Ingredients

  • 4 burger size cod fillets

  • 4 burger buns

  • ½ c mayo

  • Juice of 1 small lime

  • 1 tsp garlic granules

  • ½ tsp chili flakes (more if you like!)

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • 3 tbsp sesame seeds

  • Drizzle of sesame oil

  • 1 c fresh cilantro, left whole, long stems removed

  • Mixed sprouts to garnish

  • Butter to fry the fish

  • 4 c salad greens

  • ½ c cherry tomatoes, halved

  • ¼ small onion, sliced thinly

  • Apple cider vinegar & olive oil to dress the salads

[the_ad id='10778']

Fresh & Delicous!

The flavors here are simple and so fresh. Best of all, they come together quickly and easily.

The mayo is tart yet smooth and has a little kick on the finish – a perfect compliment to the cod.

This may become your favorite “I need to get dinner on the table fast!’ recipe!

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Place the cod fillets into a bowl, drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with salt & pepper. Use your hands to massage the oil and seasoning evenly into the fillets. Place the sesame seeds on a small plate and press the cod fillets into the seeds on both sides. Coat both sides of the fish evenly with sesame seeds.

[the_ad id="10640"]
Step 2

Melt a tbsp of butter in a cast iron pan over medium to medium-high heat (not too hot or the fish will stick to the pan and fall apart…) and place the fish into the pan. Fry the fish on both sides until golden. This will take less than 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 3

While the fish is cooking pop the burger buns into a warm oven and whisk the lime juice, salt, garlic granules, and chili flakes into the mayo until well combined. Set aside.

Step 4

Share the salad greens over 4 plates, scatter onions and tomatoes over top, and drizzle with oil and vinegar. When the buns have warmed cut them in half and spread chili lime mayo generously over both halves. Share the fresh cilantro over the bottom portion of each bun and when the fish is done add a filet to each bun. Top the fish with mixed sprouts and a sprinkle of salt, and place the burgers, open-faced, alongside the salads, then sit down and enjoy the quick and tasty dinner that you have created!

Quinoa, Orange, Basil!

To accompany this divine, melt in your mouth salmon, we’ve prepared a light and citrusy quinoa salad with delightful textures and subtle flavors.

It’s juicy, crunchy, and tart with a hint of sweet. 

 

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Put the quinoa on and cook to package instructions (usually: 1 c quinoa to 1 ¾ c water and pinch of salt, bring to a boil then lower the heat and simmer for just under 15 minutes, until the quinoa is tender (but not disintegrating!) and the water has been absorbed.

[the_ad id="10640"]
Step 2

Mix the cinnamon, fennel, salt, pepper, chili flakes (optional), and sugar together in a small bowl. Set the oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment. Place the salmon filets on the baking sheet, skin side down, use a pastry brush to brush a little olive oil on the salmon, then share the seasoning mixture over top of the filets and use your fingers to gently distribute and rub the seasoning into the salmon, then set aside.

When the quinoa is done add a tablespoon of butter, mix well, then turn the quinoa onto a large plate to cool.

Once the quinoa is cooling pop the salmon into the oven for 15 – 20 minutes until cooked through to your preference. Use this time to prep the orange zest and oranges, green onion, basil, and mint.

Step 3

When the quinoa has cooled place it into a large bowl, drizzle the juice of the lemon wedge and the honey overtop and mix gently, then add the oranges, green onions, salt, pepper, basil, and mint and toss gently until evenly combined. Set aside until the salmon is done.

Step 4

When the salmon is done remove it from the oven and serve over 4 plates. Serve the quinoa alongside and scatter each salad with pistachios. Sprinkle a bit of orange zest over each serving of salmon, then sit down and enjoy the warm and delicious flavors of the masterpiece that you have created for dinner!

My favorite thing about this meal is the way the roasted cherry tomatoes burst in your mouth and create a little tidal wave of deliciousness!

The fresh basil? Mmmm is such a lovely compliment to the cod! Simple, delicious and delightfully fresh flavors throughout!

Step 1 

Set the oven to 400° and grease a medium sized oven proof baking dish with olive oil.

About this Recipe

By: Morgana Jane

If you’re in the mood for a little sweet, spicy, and simple – this delightful dinner fits the bill! Put the rice on, saute the scallops and sear the bok choy – then smother the works in Sweet Thai Chili Sauce. Perfect for a tasty mid-week sweet, spicy, savory treat!

[the_ad id="10686"]

Ingredients

  • 1 lb sea scallops (fresh or frozen: 40-60 per lb)

  • Sprinkle of salt, pepper, and garlic granules

  • Butter for sauté

  • 1 ¼ c jasmine rice

  • Butter for rice

  • 2 medium bok  choy, cut in half from bottom to top

Sweet Thai Chili Sauce

  • 1/4 c rice vinegar
  • 1/3 c water
  • ½ c natural sugar Note: if you substitute white sugar for natural sugar you will need less – refined white sugar is much sweeter than natural sugar.
  • ½ – 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1” fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp water

[the_ad id='10778']

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Put the rice on and cook to package instructions.

When the rice is about ½ cooked, melt a tablespoon or two of butter in a heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add the scallops when the pan is hot, season with salt, pepper, and garlic granules and sauté until cooked through and golden (5 – 10 minutes depending on the size of the scallops).

If the scallops give off an excessive amount of liquid turn the heat up for a few minutes to burn off some of the liquid, then pour the rest out of the pan and continue to sauté until the scallops are cooked through and golden then turn the heat to low to keep the scallops warm until you are ready to serve.

[the_ad id="10640"]
Step 2 

Start the sauce at the same time as you start the scallops. Place all sauce ingredients (except cornstarch & 1 tbsp water) into a small pot and bring to a boil stirring gently until the sugar has dissolved. Mix the cornstarch with 1 tbsp water and add it to the sauce. Keep the sauce on a gentle boil until it thickens (about 1 minute) then taste and adjust seasoning as required. When the sauce is to your liking remove from the heat and let it cool. It will thicken more as it cools.

Step 3 

Melt a bit of butter in another heavy skillet over medium high heat and place the bok choy into the pan cut side down and sear the cut side until it begins to char a bit. Turn the bok choy over and lower the heat to keep warm until ready to serve.

Step 4 

When everything is done mix a bit of butter into the rice then share the rice to one side of each of 4 plates. Share the scallops over top of the rice and ladle the Thai chili sauce over the scallops. Serve ½ of a bok choy beside the rice and scallops then sit down and enjoy the sweet, spicy flavors of the delicious dinner that you have prepared!

Westcoast Chowder with Cheese Scones

Ingredients
  • 1 tin (142g) baby clams, including the juice they are packed in
  • ½ lb salmon filet
  • ½ lb cod filet, pin bones tweezed out
  • 6 slices thick cut bacon, cut into bits
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 6 carrots, chopped
  • 2 sticks celery, chopped
  • 4 potatoes, peeled and chopped (1/2” cubes)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 15 cracks fresh black pepper
  • 1 tsp fennel seeds
  • 1 cup cream (or milk)
  • Prepare your fresh cheese scones while the chowder simmers. The recipe is right here!
  • Pressed for time or just not into it? Purchase 4 cheese scones (or your favorite savory scones)

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Place the bacon in a large, heavy Dutch oven over medium heat and crispify the bacon. You want the bacon fairly crisp for this application – nobody likes chunks of soft, wimpy bacon in their chowder… When the bacon is about ½ as crisp as you like, increase the heat to medium high, add the onions and sauté until the bacon is crisp (but not burnt) and the onions are beginning to brown on the edges. This process will take a good 10 minutes.

Step 2

When the bacon and onions are done remove the pot from the heat and set it on an angle (place a spoon under one side) and push the bacon and onions to the high side of the pan to allow the excess fat to drain away. Use a spoon to remove most of the rendered bacon fat, but do leave a little behind as it brings great flavor to the chowder.

Step 3

Once the excess fat has been removed add the potatoes and celery to the pot and sauté for 2 minutes, then increase the heat to high and add the carrots and the clams, along with the juice that the clams are packed in. Use the tin from the clams and add 2 tins full of water to the pot. Cover the pot and boil for 10 minutes, lower the heat to medium then add the 2 filet of fish (whole – they will break up as the chowder simmer and we will fish the salmon skin out later) to the pot and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes (as the cod simmers any pin bones that you missed with likely pop up and you can easily pull them out at this time).

Step 4

Once the chowder has simmered for 20 minutes add the cream and lower the heat. It is important to keep the chowder under a boil once the cream has been added to avoid separation. Add the fennel seeds and stir gently to break up the fish filets. Give the chowder a taste and correct the seasoning if required.

Step 5

Let the chowder simmer for as long as you like – the longer the better as the flavors have more time to mingle and get acquainted. That said, once it has been simmering for at least 30 minutes in total, it’s good to serve – so 10 minutes after you add the cream is just fine!

Step 6

When you are ready serve the chowder into soup plates along with a plate of warm cheese scones. I know you will love this family recipe that we have been perfecting and serving up for dinner for generations!

Baked Salmon in Coconut Lemon Cream with
Roasted Potatoes & Wild Mushrooms

Ingredients
  • 1 large filet of Salmon (enough to feed 4 peple)
  • 4 potatoes, cubed
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • Sprinkle of salt, pepper, and garlic granules
  • ¾ lb porcini mushrooms, roughly chopped (any kind of mushroom you like will be just fine)
  • Butter, salt, and garlic granules to sauté mushrooms,
  • 4 c salad greens
  • ½ c cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1/3 English Cucumber
  • Olive oil and Apple cider vinegar to dress the salads
  • 1 (400ml) tin coconut cream (or full fat coconut milk)
  • Splash of soy sauce
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 lemon, cut into wheels
  • Fresh tarragon, to garnish (optional)

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Set the oven to 350°and line a baking sheet with parchment.

Place the potatoes into a bowl, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic granules then pour the potatoes onto the baking tray and pop them into the oven for 50 – 60 minutes, until tender and golden on the edges. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the potato cubes. Set a timer for 30 minutes so that you can coordinate time for the salmon.

Step 2

Place the salmon filet on another baking tray lined with a piece of parchment that is large enough to wrap around the salmon like an envelope. Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper, arrange the lemon wheels on top, then close the parchment around the salmon and secure it with a metal clip. Set aside.

When the potatoes have been in the oven for 30 minutes pop the salmon into the oven with them. The salmon will take about 20 minutes to be done to perfection so mind your timing.

Step 3

Once the potatoes are in the oven get the mushrooms and sauce on the go. Melt a bit of butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot add the mushrooms, salt, and garlic granules and sauté until the mushrooms become golden on the edges then set the heat to low to keep the mushrooms warm until you serve.

Step 4

Place the coconut cream into a small pot over medium heat and mix until smooth. Add the lemon juice and a splash of soy sauce and mix well. When the sauce reaches a soft boil, set the heat to low to keep warm.  If the sauce is too thin bring the heat back up to a soft boil and whisk in a teaspoon or so of corn starch to thicken it up.

Step 5

When the salmon and potatoes are done share the greens over 4 plates. Scatter tomatoes and cucumber over top and drizzle with olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Unwrap the salmon and cut it into 4 pieces and serve alongside the salad. Add a serving of roasted potatoes to each plate and top the potatoes with sautéed mushrooms. Ladle a generous scoop of coconut lemon sauce over the salmon then sit down and enjoy the outstanding dinner that you have created!
