**Homecooked Christmas Lunch with Family**
For starters, I made a warm and comforting seafood chowder with Argentinian red shrimp, blue swimmer crab, chile mussels, and white corn, paired with homemade overnight thyme focaccia. The chowder was prepared using clam stock and grouper fish head/bones.
The main course featured pan-seared grouper with a lemon butter dill sauce, served alongside brown butter Brussels sprouts topped with Parmigiano Reggiano and a refreshing green mango salad dressed with lime juice, fish sauce, palm sugar.
Dessert was a classic sticky date pecan tart.
