Smashed Potatoes and Shrimp

This is a lovely summer dish which is fairly easy to prepare and can be modified to use the produce you have on hand

New potatoes (I prefer red)
mushrooms
asparagus (trimmed)
raw Shrimp, peeled, deveined

bacon grease (or olive oil)
Cayenne
2 (or more) cloves garlic, minced
salt and pepper
1/3 cup white wine

Prepare a skillet with the bacon grease,
Boil the potatoes until tender, drain and add to the skillet.  Add garlic, Cayenne, salt and pepper to taste
Allow potatoes to brown
Add mushrooms, cook for about 5 minutes, allow to brown if you desire
add asparagus and allow to cook for an additional 5 minutes
Add shrimp, cook for 3 minutes or until done
deglaze pan with white whine and allow sauce to thicken slightly.  Serve immediately

Chicken Rollups

This is an easy dish when you need a tasty meal fast--which I always do during Track season

wooden toothpicks
