Toasted Herb Bread
Jul 14, 2005
Short cut noodles make for an easy-to-share pasta dish. Simple to prep and effortless to make, this recipe features fresh ingredients like sweet cherry tomatoes, baby arugula and Brussels sprouts, along with locally sourced West Coast halibut and Ontario pancetta making it a bright and flavourful meal.
A seasoned coating on flattened chicken breast makes for a juicy and succulent meal.
Be sure to use a ripe mango for this recipe to ensure that its sweetness complements the heat in the marinade. Wonton wrappers are usually found in the produce section of grocery stores.
Seasonal sweet cherry tomatoes add the perfect dose of freshness to this simple lemony pasta.
We have recreational oceanfront property on the Sunshine Coast in BC and have a abundance of fresh seafood available twelve months of the year. One trip several years ago we had only caught two redrock crab off our float and ramp system and about two dozen or so large BC spotted prawns. We decided to put these two ingredients together to make a tasty dish to go along with our city dinner. We have no stores nearby so must make do and improvise.
Fish is a staple in our home and I am always trying to create new accompaniments, while at the same time using local foods. I enjoy creating nutritious meals that are diabetic friendly (two of my children have Type 1 Diabetes), heart healthy, and always incorporating as many colours of the rainbow that I can. This dish can be made with any white fish as it looks so inviting with the reds and greens of the sides. Wild blueberries and Halibut - a perfect marriage as opposites do attract! I have (tried) roasted beets before but was always a bit disappointed when they dried out, so I tried this crusting method and it turns out a moist brightly colored beet with just a hint of horseradish! When plating this recipe, layering creates a presentation that is not only eye-appealing, but a superb blend of flavors. Using summers' bounty means delicious fresh menus for friends and family.
