Fish with Thai Green Curry

Fish with Thai Green Curry by John Spottiswood

This was a surprisingly excellent dish. The mixture of green curry, fish, and corn just seemed odd to me, but I had to try it. The result is delicious and a bit different from anything I've had before, The corn blends in wonderfully. We served this over a 50-50 mixture of brown and white jasmine rice. Delicious!

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.

Shrimp and Tofu with Bok Choy

Shrimp and Tofu with Bok Choy by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a tasty, Chinese inspired dish that our family loved. Ladle it over brown or jasmine rice on a cool evening. My recipe has double the tofu of the original recipe, and I will probably use even more tofu, and less shrimp, the next time around. Feel free to adjust the quantity of each based on your tastes.

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…

Black Bean Salmon

Black Bean Salmon by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a quick, easy to make, and really delicious salmon. If you ordered it at a fancy asian restaurant, you would not be disappointed.. The black bean sauces is rich and more flavorful than most. It goes extremely well with salmon, but you could also try this with other types of fish like sea bass, halibut, or cod.

Shrimp Creole

Shrimp Creole by John Spottiswood

This isn't all that fancy or exotic, but it's a wonderfully rich and fully flavored. If you want greater authenticity, you can substitute butter where I have used olive oil. I love butter, but try to control it for health reasons. It's delicious as I have made it, so no need to add the extra butter in my opinion.

Spaghetti with Clam and Tomato sauce

Spaghetti with Clam and Tomato sauce by John Spottiswood

This is one of my favorite last minute, throw together pastas. I generally use canned clams and canned Italian plum tomatoes (except in the summer/fall when wonderful fresh roma tomatoes are available), so this requires only a trip to the pantry. Our kids enjoy this as well. Recommended pasta: Spaghettini, thin spaghetti, takes to…

Shrimp in Green Garlic Sauce

Shrimp in Green Garlic Sauce by John Spottiswood

Wow, this is a really powerful and delicious dish. If you are looking for subtle flavors, search elsewhere. But if you're in the mood for a garlicky, "must dip my bread in every last bit of that sauce", type of dish, you cannot beat this. I'll admit our kids are not normal, but all four of them downed these shrimp and were dipping…

FRIED SHRIMP DONBURI (Ebi Fry Don buri)

FRIED SHRIMP DONBURI (Ebi Fry Don buri) by John Spottiswood

You can make this dish with any type of Japanese fried meat (tonkatsu-fried pork, chicken-katsu, shrimp-katsu, etc.) Katsu is easy to make in large batches. So if you end up with leftover fried meat, you can use it the next day to make this delicious Donburi. Of course, this is good with freshly made katsu too. When I lived in…

Moroccan Broiled Fish Skewers or Fillets

Moroccan Broiled Fish Skewers or Fillets by John Spottiswood

This is a tasty Moroccan dish that you are sure to love. Serve it over salad, cous cous, bulgar pilaf, or white or brown rice. We've used thick white fish but also thinner fish like catfish or tilapia when they are more reasonable. You can't skewer them, but you can broil the whole fillet (see picture). It also works with salmon…

Grilled Salmon with Basil Cream Sauce

Grilled Salmon with Basil Cream Sauce by John Spottiswood

Grilled salmon goes very well with lemon and basil. This cream sauce makes an interesting and attractive dish to serve for family or for guests. Our kids went back for more sauce. They love pesto on pizza and pasta, and this has a similar, though milder, flavor.

Fish with Spice Rub and Lemony Rice

Fish with Spice Rub and Lemony Rice by Nancy Miyasaki

This is an amazingly easy and delicious recipe. The spice rub would be yummy on just about anything I think. I really liked the way the fish cooks by steaming on top of the rice. First, it makes the dish even easier, it saves energy, and it won't heat up your house as much in the summer. More importantly, the fish just melts in…
