Of course, its the life of a chef, that I’m never home to spend time with my wife for Valentine’s Day.  This year, I decided to surprise her with dinner the day after.

I made Bacon-Wrapped Colossal Shrimp, stuffed with a thin slice of Jalepeno for some kick.

I couldn’t help myself with the “Day After Valentine’s Day” sale at the grocery store & picked up the Lobster.  It is topped with a garlic butter sauce, and presented beautifully.

Originally, I had planned to serve the shrimp with Steel-Head Trout. So I went ahead and prepared it.

The trout is topped with a Tropical salsa consisting of Tomato, Avacado, Mango & Kiwi.

On the side, fresh steamed broccoli & white rice.

For desert, we picked up some chocolate-covered strawberries dipped in coconut, oreos, peanut butter & cinnoman. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of those, because we ate them all!

Happy Valentine’s Day!
