Friday Food - Salmon

You know how there are those things that you feel like you ought to eat, but you have no idea what to do with them?

Well, Christopher and I crossed one of those lines tonight.

Salmon was on sale this week at one of our local grocery stores (a "buy one, get the second free" deal), so we decided that we could afford to buy it. And, tonight, we decided to see what we could do with it.

We found a recipe in one of our Nigella Lawson cookbooks, bought a few ingredients, and then set to it.

And then we realized that the ingredients were for a sauce, and not for a marinade. So we made the sauce but didn't marinate with it.

With that out of the way, we started the rice, dug out a grill pan (which I've owned for years and yet never used), and got things moving.

The salmon cooked in about a heartbeat. The rice turned out perfectly. The sauce was tangy and sweet.

And we still have the "get the second piece for free" piece.

Check us out. We're eating healthy.
