Method

Seafood Option

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine shrimp with minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the shrimp are coated evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Crab Option

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, gently combine lump crab meat, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, Old Bay seasoning, chopped green onions, salt, and black pepper. Be careful not to break the crab meat.

  2. 4

    Chill and Serve

    Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled with crackers or on a salad.

Reindeer Sausage Option

  1. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and bell peppers. Sauté until they are softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 6

    Add the Sausage

    Add the sliced reindeer sausage to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sausage is heated through. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
