Dinner tonight is as quick and easy as it gets for us. With a four day old baby time is short, but we still need nutritious energy to keep up with our two and a half year old.
Here's the result;
Broiled panko crusted hake with fresh greens and herbed brown rice.
The Hake
16oz of hake filets
1 cup panko
1 tbsp Chachere's(see below) or mix of cayenne and salt
1 tsp curry powder
1 egg
Rinse and pat dry filets. Mix dry ingredients in one bowl, beat egg in another. Dip and coat filets in egg, then coat with panko mix. Place on a baking tray and broil until slightly blackened.
Herbed Brown Rice
1 bag frozen whole grain brown rice
1 tbsp herbs de provence
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Mix herbs with rice, heat in microwave, when done toss with olive oil
I made the rice while the fish cooked, and then placed fresh greens, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and a pepper grinder on the table. All told, about 15-20 minutes including prep and a very healthy meal. I made this while my wife was nursing and my older daughter was sitting on her potty watching dora. We like multi-tasking.
As you may have noticed these recipes are more like a blueprint that can be modified to your tastes or easily experimented with. Enjoy!
Here's a link to the number one secret flavoring in my kitchen- I don't cook with salt, unless I'm using Chachere's...
