A dish my mother made for special occasions. According to some sources, shrimp de jonghe was invented at the turn of the 20th century by the De Jonghe brothers, Belgian immigrants and owners of DeJonghe's Hotel and Restaurant in Chicago. This garlicky, herbed casserole is one of the earliest Windy City specialties. This dish can be served as an appetizer or main course.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose Fresh Seafood: The fresher your seafood, the better your dish will taste. Look for shrimp and scallops that are plump and have a mild, briny smell.
  • Cook Seafood Properly: Overcooked seafood is tough and rubbery. Shrimp and scallops cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Cook scallops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and opaque throughout.
  • Use a Good Quality Dijon Mustard: Dijon mustard is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a Dijon mustard that is made with whole grain mustard seeds and has a sharp, tangy flavor.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The shrimp and scallops will be at their best when they are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

This shrimp and scallops dijon is a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
