Spring is here! Which means sunny days and lighter fare. Slowly but surely saisons are replacing stouts in my fridge and salads are replacing hearty stews for dinner. It also means this pup will spent her days lying in the sun (when not lying at my feet in the kitchen waiting for a scrap or two).
This year I’m determined to try my hand at more seafood recipes. After looking back through past posts I realized there’s a lack of them in my recipe archive! But there’s a reason for that.. seafood frightens me. My parents never ate fish and, as a result, I never did either. It’s a hard thing to learn to like when you don’t grow up with it. Lucky for me, tastes change. If they didn’t, I would be on a macaroni and cheese diet (with a chicken finger or two thrown in to change it up once in awhile).
The first seafood recipe this year: halibut. Tangerine and coriander accent the fillet without overpowering and pistachios add a bit of crunch. It’s the type of recipe I’ll return to again and again, particularly as a quick and satisfying weeknight meal.
