This was the best fish I have ever made. The marinade was absolutely perfect for it. I can imagine using this marinade again and again with all kinds of different meats. Broiling is my favorite way to prepare fish. It takes just minutes and (as long as I watch it closely!) it almost always turns out well. I tried something new this time and left the oven door open while it was broiling. I read somewhere that it would result in a more grilled...
This is the finale to the Balsamic Butter Sauce meal. Why call it a meal based on that? Well, because I covered every single thing on my plate with this lovely Balsamic Butter Sauce right before serving the meal. Yes, it really was that good. The original recipe called for tilapia. However, we are huge fans of ono lately, so I used that instead. It was very good. I think in this instance though, the tilapia might have been even...
Haddock fillets coated with a toasted coconut crust made for an excellent and easy weeknight meal. I served the fish with some roasted vegetables and it was a delicious meal. I found this recipe at A Little Nosh (link no longer available) and was thrilled with my luck for the Secret Recipe Club post this month. If you aren’t normally a fan of fish, haddock is great one to try. The flavor is mild and the fish is firm and not...
If you are with me on Facebook, then you already know how excited I am this week. A week long vacation for my husband, plus a trip to Alaska, means that I now have just under 100 pounds of wild caught halibut and wild red/sockeye salmon in my freezer. I am so happy with the abundance that I have already filled several notebook pages with cooking ideas! My friend Sue’s Black Bean, Corn, and Mango Salsa caught my eye and I...
Creamy scrambled eggs with smoked salmon turned out to be an absolutely delicious way to start the day. We’ve been eating the smoked salmon that my husband brought back from Alaska every single day, as a snack or with breakfast lunch or dinner, it is fantastic all by itself. I have been looking forward to finally trying it in our eggs. My boys declared these the most delicious eggs they have ever tasted and they have already requested them...
Salmon marinated in smoky chipotle and tart citrus is quickly broiled for an easy weeknight dinner. With the abundance of fish at my fingertips after Sean’s trip to Alaska, I found myself constantly looking for new ideas and recipes to try. I made this recipe for the first time almost three years ago when I stumbled across it on Aggie’s Kitchen and the salmon was even better than I expected. With Sean planning another trip to Alaska in...
What’s not to love about Beer Battered Halibut? Tender flaking fish with a thin beer batter crust, served with Creamy Dill Sauce and the Raw Corn and Zucchini Salad made a delicious dinner this week. This Beer Battered Fish Recipe was so good I couldn’t resist sharing right away. Beer Battered Halibut My family has been enjoying halibut and salmon almost every week lately, ever since Sean’s fishing trip to Alaska....
The smokiness of the salmon combines perfectly with the tangy horseradish sauce and the warm skillet of potatoes and eggs. This dish was immediately bumped to the top of our favorites list. I am going to be a very sad girl when the drawers of smoked salmon in my refrigerator and freezer are empty! To say this was delicious really doesn’t even describe it. The entire table cleaned their plates within minutes and two of my boys asked for more....
Spicy Orange Garlic Shrimp has been our favorite shrimp recipe for so long now; I haven’t made a different shrimp dish in years. This is a very simple recipe that packs a lot of awesome flavor. Every time I crave shrimp and save a new recipe to try, I change my mind at the last minute and make this instead. It really is fantastic. My entire family loves this shrimp. My kids have actually been known to jump up and down with excitement when...
Declared “the best fish dinner ever” by my boys; this baked Halibut with a Pine Nut Crust is one of my favorite meals too. The first time I made this recipe, one of my boys happily ate the crust first and then wondered aloud if we could have a meal of nothing but the topping because it was so delicious. Serve this Pine Nut Crusted Halibut with Rice Pilaf , Crispy Brussels Sprouts, Hasselback...
