 cup chopped cajun sausage
3/4 cup chopped bell pepper (can mix the colors)
1/2 large onion (chopped)
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
Assorted Seasonings (Italian seasonings, cayenne, hot sauce)
1/2-3/4 cup heavy cream
1 pound crawfish tails
Grated Parmesan
In a small saucepan, melt butter. Add sausage, peppers, onions and seasoning and sauté until tender (about 5 minutes.) Add mushrooms just before completion.
Add cream, and reduce the sauce over medium heat. Add crawfish, and cook for 3-4 minutes until thickened. Adjust seasoning. Add parmesan to taste, generally 3/4 cup grated. This will ticken sauce further.
