at the chef's table

Swordfish tonight! After a visit to the fish counter at wegman's and then a look at the frozen selection, we went with the fresh, product of the USA, swordfish steak. A little bit of a tough decision, we went back and forth with a couple different fishies, even eyeing up the suitcase of king crab legs. But the price tag ($99.99) put the kah-bosh on that. Back at home, Chef sauteed the fish with a lemon caper butter sauce with shallots & a hit of white wine and parsley. Tasty! On the side, we had a nice helping of roasted fingerling taters and roasted brussel sprouts (sorry dad, i like brussel sprouts). Yum as well! A nice salad (eaten after the mains, always) finished up the meal. I love My Chef's salad creating vision, a real highlight of every meal. It's like I finish the meal each night a little sad that its over and then I remember there is still a salad to devour! Tonight's specialty was a baby lettuce base with some green cabbage chops, avocado, fresh home-sprouted sprout mix, shallots, for-real artichokes, ricotta salata pieces, and a coating of pecorino. Crispy, crunchy, fresh & creamy!
