Baja Seafood Tacos

This recipe comes from Mary Nell Reck, a local chef and restaurant owner who, sadly, is no longer with us. She also wrote a weekly cooking lesson for The Houston Post, which also no longer exists! This was from that paper on October 4, 1989.The prep work may seem a little lengthy, but it all goes together quickly once you start!

Baja Shrimp Cocktail

This is our version of the extremely popular appetizer served at Chinook’s restaurant in Seattle’s Fisherman’s Terminal. Fast and fresh, this makes a great party dish as almost everything can be made ahead of time. It’s also a great main dish on those nights when it’s too hot to cook in the kitchen. So sit back, relax, pop a cold one and imagine yourself on the beaches of Baja. This is one appetizer that let’s you enjoy your own fiesta.
