Does anybody have any recipes that would be good for a romantic dinner for two?

Question

Something that's not too fattening,but still tastes good>

Answer 1

THe breast of a chicken -if you remove the bone -has the form of a heart! Place it in a baking pan, sprinkle with salt and oregano and cover with bacon strings. Just bake it in a moderate oven or you can do the same on a hot platter. Serve it hot, heart shaped and decorate with steamed baby vegetables.
Really sweet!

Answer 2

Shrimp Scampi
It's easy to make, delicious and a lovely romantic meal.

Use large uncooked shrimp (sold in bags frozen at the market), peel them.

Melt some butter in a skillet and thin it out with a little olive oil if you like. You can also thin it out with white wine if you prefer. Taste test for the perfect balance.

Saute you shrimp in the sauce until pink. Don't over cook them.

Meanwhile have your pasta cooking (angel hair is my favorite)
When done, drain well and put it into a nice serving bowl. Drizzle the juice of 1/2 fresh lemon over the pasta. Add the shrimp and sauce, season with salt and white pepper or black if that's what you have and toss to coat everything.

Now to pretty it up, sprinkle it with chopped parsely. Have shredded parmesan on the side and a nice baguette sliced to soak up some of the sauce.

Don't forget the wine. Enjoy yourselves.
