Asian Salmon on Spinach - Ina Garten Fridays

I believe this is the fourth month of Ina Garten Fridays, started by the lovely and vivacious Alyce from More Time at the Table.  We link, once a month, on the first Friday of the month.  This month, we are making appetizers, September is side dishes, October is main and November is dessert.  If you would like to join us, please contact Alyce at  More Time at the Table.

 Welcome to out newest member, Peggy from Pantry Revisited.  Go on over and say, "Hello!"

 I decided to make salmon and cut the steaks into smaller pieces, put them on delicious sesame spinach and served with a flourish.  Delicious.

 Instead of grilling the salmon, I baked it and served it with some of the marinade.

 Asian Salmon - adapted from 2001, Barefoot Contessa Parties!,

Ingredients:

2 salmon steaks

For the marinade:

1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons  olive oil
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
Method:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cut  the salmon crosswise into 4 equal pieces. 

Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.

Place the salmon in a baking pan.  Discard the marinade the fish was sitting in.

Bake for 15 - 20 minutes.

Place cooked spinach on a plate. Put salmon on top of mound of spinach and sprinkle some of the marinade over the fish.  Serve on individual plates and do enjoy every bite.
Check out what other members made this month.  Ladies, please forgive me if I left anyone out.  Let me know and I will add you to the list.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Image
Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
