Quick'n'Easy Seafood Tarts

Recipe #31964 | 24 min | 10 min prep | add private note

These tarts are a cinch to make, and always a hit at a shower or any gathering. Substitute a vegetable for the seafood to make this recipe vegetarian. This dish also lets you stretch a small amount of seafood; for example, smoked salmon tarts are easier on the budget to put out than a whole platter of smoked salmon. These keep well in the fridge for a day or two, as well.

SERVES 12 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375F; arrange tart shells on a baking sheet.
  2. 2
    Into each shell, place 2 tsp of your favourite seafood; this recipe will also work with chopped ham, chopped asparagus etc, so use your imagination!
  3. 3
    In a small bowl, whisk together the cream, egg and mustard; I like to also add the fresh dill because I like its taste, but leave it out or substitute if you don't want dill.
  4. 4
    Distribute cream mixture evenly among the tarts and then bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until golden and"custard" is set.
  5. 5
    Serve warm or at room temperature.

Lennie, these appetizers were wonderful! We usually have an appy night at home on Sundays and these were a big hit. I used shrimp in them and my family devoured them. I'm going to double the recipe when I make them again. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    Hey Lennie, these were great and a cinch to make. I used 2" tart shells and put crab meat in them. Of course I could'nt wait to taste them and nearly burned my mouth off but they were really good. I've made them for my daughter's bridal shower and I just know they will be a big hit. Thanks for a "quick 'n easy" recipe!

    It is really a quick and easy recipe. I made them for our christmas dinner as appetizers and they were a big hit, but the only problem is people thought they were a little to strong with the fishy tast. I would recomend using only 1 tsp of seafood in each. Thanks, for a great, easy recipe. Raphaelle
