Okay, so I decided to splurge on myself and have some great cooking...my own. Hubby is away and I'm alone for one last night and decided to cook exactly what he would not eat and I would -- broiled shrimp and a broiled stuffed portobello mushroom (you know the giant ones) filled with little olive oil, parmesan and mozzarella. Yum.

Grilled shrimp a la Deb

1lb of fresh deveined (yuck, hate deveining the little suckers) white shrimp
salt and pepper to taste

marinade
Emeril's fish rub
Basil
Oregano
Lemon Juice
Olive oil
garlic powder
(all of the above as you need and to taste)
Toss shrimp in mixture let sit for about 10 minutes.

Heat oven on low broil.

Portobello mushroom
Drizzle top and bottom with EVOO and turn top down.
Fill with cheese of your choice and any other spices or garnishes. I like basil because it tastes pretty good on everything.
Pre heat your pan. Put it in the oven and get it very hot. Believe it or not, this will help brown your mushroom and your shrimp.
Place shrimp on one side and mushroom on the other. Broil for about 15-18 minutes at low heat. Serve and eat. Trust me, it melts in your mouth and it's one of the easiest meals you'll ever cook! Yum.

P.S. For dessert, I poached a pear in white merlot and lemon juice, talk about yummy. Later.
