Seafood Stuffed Salmon

I made this salmon over a year ago and I didn't write anything down. So, no recipe. Fortunately, I did take lots of pictures to document this concoction. I remember it being very tasty!

I used Tony old phone to take these pictures, so they're not the best. I still thought it was worth sharing this one. Maybe it'll give you some crazy over stuffed ideas of your own.



This is a mirepoix with garlic, shrimp and orange zest.


Cooked white rice with saffron and sweet onions.


The shrimp and rice mixed together.



I cut a pocket in the salmon, making sure not to cut all the way through the fish.



Stuffed the rice mixture into the pocket.

Citrus Dressing

I made this dressing for a Chicken Strawberry Mango Salad, but it would be tasty on any greens. It reminds me of a warm summer day. What else would you want from a dressing? Or, for a tasty winter salad, try this citrus vin on my Roasted Sweet Potato and Arugula Salad.

1 Orange
1 Lime
1 Lemon
1 Jalapeño - very finely diced
Chives - thinly sliced
3-4 Garlic - pressed
splash of Soy Sauce
splash of Water
Honey
Black Pepper
EVOO
fresh Mint - minced

Juice the citrus into a bowl. Add a little zest from each fruit. Then, stir in everything but the EVOO and mint.

The amount of jalapeño, honey, and black pepper that's used is up to your taste. Just keep in mind that a vinaigrette should be a balanced mix of sweet, salty, spicy, and sour.

Next, slowly and steadily whisk in the EVOO till the liquid has doubled in volume. Finish by stirring in the mint. I like to do this last so that the mint leaves don't get stuck in my whisk.

This tastes a little like jalapeño jelly. You Texans will know what I'm talking about.

Serve over greens, rice, chicken or fish.
