    ...and now for the meal that brought me here to the foodies thread in the first place.... SALMON! :hungry:

    rinse and pat dry salmon filet, drizzle a teaspoon of EVOO on tinfoil, place filet on tin foil skin side down
    [​IMG]

    add more EVOO, black pepper, sea salt, thyme, rosemary (a pinch or two of each will do, I never measure anything so :notsure: ) and two fresh lemon slices on top
    [​IMG]

    fold up tinfoil to make a loose pouch around the filet, grill @ 400* to 450* for about 20 minutes. you could bake it in the oven too - i just prefer to cook it on the grill to avoid the fishy smell in the house. if you've cooked it properly the skin should come off fairly easily - place it skin side up on the plate and scrap the skin away. save the lemon slices to squeeze the remaining juice over the filet, discard the tin foil, skin and oil

    Here's the finished product with some wild rice and asparagus
    [​IMG]

    COOK'S NOTE: I recommend only using wild Alaskan salmon...NEVER, EVER buy farmed fish :puke:

    Lisa I dont know how you made the asparagus but if you put a little extra virgin olive oil with salt and pepper right on the grill you will love it!!!

    back to bone stock.
    i found that blanching the asparagus first..and then drizzling with olive oil and salt..and THEN putting it on the grill is way better. you get tiny grill marks and the stalks dont wrinkle and shrivel from the heat.

    sharing? :hungry:

    don't put the salt on too soon and the stalks won't shrivel. just put the salt on right at the end

    Everything looks good. Tonight it is surf and turf. Porterhouse with shrimp cocktail with prosciutto wrapped asparagus. Hope it all comes out good. Last night we had lobster.

    No pics of lastnight. The wife picked them up and had them steamed. All I was thinking about yesterday was either steaming them or boiling them. She surprised me and brought them back steamed. Well the guy at the seafood counter must have just started. He over steamed all 4 of them and they were not that good. We werent happy at all.

    Actually to make things worse with the steamed lobster he put raw fresh shrimp in the same bag with the lobster. I havent looked at them yet bc we are going to make them tonight but if they are even slightly cooked they are going back!!!!! Again we were not happy. This certain grocery store is like 2 years old and it is super clean and usually a good store. This is the worst experience I have had with any grocery store in a while!!!!
