Breaded Alligator Nuggets and Stuffed Jalapenos w/ Crab and Shrimp

Dinner Tonight: Breaded Alligator Nuggets and Stuffed Jalapenos w/ Crab and Shrimp







So for Breakfast on this Christmas Eve morning I toasted a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin and topped it with some Smucker’s Sugarless Blackberry Jam. Also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green. Rolled out to grab the Morning Papers and it was around 20 degrees with a cold breeze. Had snow move in later in the day. Really nothing going on here for our Christmas Eve. Did a few things around the house and a load of laundry for Mom. For Dinner tonight I prepared Breaded Alligator Nuggets and Stuffed Jalapenos w/ Crab and Shrimp.






It had been a while since I had any Alligator, "Gator', so I went to the Cajun Grocer website and purchased a few items. I ordered some HEBERT'S SPECIALTY MEATS Stuffed Jalapenos w/ Crab and Shrimp, Alligator Tenderized Fillets, and Alligator Nuggets - BREADED. So for Dinner tonight I'm preparing some of the Stuffed Jalapenos w/ Crab and Shrimp along with Breaded Alligator Nuggets.








I’m using Country Boy Gator – Alligator Tail Meat Spicy Cajun Style that I had purchased online from Cajun Grocer. They have a great selection of anything Cajun you could want and more. They

come Frozen and already Seasoned and Breaded. To prepare them I pan fried the Nuggets. I used a medium size skillet, sprayed it with Pam Cooking Spray and added a tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil. Heated it on medium heat. I checked the Oil and when it reached 350 degrees I added my Gator Nuggets. I fried them for 7 minutes turning them over after 4 minutes. They come out Golden Brown. Love the Gator Meat, as they say ”It tastes like Chicken!”. It really does but it’s has a light sweet taste to it like Crab Meat. I served it with some McCormick Tarter Sauce for dipping.





The Stuffed Jalapenos are, HEBERT'S SPECIALTY MEATS Stuffed Jalapenos w/ Crab and Shrimp. To prepare these I'm baking them. I preheated the oven to 375 degrees. I then got a small baking

sheet, lined it with foil, and sprayed the foil with Pam Non-Stick Cooking Spray. I then grabbed some of the Stuffed Jalapenos and lined them up on the sheet. Baked them for a total of 38 minutes. Well I've got me a new side dish to have on hand! These are delicious. Good size Jalapenos with plenty of Crab and Shrimp Stuffing. Really enjoyed these. I'm going to have to try more of the HEBERT'S SPECIALTY MEATS products. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny - Pop - Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.

Alligator Nuggets w/ Baked Fries and Baked Rustic French Bread

Dinner Tonight: Alligator Nuggets w/ Baked Fries and Baked Rustic French Bread





Had one of my favorite Breakfast items to start the day. I prepared some Turkey Goetta Patties with a Scrambled Egg and a Whole Grain English Muffin. With some fresh brewed Green Tea and the Sunday Paper, I was set! Still sunny, hot, humid out so not much going on. For dinner another favorite treat of mine Alligator. I prepared Alligator Nuggets w/ Baked Fries and Baked Rustic French Bread.

I use Country Boy Gator – Alligator Tail Meat that I purchase on- line from Cajun Grocer. They have a great selection of anything Cajun you could want. I pan fried the Nuggets to Golden Brown, about a total of 8 minutes. Love the Gator Meat, as they say”It tastes like Chicken!”. It really does but it’s a tad sweeter than Chicken Meat. I served it with the absolutely best tasting Remoulade Sauce I have ever tasted, Louisiana Fish Fry Products Remoulade Dressing. Man oh man this stuff is incredible. It has that hint of Horseradish and just a tad of heat. Perfect for any Cajun Seafood or any Fish.






For one side I baked up some Ore Ida Simply Cracked Black Pepper and Sea Salt Country Style Fries, served these with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. Then I also baked a loaf of Pillsbury Rustic French Bread. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl.
