As mentioned in the last post, Bev is gone so Cindy and I are having our twice/year seafood-a-thon and it began with the Greek Salmon in the previous post. We had 1½ lbs. of fish left over and she turned them into Salmon patties using the recipe from “Natasha’s Kitchen” while we had mid-March snow showers when a cold front went through.
So, it’s that time again when Bev and Pat head off to Sint Maarten ( Caribbean Island) for a couple of weeks at Pat's timeshare and Cindy and I are dog sitting and eating fish and first up was Greek Salmon using our go-to recipe. And while thinking about what to have with it, the same day up pops the recipe for Best Italian Salad Recipe (Restaurant-Style) from the “Ask Chef Dennis” blog. I did the salmon and Cindy made the salad and followed the recipe as written but used Great Northern Beans and omitted the pepperoncini.
I got this recipe for Crab and Shrimp Casserole on Facebook some time ago and I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to make it which finally came about. It was just printed on Facebook without a link to another site.
When I saw the recipe for Ultimate Chicken And Dumplings on the “Serious Eats” blog, I knew I wanted to make it. But after making the best chicken noodle soup we’ve ever had, I decided to use it for the broth then just substitute the dumplings for the noodles. I won’t reprint the broth or baked chicken recipe here but it can be found by clicking on the above link. The one difference is that I removed the veggies from the broth. For the dumplings, I doubled the ingredient amounts. Sorry about the less than great pics.
Back in early December I made Sablefish with Mustard Cream Sauce for our seafood-a-thon while Bev was in Florida and we thought it was so good that I wanted Bev to try it. But this post is really about the Tennessee Onions so you can read about the fish by clicking on this link and substituting crappie for sablefish and doubling the sauce amount.
Just as with friend, Kathy, I gave Cindy free lunches for her Christmas present and for her first one she chose First Watch in Maryville . First watch is a 600+ restaurant chain headquartered in Bradenton, FL and Cindy has been there many times and since I had been wanting to try it, I was pleased with her choice.
Bev had picked up a stuffed beef roast on a whim the other day and we decided to have it for our Friday card group.
I’ve cooked these in the past and the cheese always ran out so I first browned it in a skillet.
