Get Grilling: Grilled Margarita Shrimp...Grilled Margarita Shrimp Watch Channel 10's News at 4pm every Tuesday for a new DinnerDone recipe each week. We’ll Need:
To Prepare: Prepare Margarita marinade by combining tequila, honey, fruit juices, red onion and jalapenos in a glass bowl or a Ziploc bag. Add shrimp to marinade and refrigerate two hours. Place shrimp on skewers, reserving marinade. Brush shrimp with oil and sprinkle evenly with salt. Grill over medium-high heat, about 3 minutes on each side until shrimp are firm opaque throughout. Be careful not to overcook – actual time will depend on size of shrimp that you use and how hot your grill is! (Note: You can also pan fry these shrimp if you prefer!) In a small pan over medium-high heat, add reserved marinade. Simmer until marinade has reduced by half. Spoon sauce over shrimp and sprinkle with cilantro. Serving Suggestion: Grill pineapple slices, and serve shrimp and pineapple over white rice.

** You can use a leaner beef if you prefer. Chuck provides a juicier burger and is excellent to use when grilling burgers. First let’s get our filling started. In a skillet over medium heat, add 2 tbls butter, garlic and onion. Saute 2 minutes and add mushrooms and a splash of white wine. Continue sautéing until the liquid cooks off and the filling mix is dry. Set aside. Then we’ll prepare a simple Basil Mayo by mixing a good jarred basil pesto with mayonnaise, cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Now, let’s prepare our burgers by adding salt, pepper and Worcestershire to the beef and mixing, being careful not to overwork the meat as that can make it tough. Divide the seasoned beef into six equal balls. With each ball make two thin patties. Put equal portions of mushroom filling and bleu cheese over six patties and top with the remaining six patties. Pinch edges to seal filling inside of burgers and flatten. Grill over medium heat until burgers are done. Serve burgers with fresh baked rolls, Basil Mayo and any toppings you’d like! Get creative! Here are some other ideas for delicious filling choices:
And, don’t forget the mayo. Check out the selection of good jarred prepared pestos and tapenades at your local market. Add them to an equal part of mayo and you can dress up burgers, sandwiches…anything! Easy Grilling: Ideas from our May MenuEasy Grilling: Ideas from our May Menu

Our counters are standard kitchen-counter sized.

Dinner Done is a working kitchen. It is up to you to ensure your child is with you at all times and is properly supervised. As always, please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions. We hope to see you in the kitchen soon! Dinner Done Named Best of Washington!The prestigious Washingtonian names Dinner Done as Best of Washington. In a comparison of six professional kitchens, Dinner Done was awarded top honors - 4 stars! “I wanted to steal the recipes and run away with the chef!” jokes Goldfarb. At Dinner Done, ingredients were fresh—“veggies were recently chopped and looked great”—and it was hard to choose among the appealing recipes. The meals turned out to be as good as they sounded: Chicken Marengo “tasted and smelled like homemade,” and pork loin with chipotle sauce was a hit with her family.
