1st stop Whole Foods in Pasadena. It's not usually our market of choice, but we wanted a wide variety of fresh fish options and something different. It turned out to be a perfect choice.
Here's what we bought! The fish was very reasonable... infact we ended up buying 2 pieces for each of us (Opakapaka Fillet & Red Snapper). The wine was great (2006 Juan Gil Jumilla Red Wine). We also picked up some asparagus...Eric's a big fan.
No Fish meal is complete without the most awesome instant white rice from Trader Joes! I stock pile it in our freezer. The rice comes in little pouches that you cut a slit in and pop the bag in the microwave for 3 minute...and voila you have some fresh, yummy Thai Jasmine Rice!
Here we are are prepping for our meal! (I love how our kitchen looks in pics...silly but true)
This is the Lemon-Oil Sauce recipe from Allrecipes.com (Check out the website it has a endless amount of recipes!)
Once we mixed the sauce we poured it on the fish, before it went on the BBQ. The fish only took about 10 mins in the "Q", I was surprised as to how quickly and thoroughly they cooked.
We had a crisp Romaine Salad with Feta Cheese and Italian Dressing...simple but oh-so-good.
We can't forget our asparugus. :-) We added some olive oil, freshly grated ginger (Eric's idea), and garlic. Put in oven @ 300 degrees and for about 20 minutes.
Our Spring cooking was fun and well worth it, we were able to spend some quality time together and enjoy a fab meal together. We make a good team!
Our dessert was a mango fruit bar from Whole Foods. Very refreshing after such a warm day.
