From our KLTV cookbook called "Proud of East Texas," (what else?) comes a recipe for a quick seafood dinner.

The recipe was submitted in the 1998 by Diana Conine of Tyler. It sounds pretty simple, delicious, and quick:

Seafood Stroganoff:

1 pound shrimp, crawfish tails, or scallops (or a combination)
1 bunch of green onions, sliced (tops included)
1 stick of butter (ed. note: or a healthy Omega-3 butter blend, like Smart Balance)
4 TBS flour
2 TBS garlic powder (or to taste)
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced (ed. note: you can buy these pre-sliced to save time)
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 tsp creole seasoning (any brand you like)
1/2 cup vermouth (optional, but definitely adds better flavor) (ed. note: white wine could be substituted if no vermouth on hand)
1 16 oz. carton of sour cream. (ed. note: light sour cream will cut fat and calories and still be creamy and delicious!)

Peel and devein shrimp, if necessary.

SMITH COUNTY, TX (KLTV)- Lt. Tony Dana of the Smith County Sheriff's Department said three sex offenders were arrested during a bi-annual Smith County compliancy sweep.

Authorities said they arrested two sex offenders for nonpayment of child support and one was arrested for possession of a firearm.

Dana said authorities were deployed last Friday at 6 a.m. within the county to visit sex offenders' residences.

According to authorities, there are 264 registered sex offenders outside the city limits in Smith County.

The sweep revealed that 192 of those offenders are in compliance, 16 have non-compliance issues, and 46 could not be contacted at their residencies. Eight of the 264 sex offenders were already in custody for noncompliance issues.
