Cajun Shrimp Capellini | The Chef Next Door
Although I love seafood, I didn't start cooking it at home until a few years ago. For some reason I was intimidated and thought I wouldn't cook it properly. No idea why, I guess I was just being a big chicken! One day, when I was really craving scallops, I decided to put aside my insecurities and buy them. I brought them home, prepared them, and you know what? They were delicious! I didn't overcook them. They weren't rubbery and tough. They were actually soft and tender and melted in your mouth. And of course I was kicking myself for not doing that sooner! Lesson learned right there. Don't be afraid, just do it!
