Simplicity is the theme for this week's recipe inspiration. These recipes featuring wild-caught seafood are easy enough for a beginner to make, but inspired enough to help lift anyone out of a mid-winter recipe rut. This week's recipe also complement wine pairing suggestions from MX Specialist Stephen Williams, which you can find in a WAC chat with him about food and family.
Here’s what to cook this week:
For a Quick Bite
Rockfish thaws quickly, cooks quickly, and with a thinner cutlet-like profile, is an ideal canvas for a crispy panko crust. Pair this recipe for a Rockfish Milanese with a wedge of lemon and a big pile of arugula.
For a When You're Feeling Fancy
This recipe for Pan-Fried Salmon and Slaw is simple enough to make for a weeknight meal, but the addition of pickled mustard seeds sets it apart from your usual dinner, elevating a classic pan-seared fillet of salmon with a textural topping.
For a Cozy Night In
The bright Mediterranean flavors of Pacific Cod en Papillote with Cherry Tomatoes, Oregano, and Lemon become fragrant and complex when steamed in parchment. It's a quick and easy recipe to make when you're craving a comforting weeknight meal.
