Diner at my Sister’s House

I brought the Salmon. Noel brought the Salad. We all sat down to a wonderful meal.

The salmon recipe we used was one that I’d found on a website somewhere and passed it around, since we’re always looking for a new way to serve such an abundant fish.

Boy, was it ever good! Definitely a keeper:

Salmon in Lime Ginger Sauce

- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 3 Tbs. fresh ginger, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 2 jalapeño peppers, seeded and chopped
- Juice from one lime, (about three Tbs.)
- 1 Tbs. olive oil
- ¼ tsp. turmeric
- Four, six-ounce salmon fillets

Combine first four ingredients in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth, adding a little water if necessary. Add the next three ingredients and mix thoroughly. Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish and coat the fish fillets well, then cover and marinate for 10 minutes in the refrigerator.

Spread enough marinade to cover the bottom of a large, heavy skillet, and add the fillets. Spread the remaining marinade on the fish. Cover the skillet tightly and cook for 15 minutes over medium-low heat until fish is opaque throughout.
