SMOTHERED SHRIMP IN CRAB-MEAT GRAVY
Alexander Smalls, the chef and an owner of two Harlem restaurants, the Cecil and Minton's, serves this dish over grits as an appetizer at Christmas, but it's hearty enough for a meal at almost any time of year. It is a recipe rooted in the culinary traditions of the South Carolina coast and benefits mightily from the use of fresh shrimp and crab.

Steps:
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven set over medium heat, melt butter with olive oil. When the butter begins to foam, add garlic, onion, celery and pepper, and sauté until onion is translucent, stirring often, approximately 10 minutes. Adjust heat to high, add flour and stir briskly to make a blended, smooth roux. Continue cooking until the roux begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low, and continue to cook, stirring often, for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, until the mixture has turned a deep brown. Be careful not to burn it.
- Add sage, thyme, sherry, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, cayenne pepper and clam juice or stock, and stir to combine, then return the heat to medium. When the mixture begins to simmer, add tomato paste, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for approximately 15 minutes, stirring often. Add shrimp, cook 3 to 4 minutes, then gently fold in the crab meat and simmer an additional 2 to 3 minutes to heat through. Serve ladled over stone-ground grits.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a large baking dish and set aside.
- Place the crabmeat in a large bowl and season with the Essence. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery, and bell peppers and cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the parsley and the garlic, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Add the cooled vegetables to the crabmeat and toss to combine. Add the mayonnaise, egg, lemon juice, Worcestershire and hot sauce and stir gently with a large wooden spoon. Add 1 cup of the cracker crumbs, the salt, and pepper, and stir gently, being careful not to break up the crabmeat.
- Mound about 2 tablespoons of the crabmeat stuffing into each shrimp, press gently to close, and place, stuffed sides up, in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of the flaky, buttery cracker crumbs over the stuffed shrimp and drizzle with the remaining melted butter. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
- While the shrimp are baking, heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring continuously, for 1 minute. Add the kale and saute until the kale is just wilted, about 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the kale on 4 plates. Remove the shrimp from the oven and divide among plates, on top of the kale. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
