A simple yet flavorful way to reheat shellfish, ensuring it remains tender and delicious.
Prepare the shellfish by thawing it completely if frozen, then rinsing and patting it dry.
Ensure the shellfish is fully thawed to avoid uneven reheating.
For steaming, add water to a large pot and bring it to a boil. Place the shellfish in a steaming rack and lower it into the pot. Cover and steam for the appropriate time based on the type of shellfish.
Do not let the shellfish touch the water to maintain its texture.
For oven reheating, preheat the oven to 400°F. Wrap the shellfish in foil, creating a tent, and place it in the oven for 20 minutes.
The foil tent helps retain moisture and prevents drying out.
Melt the butter and mix it with chopped parsley. Brush this mixture over the reheated shellfish before serving.
Use fresh herbs for a vibrant flavor.
Serve the reheated shellfish with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Pair with a fresh salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
