Ingredients:

1 lb of mixed seafood (such as shrimp, crab, and scallops)

1 onion, finely chopped

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1/4 cup of white wine

1/2 cup of heavy cream

1/4 cup of breadcrumbs

1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 teaspoon of dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

1. Prepare the Seafood

Start by cleaning and deveining the shrimp, removing any shells or tails. Rinse the shrimp, crab, and scallops under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut the seafood into small pieces, ensuring they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.

Temperature: Medium heat

Time: 5 minutes

2. Sauté the Aromatics

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Temperature: Medium heat

Time: 5 minutes

3. Add the Seafood

Once the vegetables are cooked, add the mixed seafood to the skillet. Season with dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook the seafood until it is slightly opaque and just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.

Temperature: Medium heat

Time: 3-4 minutes

4. Deglaze with White Wine

Pour the white wine into the skillet, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the wine simmer and reduce by half, about 2 minutes.

Temperature: Medium heat

Time: 2 minutes

5. Add Cream and Breadcrumbs

Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine with the seafood mixture. Sprinkle in the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes.

Temperature: Low heat

Time: 2-3 minutes

6. Serve and Enjoy

Once the Paté Marinero is ready, remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the mixture to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, and serve hot with crusty bread or crackers. Enjoy the rich and savory flavors of the sea with Monsieur Cuisine’s Paté Marinero!
