BLOODY MARY BITES APPETIZERS RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add oil and onions and saute 5 minutes. Add vodka and reduce by 1/2. Add Worcestershire, hot sauce, tomato sauce and horseradish. Stir to combine the dipping sauce and return the sauce to a bubble. Add salt and pepper and adjust seasonings.
• Heat nonstick skillet over high heat. Coat meat bites lightly in oil. Season with steak seasoning blend or salt and pepper, to taste. Cook the meat until caramelized all over, about 2 minutes on each side. Transfer dipping sauce to a small dish and place at the center of a serving platter. Surround the dip with meat bites and set several bamboo "stakes" or skewers along side meat.

Steps:

• Use a toothpick to poke 4 holes in each grape tomato. Put them into a jar or shallow bowl that can be covered while the tomatoes marinate.
• Add the vodka, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce, make sure tomatoes are covered and refrigerate. Let marinate overnight but no longer than 24 hours.
• When ready to serve, remove the tomatoes from the liquid and put into a serving bowl, leave just a little liquid in the bottom to keep the tomatoes slightly moist on the bottom.
• In another small dish combine the lemon pepper and celery salt.
• Serve with toothpicks and celery. Dip the tomatoes into the salt mixture. Enjoy! I recommend doubling this recipe because they will be gone in a flash!
