Chris Loves Julia - Grain and Dairy Free Crab Cakes

Crab Cakes with Easy Remoulade Sauce (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)

I love ordering crab cakes out—they're such a treat. But if I want to make crab cakes at home, they need to cater to our food restrictions. That means they have to be delicious AND have no eggs, dairy, wheat, gluten or grains. Well these knock it out of the park, thanks to some secret […]

Easy Chili Lime Grilled Shrimp Recipe

We’ve been traveling to several North Carolina beaches this spring and summer, and I’m always in search of some good seafood. The coastline has great shrimp that is often fried or steamed, but this time of year I crave the flavor of the grill. Plus I love adding fresh flavors and herbs to my dishes, […]

Low Country Seafood Boil | Chris Cooks

Shrimp boils are one of the easiest and tastiest ways to feed a group of people! It's a fun social meal that cleans up in minutes. I do love an all-around win-win. 😎 When hosting a shrimp boil, the key is to stagger when you add things - timing is everything. Now let's get into it, […]

Sweet & Sour Shrimp (Grain & Gluten Free) | Chris Cooks

Asian food is tricky for a lot of food allergies, particularly grain & gluten. For example, sweet & sour sauce. Typically made with rice vinegar, thickened with corn starch, seasoned with soy sauce (which most often contains gluten). But with a few substitutions, this version hits all the highs without the dietary lows that can […]

Lemon Pepper Salmon

Lemon Pepper Salmon (seared salmon with a lemon & pepper sauce)

Fish with lemon pepper seasoning was a staple of my childhood. Growing up in Idaho, all summer long we'd dine on fresh-caught river trout, cooked in a pan with that familiar shaker of McCormmick lemon pepper (still one of my favorite things to have for breakfast). But year round, the same would be applied to […]

Three Delicious Crab Dips (gluten, grain, and dairy free!)

Crab dip isn't inherently "holiday," but it's always just been that way for me growing up. I don't ever remember having it any other time of year, even though I love it so much. Now that our diets have shifted, I love taking old favorites and making versions our entire family can enjoy. And boy, […]

Green Curry Clams & Mussels

My family doesn't care for seafood or spicy food, but sometimes I need to make something just for me. And this is a forever favorite. Next time you have an evening to yourself, or a like-minded friend coming over for casual conversation, give this dish a whirl. So much flavor, easy to make, but presents […]

Shrimp Salad Endive Cups with Fresh Cherries

Some fruits and vegetables generally taste the same year round, while others should really be in season to truly be appreciated. For me, cherries fall into the second group, which is unfortunate because I love fresh cherries. BUT! Cherry season is upon us, so let's celebrate and use some cherries! This shrimp salad really is something […]

Chicken & Sausage Paella

For busy week nights, it's nice to have a few dishes in your back pocket that come together quick, use only one pan, and act as protein, main dish & side dish all together. Paella is one of those things for me, and I love how versatile it is. Paella is traditionally a seafood dish, […]

Chris Cooks: Grain & Dairy Free Clam Chowder

Recipes

Grain, Gluten & Dairy Free Clam Chowder

Chowders are typically creamy soups thickened with corn starch or flour. Rhode Island Clam Chowder is not thickened, doesn't include cream, and is a great option for those who may love clam chowder but can't eat grains. And though it traditionally calls for butter, it can easily be made dairy free as well by subbing […]

Gluten-Free Coconut Shrimp, and It's Way Easier Than You're Thinking

When I lived in Louisiana, I met a man named Skip. Skip was a young Cajun who made a living catching crawfish out of the bayous and shrimp from the gulf, and selling them roadside out of 2 old coolers. He lived a simple life, spent most of his time alone, and always smiled. And […]

Lobster Rolls - Plus, How to Grill Lobster Tails

Lobster isn't a common dish in our house. In fact, Jules has had it one time in her entire life - last night, when I made these lobster rolls. She was a little nervous, because she only sometimes tolerates shrimp (which you could use for this dish, instead of lobster). I assured all would be […]

Pan-Seared Halibut with Coconut Curry Broth

So something about me - I love seafood. Like, it could possibly rival smoked barbecue ribs for my favorite thing to eat, ever. Unfortunately, I live in ol' land-locked Utah and fresh seafood is not only difficult to find, but abnormally expensive when you do find it. That's why I'm always looking for a "special […]
