Blackened Fish Tacos with Strawberry Salsa
Oh fish tacos, how I love you guys. I don’t have a massive story to tell about these, actually I may not have a story at all. I made the mayo, made the salsa, ate half of the salsa before dinner, made guacamole, munched on that too, and by the time Continue reading “Blackened Fish Tacos with Strawberry Salsa”
Mediterranean Spaghetti Squash Bowl
It’s cold outside, and I need some comfort food. And it may not be the case for you but as far as I am concerned, spaghetti squash falls right into that category. I typically have a marinara sauce with my spaghetti squash but I just so happened to have some freshly made pesto and thought it might be a nice change.
Pan Seared Halibut with Coconut Curry Emulsion
Folks, don’t let the name of this recipe fool you, this was one of the easiest dishes I’ve ever prepared. Or at the very least Continue reading “Pan Seared Halibut with Coconut Curry Emulsion”
Spicy Middle Eastern White Fish
I wanted something fresh and light for a nice summer meal and I already had the salad, but need a plan for the main event. As always I like to join opposite flavours in a dish and with a sweet, refreshing salad, a bit of spice was needed. Continue reading “Spicy Middle Eastern White Fish”

Seafood Pot with Fennel & White Wine Broth
Actually called Bouillabaise, this dish is generally found in French restaurants. I love this dish on a cold winter day with a nice crisp glass of white and a pair of slippers. I was at the fish store getting my ingredients and I get so bloody excited when I’m in there I want to buy one filet of every fish… Continue reading “Seafood Pot with Fennel & White Wine Broth”
Creole Grilled Chicken with Root Vegetable Puree
Have you ever had the Creole Chicken at Cactus Club? Best chicken I’ve ever had, by far. As soon as I tasted it for the first time, I knew I would be on a quest to find the recipe or at least something similar. Well, I couldn’t get my hands on Chef Fernie’s original recipe, but this comes pretty darn close! It is just so freaking juicy and full of flavours it will literally blow your mind. Continue reading “Creole Grilled Chicken with Root Vegetable Puree”
Indian Butter Chicken
Indian butter chicken, one of my all time favourites. This is definitely one dish I’ve tried making at least 10 different ways. That’s the thing with curries; unless you follow a specific recipe and portion every ingredient and each spice to a T, you will get a slightly different result each time.
