Can’t wait to try this !!
The bomb. Made for Christmas and Easter. None was left and everyone raved about how good it was. Forwarding recipe to a friend to try. Highly recommend.
My new Christmas dinner. Made it last year, none was left. Such a nice change from the traditional meal.
This sounds amazing and will make for company in a couple weeks. Will use lobster and shrimp. What is Tony’s?? Thanks
Tony Chachere’s Creole Seasoning. Sorry forgot to list that ingredient. 🙂
This sounds amazing and I’m planning on making this tomorrow. However in the ricotta step, you’re instructing adding parsley, paprika, and basil, which are not listed in the ingredients. Can you advise how much of each please — and in relation to the parsley and basil, are we talking fresh or dried? Thanks!
I removed that from the recipe. I think if you wanted to use them then just sprinkle on top or leave them out. I updated my recipe. Thank you for your comment. 🙂
Thanks Debbie! I made it with the omitted ingredients (guesstimating), and while it was tasty, I’d have to agree with you, I would leave them out of the recipe too — next time! ?
Glad you enjoyed 🙂
