Salmon and Asian Vegetables #Recipe @PegCochran

Are you taking a break from watching the royal wedding to visit the blog?

This is a lovely, light recipe for the warmer days ahead! It comes from the Skinnytaste cookbook my daughter gave me for Mother's Day called Fast and Slow. (I won't repeat the comment my husband made about that title.)

This is not the exact  recipe because...well, because.  I think the recipe was for four or six people and there are only two of us.  And there was more bokchoy involved, which I don't think my husband loves.  So I kind of fiddled with quantities and ingredients.  Feel free to do the same.

Ingredients

Salmon (I made 1/2 lb. for the two of us)
Asian sweet chili sauce (about 2 tablespoons was enough for the quantity of salmon)
Sriracha to taste (I used a teaspoon and it was plenty spicy)
red, orange or yellow peppers (I used two) sliced into thin strips
baby bokchoy (I used one small bunch but you could definitely use more) cut into quarters
dash of olive oil
2 tsps. minced garlic
2 tsps. grated ginger (I used the stuff in the jar)
Soy sauce


Combine Asian chili sauce and sriracha and brush on fish.  Grill salmon outside or inside until just done (it took about 8 minutes on a gas grill preheated to 400 degrees.)

In a pan, heat olive oil and add garlic and ginger.  Cook, stirring, until fragrant.  Add veggies and saute until desired doneness.  I added a dash of soy sauce, which wasn't in the recipe but was good!

Plate salmon on top of veggies and enjoy!

A Park Avenue princess discovers the dark side of 1930s New York when a debutante ball turns deadly in this gripping historical mystery for readers of Victoria Thompson, Anne Perry, and Rhys Bowen.

Manhattan, 1938. Tired of being trapped in the gilded cage of her family’s expectations, Elizabeth Adams has done what no self-respecting socialite would think to do: She’s gotten herself a job. Although Elizabeth’s dream is to one day see her photographs on the front page of the Daily Trumpet, for now she’s working her way up as the newsroom’s gal Friday.

But fetching coffee isn’t exactly her idea of fun, so when veteran reporter Ralph Kaminsky needs a photographer to fill in for a last-minute assignment, Elizabeth jumps at the chance. At the Waldorf Hotel, Elizabeth is tasked with tracking down the season’s “It girl,” Gloria DeWitt, who will be making her society debut. Working her own connections to New York’s upper crust, Elizabeth manages to land an exclusive interview with Gloria.

Then Gloria’s stepmother is shot dead in a Waldorf bathroom, placing Elizabeth at the scene of a headline-worthy scandal: “Murder of a Society Dame.” Now Elizabeth will have to get the scoop on the killer before her good name gets dragged through the gossip columns—or worse. . . .
