With the theme of ushering in the "Rite of Spring" here in New England, I created this delicious and simple recipe using fiddleheads. Featured WildCheff Blends used in this recipe are my Fish Blend (also currently referred to as Seafood Blend) coupled with my Chipotle Flakes which add a nice hint of spice and smokiness to this dish!

Fiddlehead & Shrimp Scampi
(makes 2 servings)

Ingredients

1/2 lb fiddleheads (trimmed and well cleaned)
½ lb of large shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 Tbsp of olive oil or Grapeseed oil
2 Tbsp of butter
1 Pinch of WildCheff Chipotle Pepper Flakes (optional)
2 Scallions, chopped
2 Garlic cloves, minced
¼ C of White Wine (something you would drink)
1 Lemon (juice and zest)
½ lb of linguine or angel hair pasta (cooked)
1 tsp of WildCheff Fish Blend
Parmigiano Reggiano to taste (grated)

Directions


1. Cook the fiddleheads in boiling water for 3 minutes, drain and set aside.
2. Heat the oil and melt the butter in a pan over medium to medium high heat
3. Add the chipotle flakes, scallions and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
4. Add the fiddleheads and shrimp and sauté until the fiddle heads are bright green and the shrimp is cooked, about 1-3 minutes per side and set aside.
5. Add the wine and lemon juice and deglaze the pan.
6. Simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3-5 minutes.
7. Re-add the fiddleheads, shrimp, pasta and WildCheff Fish Blend and toss to coat.
