The Mothership

I would categorize this meal as easy enough. From beginning to prep ingredients to eat in 45 minutes the meal was ready to eat. It was one pot and a chopping board and a knife. Prep ingredients before cooking or it will take longer. I didn’t do many measurements of ingredients. Definitely a meal I will make again.  Ingredients: 4 salmon steaks, patted dry Salt Pepper Paprika Sugar Paprika Garlic powder 1/2 yellow onion, chopped 3-5 garlic cloves, peeled & minced 1/2 container Cherry tomatoes, halved Olive oil/avocado oil 1 Tbsp butter 1 cup dry orzo 1tsp dried thyme 3 cups chicken broth 5oz of baby spinach Juice from 1/2 lemon 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Red chili flakes Recipe: Prep fish by patting dry. I laid the steaks on wax paper and then sprinkled with all the spices one at a time. I only gave a very small sprinkle of sugar.  Chop the onion and garlic and set aside. If you are adding tomatoes also set that aside.  Heat oil and butter in a large pan or skillet...

I’m sure this is super basic for a lot of you. But this was one of the first meals I perfected as a newlywed...so many moons ago. It’s super easy, no chopping besides garlic (or not if you decide to do powder). I prepared the fish in about 5 minutes, took a shower while it baked, and then sautéed the spinach in 5. This is perfect for a quick to the table dinner. Ingredients : 1&1/2 lbs. of Salmon (or steelhead trout, tilapia, or halibut) Avocado oil (or whatever oil you cook with) Lemon pepper 2 garlic cloves Salt 1 container of fresh spinach (about 6oz) 1/2 lemon Red pepper flakes Sea Salt Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Place fish in a oven safe dish. Spread oil (about a tablespoon) over the top of the fish.  Sprinkle 1 minced clove, lemon pepper, and salt over the top of the fish.  Bake for 12 minutes (or until fish flakes). Let sit for one minute.  Last 5 minutes of fish cooking, heat up 1 tablespoon of oil over medium- low heat....
