I fixed tonight’s supper on a healthier note; wild caught
sockeye salmon over rice and a Brussels sprout salad. The salad I adapted from
a recipe I got from attending a cooking school at Bon Ami Gabi restaurant, in
Las Vegas.
The salmon was frozen skin on filets I had thawed out. I
marinated the salmon with Lawry’s teriyaki with pineapple for 30 minutes. The
rice was Zatarain’s New Orleans style yellow rice done in my rice cooker.
I made up the vinaigrette, cleaned and sliced the Brussels
sprouts and mixed them about 2 hours before supper. I fried up the bacon and
saved in the fridge. I found some salad topping that was pomegranate flavored
dried cranberries and sugar coated walnuts so I didn’t have to roast walnuts.
After getting the salad ready I worked a couple hours
staining the tile grout in our foyer. That’s major work for this ole man down
on my hands and knees. I wanted to do the salmon on my new Weber gas grill but
we were getting some sprinkles and I was tired so I did the salmon in a Lodge
steel skillet stovetop. I sprinkled on some Penzey’s Fox Point seasoning and did
them in some olive oil for 6 minutes skin side down, and then I turned for 3
minutes. I removed the skin and flipped back for a minute before serving.
The wife and I both enjoyed this meal. For healthier I think
this is my favorite meal, fish over rice and a good salad. If you want
healthier yet omit the bacon on the salad; but it’s so good!
