Fried Oysters and Hand Cut Fries

Fried Oysters and Hand Cut Fries

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 dozen freshly shucked oysters (we recommend Wittman Wharf)

  • 3 cups buttermilk

  • 1.5 tsp hot sauce

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 Tbsp Londonderry Spice Blend

  • 4-5 russet potatoes

  • Canola or vegetable oil for frying

DIRECTIONS

  1. Cut potatoes lengthwise into ½ inch thick sticks. (Do not remove the peel)
  2. Place potatoes in a cold-water bath, completely submerged for at least one hour.
  3. While potatoes are soaking, mix together buttermilk and hot sauce in a medium size bowl.
  4. Shuck your oysters and toss them in the buttermilk mixture. Let them marinade for 30 minutes.
  5. After fries and oysters have soaked and marinated for the proper amount of time, heat oil in a large Dutch oven or cast-iron skillet. You will want about 2-3 inches of oil in the pan.
  6. Mix together the flour and Londonderry spice blend in another medium size bowl.
  7. Once oil has reached 325-350 degrees, fry your potatoes for 10-15 minutes. You may have to do this in batches to allow room for them to crisp. Take a slotted spoon or tongs and place them on a plate lined with paper towels.
  8. Toss with sea salt to your liking.
  9. Take your marinated oysters and toss them into the flour mixture. Make sure they are fully coated.
  10. Using the same oil as the fries, place 3-4 oysters in the hot oil and cook until crispy. 3-4 minutes total. Make sure not to crowd them.
  11. Place oysters on a paper towel lined tray to cool slightly.
  12. Plate your fries and oysters and enjoy!
  13. Serve with a yummy tartar or remoulade sauce.

Whole Roasted Chicken Recipe

Whole Roasted Chicken

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 young whole chicken
  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 lemon
  • 4 tablespoons of Londonderry Spice Rub
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced
  • 3-4 large carrots, chopped
  • 1.5 lbs. red creamer potatoes, halved

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. and adjust your oven rack so chicken will sit in the center
  2. Remove the neck and giblets from the inside of the chicken, pat entire chicken down with paper towels
  3. In a small bowl take the softened butter, zest from the lemon, and Londonderry Spice Rub and mix well
  4. Rub the butter mixture all over the outside of the chicken and inside the cavity until evenly coated
  5. Use your fingers to loosen and lift the skin above the breasts (on the top of the chicken) and smooth some of the butter mixture underneath
  6. Cut the lemon in half and place inside of chicken
  7. Add the onions, carrots, and potatoes to the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Drizzle a little olive oil over the veggies, season them with salt and pepper, and toss to coat
  8. Place the chicken on top and tie the legs together with kitchen twine (not required)
  9. Roast the chicken uncovered, at 450 degrees F. for 10-15 minutes. 
  10. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and roast for 20 minutes per pound (or until internal temperature reaches about 165 degrees) 
  11. Remove chicken from the oven and cover with foil. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before carving
  12. Serve with the cooked vegetables at the bottom of the pan

NOTES

  • Check your chicken halfway through to make sure it is not over-browning. If so, just place a piece of tin foil on top of baking dish.
  • You can use the pan drippings to make a gravy! Just pour fat into a small pot and add flour, butter, and salt and pepper. Viola!
  • Serve with steamed broccoli or green beans to have a highly nutritious and delicious meal!

Londonderry Pan-Seared Rockfish

Londonderry Pan-Seared Rockfish

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 Rockfish filets (approx. 6oz each, local if you can get it)
  • Londonderry’s Spice Rub
  • 3 Tbsp butter
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

DIRECTIONS

  1. Clean rockfish or buy pre-done fillets. Place fish on paper towels and pat dry.
  2. Melt butter and olive oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add fish to the skillet and sprinkle with Londonderry’s Spice Rub.
  3. Cook without turning about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown.
  4. Carefully turn the fish to the other side and add more Spice Rub. While the fish is cooking, spoon some of the melted butter over top. Cook another 3-4 minutes; fish will flake easily.
