I'm breaking in my new kitchen this weekend by having some new friends for an appetizer/tapas party. The female half of this couple does not eat meat, but will eat seafood. I have a few things in mind, but also a couple questions
Here's what I'm thinking at this point
Emmenthaler and pistachio finger sandwiches
Tiny pizzas with goat cheese, asparagus tips, and roasted peppers
Fried fresh mozzarella with a red sauce
Crab tator tots. (Got this from "Soul of a Chef" and have been wanting to try them)
Grilled shrimp (Chile oil, lime marinade)
Kind of heavy on the cheese I know, but this is Wisconsin, and that's kind of the joke. They're from Illinois. If someone has a vegetarian idea for me I'm all ears, or eyes in this case.
I would like to sear a little piece of Halibut. Any suggestions for a sauce
I would also like to serve a cocktail with Limoncello. I had a decent Limoncello margarita in Florida once, but am not sure how that was put together. Any Limoncello ideas would be appreciated
For dessert I think I'm going with grilled peaches, raspberry sauce, and Kopps frozen custard. Kopps is an institution here in the Milwaukee area. Mezzaluna will back me up on that I bet
I'm open to wine ideas.
My skills aren't bad, but sometimes my menu planning gets a little out of hand and unbalanced. Experts feel free to reign me in
Thanks in advance for any help
