Big Wheel Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Ok, back on track. Tonight I had to throw something together for a couple of surprise guests: Appetizer: a sort of bruschetta with watercress, tuna packed in oil, and grated romano cheese atop toasted baguette slices Grandma's zucchini soup recipe Mixed greens with oil and vinegar This fish recipe, minus olives, which I didn't have Some Brazilian pastries I picked up earlier for dessert!

Peter Johnson Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Filet of white salmon (Yum!!!) simply done: Season the fish with salt & pepper Heat a smear of olive oil and some thin slices of garlic in a pan Slide the garlic out of the way Toss in the fish, skin down, sear for 2 minutes Pour out the oil and garlic Toss pan under broiler for 7-8 minutes dill on top, a little lemon juice--YUM!!!

Catesta, It sounds like a little squirt of lemon might go very nicely on the finished product. Quote
Big Wheel Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 Tonight was my quick "weekday dinner." Nothing special, since I'm usually too lazy to cook much; mixed greens with some of my grandma's garlic vinagrette and grated romano, plus some rice with homemade kimchi stirred in. Nothing required any preparation except for the rice. Quote
