Number Of Ingredients 13

6 medium-to-large mirlitons
1 egg, beaten
3 tablespoons oil or butter or bacon grease
Salt and pepper to taste
1 medium white onion, chopped
3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
2/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
1 pound raw shrimp, peeled

1/2 pound ham, diced
1/2 cup celery, minced
Dash Tabasco
1/4 cup parsley, minced

  • Boil mirlitons until tender, cut in half and remove seeds. Scoop out inside of mirlitons leaving enough flesh to keep shell intact. In a large heavy skillet, heat oil or bacon grease. Sauté onions, garlic and celery until soft. Add shrimp and ham. Cook 10 minutes. Remove excess water from mirliton and mash. Add all remaining ingredients except 1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I also like to add some chopped vegetables to the stuffing.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my stuffed mirlitons didn't turn out as well as I hoped. I think I might have overcooked them.

This dish was a lot of work, but it was worth it. The stuffed mirlitons were beautiful and delicious.

The stuffing was delicious, but I found the mirlitons to be a bit bland. I think next time I'll try roasting them before stuffing them.
