Not very hungry this evening, but knew I should eat something. DH away for the evening. So I pulled out some frozen shrimp - easily and relatively quickly defrosted in cold water - chopped up a bunch of garlic, heated some olive oil and butter, cooked the garlic till fragrant, added the shrimp, plus some dried oregano, and some red pepper flakes; sauteed till the shrimp turned pink. Quite delightful, with a glass of red wine. And took about 20 minutes. I thought about veg, but decided to let it go, as, as stated, I wasn't really that hungry. The peeled shells from the shrimp went into a small saucepan, with a bit of water, brought to a boil, and then allowed to cool. Will strain the liquid, and use for future fish chowders.
