Hmmmm...

Well... I tried a new recipe tonight. It was called Eli's Asian Salmon. There were very mixed reviews. I think what I will do is give you the recipe first and then talk about it.
I took this recipe from an episode of Barefoot Contessa.
Eli's Asian Salmon
2 1/4 lbs center cut fillet salmon, 1 1/2 inches thick
1 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 T. oyster sauce
1 T. fish sauce
1 T. dark sesame oil
1 1/2 t. chili paste
1/2 cup green onions, sliced
2 T. minced garlic
2 T. fresh grated ginger
1 1/2 cups panko, japanese breadcrumbs

Line an 8 x 12" baking dish with foil. Place salmon in the pan.
In a mixing bowl combine all ingredients except salmon and panko. Pour 1/3 of the mixture over salmon. Sprinkle panko evenly over the salmon, then pour rest of the marinade over top, soaking the panko. Set aside for 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Roast 18-20 minutes to 120 degrees. Remove and wrap tightly with foil for 15 minutes.
I served this with fresh steamed green beans and roasted red potatoes.
It was good. My kids weren't crazy about the topping, but thought it was good once they scraped it off. I sort of agreed with them, I thought it to be a little strong... Frenchie and I discussed what could be done differently and I am sure that we will try it again.
Stay tuned for tomorrow, it will either be a soy based casserole or a veggie lasagna... Who knows! We'll see what feeling hits me tomorrow! Send me your favorite fish recipes!
