This garlic sauce has many applications. You can grill, sauté or bake with it. Here are a few ideas.
Grilled Oysters - Top raw oysters still on the half shell with the sauce. Place on a very hot grill. Add a combination of Romano and Parmesan cheese. When they start to bubble and oysters start to turn up, it’s ready. Dip French bread in the sauce in the shell.
Shrimp Scampi - Sauté shrimp with mushrooms in sauce then deglaze the pan with white wine. When shrimp are done add a pinch of Cajun seasoning, green onion and cooked pasta. Garnish with Parmesan and fresh parsley.
Caper Sauce - Sauté capers in sauce with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Great on sautéed veal, fish or chicken.
BBQ Shrimp New Orleans Style - Take fresh shrimp head on and place in roasting pan. For 2 pounds of shrimp cover them with one cup sauce, 1/4 cup black pepper and 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning. Bake at 350 until done. Add a pinch of fresh rosemary for a nice touch.
Hot Garlic Wings - Fry chicken wings or tenders. Heat 1 cup of sauce and add 1/4 cup of sriracha sauce. Place chicken and sauce in a bowl and toss.
Garlic Bread - Brush on bread and grill or bake. It takes on the flavor of roasted garlic bread.
