Grand Marnier Seafood Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush the insides of 2 (8-ounce) ramekins with 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 2 teaspoons butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir flour in the melted butter until golden brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour in milk and cook, stirring continuously, until smooth and thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a mixing bowl.
• Stir orange zest and 1 tablespoon brandy-based orange liqueur into butter mixture until combined. Add egg yolks and 1/8 teaspoon vanilla; mix until smooth.
• Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until frothy. Slowly add half the 1/4 cup sugar and whisk until combined; add remaining sugar and continue to whisk until meringue is thick and holds it shape, but is not stiff.
• Fold half the meringue into egg yolk mixture until combined. Gently fold in second half until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared ramekins, allowing 1/4-inch of space at the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until risen and browned, 16 minutes.

Steps:

• Place zest and sugar in a small bowl. Mash together with the back of a wooden spoon or a muddle. Continue until sugar is absorbed into zest.
• Place in a container with a tight seal, preferably glass. Add cognac, stir and seal.
• Allow to age in a cool, dark place 2 to 3 months. Shake monthly.
• After initial aging, strain and filter. Stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Cap and age 3 months more before serving.
• Note: Seville oranges produce the authentic taste but any type of orange peel/zest may be used with good results.

Steps:

• In a large shallow dish, beat eggs with a fork. Beat in liqueur, sugar, large pinch of salt, and orange zest and juice. Add milk and beat until combined.
• In a large heavy skillet, heat 4 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high until sizzling. Gently dip brioche, one slice at a time, into egg mixture to coat and add to skillet (do not crowd pan). In batches, cook until golden brown on both sides, 5 minutes per batch, flipping once. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined wire rack. Repeat with remaining brioche, adding remaining oil and butter as needed. (Reduce heat if brioche is browning too quickly.) Serve with butter and sugar or maple syrup.

Steps:

• WHITE SAUCE: Make white sauce by melting butter over low heat in sauce pan or skillet.
• Add and blend the flour over low heat 3-5 minutes.
• Slowly stir in milk, cooking till thickened and smooth, about 20 minutes.
• Add worcestershire sauce.
• Set aside.
• CASSEROLE: Preheat oven to 350.
• Melt butter in your largest skillet and saute the mushrooms, shallots, and onion tops lightly.
• Add the seafood, and sprinkle the lemon juice over it.
• Add seasonings and Grand Marnier.
• Simmer about 10 minutes.
• Add white sauce and combine.
• Layer half the rice in a 13x9 glass casserole dish.
• Add half the seafood mixture on top of the rice.

• Top with cheese, and bake 30 minutes or until bubbly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Spread the bread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, until lightly toasted. Let cool to room temperature. Leave the oven on.
• Add the toasted bread to a food processor and pulse until finely ground. You should have about 4 cups (460 G) of bread crumbs.
• In a large bowl, combine the bread crumbs, 4 tablespoons of melted butter, the cheddar cheese, and 1 teaspoon of salt and toss to combine. Set aside.
• In a medium pot, combine 4 cups (960 ml) of white wine and a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until bright pink, about 1 minute. Use a spider or slotted spoon to transfer the shrimp to a colander to drain.
• Return the wine to a boil. Add the scallops and cook until just opaque, about 2 minutes. Transfer the scallops to a colander to drain.
• Chop the shrimp and scallops into bite-size pieces. Transfer to large bowl, along with the crab and 1 teaspoon of salt. Toss to combine.
• In a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the half-and-half, 3 tablespoons of melted butter, the flour, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, lemon juice, ketchup, remaining tablespoon of white wine, and remaining teaspoon of salt.
• Brush the remaining tablespoon of melted butter in a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) baking dish.
• Scatter the artichokes in an even layer over the bottom of the baking dish. Scoop the seafood mixture over the artichokes. Pour the sauce over the seafood. Top with the bread crumb mixture.
• Bake the casserole for 20-25 minutes, or until bubbling and golden brown.
• Top with chives and serve with lemon wedges.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Whisk first 6 ingredients to blend in medium bowl. Dip each bread slice into egg mixture and arrange in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Pour remaining egg mixture evenly over bread. Let stand until egg mixture is absorbed, at least 20 minutes. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Place baking sheet in oven and preheat to 350&F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 bread slices to skillet and saut&until cooked through and brown, about 3 minutes per side. Place on baking sheet in oven to keep warm. Repeat cooking with remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 4 bread slices. Transfer French toast to 4 plates. Sift powdered sugar over. Serve with maple syrup.

Steps:

• Rinse scallops and pat dry with paper towel. Pour all but 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier® into a glass or ceramic bowl and add scallops; marinate for 1 hour. Reserve remaining 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier®.
• Drain scallops and pat with paper towels until very dry. Let rest at least 15 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Sprinkle fois gras slice with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Combine Seville orange marmalade and reserved Grand Marnier® in a small nonstick pot over very low heat until marmalade has thickened and has the consistency of chutney, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it sizzles. Add scallops and pan-fry until well caramelized, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip scallops and pan-fry for 1 more minute. Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate.
• Meanwhile, quickly sear fois gras in a small nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat on both sides, about 30 to 40 seconds per side; do not overcook! Remove from heat and transfer to a small plate. Cut into 6 equal pieces with a sharp knife.
• To assemble, top each scallop with a slice of fois gras, 1/2 teaspoon marmalade, and a sprig of watercress.
