Hopefully no one in authority will be beating down the door because of the rice...
I love to utilize the internet. Google is one of my friends. I have all these cookbooks on my shelf but I love the convenience of having an idea and instantly getting some other foodies opinions on the ingredients. Thanks all you blogging foodies.
The veggies were a medley of some favorites, some not so favorite and a newbie on the block. We had never tried fennel before and the darling husband/best friend had already been introduced to brussel sprouts and they did not have a good first impression. I scanned the internet world and when seven different food bloggers talked about the same recipe I just had to try it.
Balsamic Vegetables
1 fennel bulb sliced thinly
1 onion sliced thinly
10 mushrooms sliced thickly
3 garlic cloves sliced
15 brussel sprouts cut in half
1/2 extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons minced rosemary
salt and pepper
Mix it all and put it in a 13x9 glass pan and roast them at 425 degrees for 40 minutes stirring them at the half way point.
Lemon Rosemary Crusted Fish
2 pieces of fish (I used orange roughy you could use any hardy fish you like)
1/2 cup panko breading
1 garlic clove minced
2 teaspoons minced rosemary
1 lemon zest and juice
salt and pepper
Mix all the ingredients from panko down except for 1/2 of the lemon juice. Pat your fish dry and salt and pepper it. Put the fish on some parchment paper that has been sprayed with some canola oil. Squeeze the other half of the lemon on the fish and then top with the breading. Cook at 375 degrees for 18 minutes.
The black rice was just the package directions. I did add a teaspoon of olive oil and some salt to taste when it was done because of some of the comments I read online.
Very different flavor profile for us but I LIKED IT!! Very satisfied and happy that it all worked out!!
