Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb large frog legs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp essence , recipe follows
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup minced shallots
1 tbsp minced garlic
1/2 cup chopped fresh tomatoes, peeled and seeded
salt , to taste
freshly ground black pepper , to taste
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
2 1/2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp salt
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 tbsp dried thyme

Directions:

Cut the frog legs in half. Season both the legs and flour with Essence. In a large saute pan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Dredge the frog legs in the seasoned flour and shake to remove any excess flour. Add the frog legs to the hot pan and saute until golden, turning as needed, about 2 to 3 minutes each side. Add the shallots and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine, simmer for 2 minutes, then stir in the parsley. Remove from the heat and serve.
