What We Had For Dinner

Haven't had one of these posts in a while. And I love me a good recipe, so it's definitely over due:

Seared Salmon with Jalapeno Ponzu

Ingredients:

1/4 cup lower-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

2 tablespoons saki (rice wine)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon dark sesame oil

4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets

1 large jalapeno pepper, cut crosswise into think slices

Directions:

1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a small bowl; stir well.

2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon, skin side down. 

3. Cook 4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.

4. Arrange 1 fillet on each of 4 plates. Top fillets evenly with jalapeno slices. Spoon about 2 tablespoons soy sauce mixture over each serving; let stand 10 minutes before serving.

I will say that the jalapenos were spiiiicy. Maybe cut out the seeds, or sautee them a bit before putting them on the fish (unless extra spicy's your style). But, we loooved the sauce that was on the fish. It was delicious!

This made for a perfect roomie dinner night. 

{Not to mention we have pretty much an entire bottle of saki left over. Saki bombs, anyone?}

Happy Almost Friday!
