This is one of the better meals that we've had in a while, but I think it's partially because we haven't had pasta in a while and eating Salmon is even rarer. My wife isn't a huge fish fan, so I had to find a way to blend this into a meal that was tasty.
Ingredients:
- Salmon
- Angel hair pasta
- Zucchini
- Thai Shrimp Salad
- Olive Oil
- Everyday seasoning
- Minced Garlic
- Frozen Spinach
Step 1: Cook the pasta. Drain the water and mix in a little olive oil, frozen spinach, and a teaspoon of minced garlic for flavor. Stir well and cover until plating.
Step 2: Grill the salmon and zucchini. I put a little everyday seasoning on my salmon and zucchini. I cooked the salmon over indirect heat and added some orange wood chips for a hint of smoky flavor. The zucchini was cooked simultaneously in a grilling bowl over direct heat. the zucchini was tossed in olive oil and everyday seasoning. At the very end I lightly coated the salmon with some orange sauce I had in the refrigerator.
Step 3: Plate the food. I first put down a bed of angel hair pasta, then a bed of zucchini on top, and then I add the salmon. My final garnish was this Thai Shrimp Salad that I found at whole foods when I bought the salmon. I thought it looked good, so I gave it a try.
The end result was fantastic. This is a perfect example of pulling together a couple of things to make a delicious meal. My wife was pleasantly surprised!
