Semolinas Shrimp Roban
or BBQ chicken pasta or cheeseburger pasta or pad thai or everything else on that menu. The GOAT
See the collection of Semolina's recipes in the download thread at the bottom of page 1 on this board.

Crawfish or Shrimp Roban

1 lb fresh crawfish tails (or shrimp)
2 cups Roban sauce (below)
1 ½ lbs cooked pasta
¼ cup chopped green onion

Roban Sauce

¼ cup butter
2 Tbs garlic
1 cup chopped green onions
1 quart heavy cream
1 Tbs blackened redfish seasoning

Seafood Roban
1 Tbs oil
2 oz fresh fish, cut into cubes
2 oz scallops
2 oz shrimp
1 cup Roban sauce (above)
2 cups cooked pasta shells
2 Tbs chopped green onions
Parsley
Crushed red pepper to garnish

Place butter, garlic and green onion in a sauce pot and cook just until the garlic releases it flavor.

Add heavy cream and cook until reduced by nearly one-half. When reduced, the sauce should heavily coat the back of the spoon. Add blackened redfish seasoning and adjust with more spice to taste.

Place the oil and the seafood in a sauté skillet and cook until the seafood is ¾ done. Add the Roban sauce and bring to a boil. Pour the sauce and seafood over the pasta and garnish with the remaining ingredients.

Tips
Seafood Roban uses fresh fish, scallops and shrimp. Use the sauce recipe above.

If you use a vacuum sealer and freeze in bags, you can re-heat it by putting the bag in a pot of boiling water. Might be more convenient in a camping situation or a location without a microwave.
I loved the Double R Bar Burger at Roy Rogers.

Yeah, I'm aware. But the one I posted said it was from Ralph. Who knows if he gave the right one.

re: Cajun seasoning sodium content

Tony's was designed so that when the food was properly salted, the rest of the seasoning would be just right. If you use a lower salt alternative and follow the same rule of thumb, your food will naturally taste spicier (hotter).

On another point, I've never been sure what "no salt" means - does it mean no sodium of any sort, or does it mean it has a substitute for sodium chloride (like a potassium-based flavoring agent)?

I have found SMT brand tomatoes to be excellent. I think they are better than Cento. Their tomatoes are grown in the US, but they use the San Marzano cultivar. They are fairly pricy for a domestic product though.

Two California residents are suing Cento Fine Foods, alleging the company engaged in "tomato fraud" by claiming that the tomatoes in one of its canned products are the authentic "San Marzano Certified" version from Italy.

Why would you recommend this stupid arse thing when one can just get a pizza steel?
This is more versatile than a steel. This can be used for other foods besides pizza and bread. It promotes even cooking and browning for roasts, for example. It provides another rack when you need it, like for Thanksgiving when oven space is at a premium.
