And the first storm of the season has formed in the Gulf of Mexico, putting my friends and family inside the &quot;cone of uncertainty&quot; for a hit this weekend.

Use whatever leftover protein you have on hand, and serve with a selection of dipping sauces. Serve a plate of sliced tomatoes and cucumbers on the side for an easy, tasty meal. Next, a seafood stew, called a courtbouillon in Louisiana, featuring shrimp and fish. Serve it over hot cooked rice and pass the hot sauce at the table.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000; font-size: 16px;">And finally, from my friend Tenney Flynn&#39;s excellent cookbook, a simple fillet of fish coated in finely grated parmesan instead of breadcrumbs, perfect for anyone watching their carb intake. It includes a handy tip on how to guage when it&#39;s time to flip the fish.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Enjoy the recipes, stay safe and well, and eat with gusto.&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Best regards,</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><img alt="" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Mug-Shots/susanSig.jpg" style="width: 100px; height: 49px;" /></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="width: 99px; height: 49px;">Susan Ford, Publisher and Editorial Director<br /> Louisiana Kitchen &amp; Culture</span></span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 16px;">P.S.

For this recipe, a seasoned cast iron skillet is essential for forming a crispy, golden crust that does not stick. (Teflon doesn&#39;t work, trust me.) Finish with a simple meuniere sauce, or dress it up as I suggest here. This is not a hard dish, but you do need to have everything ready as it comes together really fast.&quot;</span></p> <p class="rtecenter"><a href="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/parmesan-crusted-flounder-crabmeat"><img alt="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/pineapple-upside-down-cake" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Newsletter/artwork/getrecipe-button_0.png" style="font-size: 14px;

Then, there&#39;s ongoing construction on a new olympic sized swimming pool. And at the top of our daily walk, they were actually filming on the beach--some scenes for an episode of Matlock. Alas, we did not get discovered as the next movie star. Maybe next time!</span></p> <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px;">For my recipe picks this week, first up, an old Cajun recipe for a smothered round steak in onions. Serve it and the rich gravy over hot cooked rice or grits. Next, a seafood dish from one of my favorite New Orleans cookbooks. Ralph Brennan coats mahi-mahi in ground andouille and panko for an unusual and delicious meal.</span></p> <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px;">And finally, a really versatile lemony, gingery grilled or broiled chicken recipe that&#39;s equally good hot or cold.

Next up, a pan-saut&eacute;ed chicken dish with three different options for a pan sauce, so very versatile.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">And finally, fried shrimp in a light beer batter served with a spicy catsup on the side.

Some people include a whisper of sherry, some prefer shredded cabbage or jicama to celery, some punch it up with intense spicing, and others add more exotic ingredients. For me, shrimp salad needs to taste like shrimp, so I like to keep things simple. I cannot abide tarragon and other taste invaders. I use half low-fat mayonnaise and half low-fat sour cream to cut the calories back (and because I don&#39;t love mayonnaise). I like the sweeter white shrimp best for a delicately flavored salad.&quot;</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">&nbsp;</span><br /> <a href="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/old-school-shrimp-salad"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="width: 123px;"><span style="font-size: 14.444445px; height: 34px;"><img alt="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/pirate-spaghetti" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Newsletter/artwork/getrecipe-button_0.png" style="font-size: 14.4444446563721px; width: 123px; height: 34px;" /></span></span></span></a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; width: 175px;"> <hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; width: 175px;"><a href="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/saut-ed-chicken-three-pan-sauces"><img alt="Chicken with pan sauces" height="168" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/styles/medium/public/recipes/Louisiana%20Kitchen%20%26amp%3B%20Culture/Chicken%20with%20Three%20Pan%20Sauces.JPG" style="width: 220px; height: 168px;" width="220" /></a></td> <td scope="col" style="vertical-align: top; border-right-width: 1px; border-right-style: dotted;"> <p class="rtecenter" style="text-align: center;"><font color="#b22222" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 20px;"><b>Saut&eacute;ed Chicken with Three Pan Sauces</b></span></font></p> <p><big><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">We eat so much chicken Jim starts to cluck when I start talking about chicken for dinner, but if you have the three sauces included here in your repertoire, you can put a twist on your old standards.</span></big></p> <p><a href="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/saut-ed-chicken-three-pan-sauces"><img alt="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/easy-barbecue-baby-back-ribs" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Newsletter/artwork/getrecipe-button_0.png" style="font-size: 14.444445px; width: 123px; height: 34px;" /></a></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; width: 175px;"> <hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="vertical-align: middle; width: 230px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/recipes/beer-battered-shrimp-lighter"><img alt="Lighter Beer Battered Shrimp" height="160" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/styles/medium/public/recipes/Louisiana%20Kitchen%20%26amp%3B%20Culture/Beer%20Battered%20Shrimp.png" style="width: 220px; height: 160px; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid;" width="220" /></a></td> <td scope="col" style="vertical-align: middle; border-right-width: 1px; border-right-style: dotted;"> <p class="rtecenter" style="text-align: center;"><font color="#a82b21" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 20px;"><b>Lighter Beer Battered Shrimp</b></span></font></p> <p><span style="font-size:18px;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">From renowned cookbook author Virginia Willis Brown, this is a lighter take on beer battered and fried shrimp.

The worst seems to be behind us, thankfully, so back to typical weather next week. I&#39;m glad, because I need to spend some quality time in the kitchen cooking for our nephew and his wife; I intend to get some good, healthy meals in their freezer to make things easier after their first baby comes next month. First and foremost is a slow-braised beef pasta sauce I&#39;ve been making for Vince since he was a little kid.</span></p> <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px;">And for me, with the cooler weather it&#39;s time to get back to the grill. The last recipe below is for three different chimichurri sauces, all very good with anything off the grill. Freeze leftover to add instant interest to soups later this fall/winter. </span></p> <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px;">I&#39;ve also linked a really good brined and barbecued chicken dish; the brine makes a huge difference. And then, a very simple recipe for pan-fried fish; any mild white fish will do. Serve alongside rice or pasta for soaking up the pan juices.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="color: #000000;">Enjoy these recipes, stay&nbsp;safe&nbsp;and healthy,&nbsp;and, as always, let me know what&#39;s on your mind.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Best regards,</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><img alt="" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Mug-Shots/susanSig.jpg" style="width: 100px; height: 49px;" /></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="width: 99px; height: 49px;">Susan Ford, Publisher and Editorial Director<br /> Louisiana Kitchen &amp; Culture</span></span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 16px;">P.S.

It&#39;s her home town.</span></p> <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px;">For the recipes, first up, seafood-stuffed crabs. The seafood stuffing is delicious, and extremely versatile. Next, a simple recipe featuring plump shrimp in a sticky, garlicky sauce. And finally, a rustic shrimp bisque. I guess I&#39;m in a seafood frame of mind this week.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="color: #000000;">Enjoy these recipes, stay&nbsp;safe&nbsp;and healthy,&nbsp;and, as always, let me know what&#39;s on your mind.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Best regards,</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><img alt="" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Mug-Shots/susanSig.jpg" style="width: 100px; height: 49px;" /></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="width: 99px; height: 49px;">Susan Ford, Publisher and Editorial Director<br /> Louisiana Kitchen &amp; Culture</span></span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 16px;">P.S.

So I&#39;m going to start the dough today, and make a big batch of meatballs to simmer in marinara sauce. We&#39;ll either have meatball sandwiches, or I&#39;ll cook a pot of pasta. Salad on the side, and we&#39;ll call it a delicious Italian family dinner.

It gets better as it sits in the refrigerator, and is a tangy, cool treat for a hot summer day.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="color: #000000;">Enjoy these recipes, stay&nbsp;safe&nbsp;and healthy,&nbsp;and, as always, let me know what&#39;s on your mind.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;">Best regards,</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><img alt="" src="https://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com/sites/default/files/Mug-Shots/susanSig.jpg" style="width: 100px; height: 49px;" /></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="width: 99px; height: 49px;">Susan Ford, Publisher and Editorial Director<br /> Louisiana Kitchen &amp; Culture</span></span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 16px;">P.S.
