Pan-Seared Tuna with Avocado

Pan-Seared Tuna with Avocado by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious recipe that we adapted from one by Tyler Florence. The combination of asian flavors explodes in your mouth but doesn't overwhelm the flavor of the tuna and avocado. It's really a fantastic combination and takes only a few minutes to prepare if you make the sauce in advance. This could be served as an appetizer or…

CEVICHE! ~ Costa Rican Style by Amos Miller

My buddy, Ed, of Puerto Rican descent, spent his time in the Air Force in Central and South America. Ed's favorite dish: ceviche! He tells endless tales of trying ceviche, which is seafoods 'cooked' in nothing but citrus juice.

Spanish Scallops

Spanish Scallops by Nancy Miyasaki

These are amazingly rich and tasty. I served these as an entree, but I think they would make an extremely good appetizer too. Make sure to serve with some crusty artisan bread for dipping in the Romesco Sauce.

Citrus Marinated Bay Scallops and Roasted Red Pepper

Citrus Marinated Bay Scallops and Roasted Red Pepper by Cecelia Heer

This is an adapted recipe from Jean-Georges Vongerichten that was featured in the March 2002 issue of “Food & Wine.” The original recipe called for sea scallops, cut into several pieces. I like to use bay scallops, which are very tiny and have a sweet and more succulent meat than that of the sea scallop. As was pictured in the…

Catfish «en meurette»

Catfish «en meurette» by Frank Fariello

The term «en meurette» refers to a dish that has been braised in a particularly delicious red wine sauce from the Burgundy region of France. Probably the best known of these dishes is oeufs en meurette, made from poached eggs. But even tastier, in my opinion, is fish made this way. The firm-fleshed monkfish (lotte in French) lends…
