Fish Dish !!! Yum.

Fish dish , got an awesome recipe from my boy Pete.

He got this from his cousin out of the Garden State.

Time to prep no time at all, time to cook 45 min.

First  you get a baking pan,11 by 9 glass dish is nicer to use. Glaze your dish with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder over the olive oil in the dish. This is a nice base to infuse flavor. Layer your fish, throw some butter chunks on the fish. Now layer some garlic powder on top of the butter and fish.  Instead of scallops that we’re in original recipe, I used the stems of mushrooms.  Pop the stems out of the mushrooms and cut them to look like scallops. I used mushroom stems because most scallops you find are  shark meat anyhow.  Season with salt and pepper. Top with spinach and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Bake for 30 minutes then you must drain the liquid. Then top dish with mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake for another for another 15 minutes till it is slightly golden. Garnish with topping of choice. I used dried papaya. This dish is so good you could serve it alone but for a yummy side try a nice house salad and glass of Pinot Grigio.

My name is Sean and I am a surety agent which is a bondsman! Besides bailing people out from jail, I love to cook for my family! I come from a family who has always had a passion for cooking! My mom’s side of the family is Italian and I can remember all the times they made homemade pasta, gravy, Bolognese, and more. Many afternoons were spent sitting around the table eating great meals with the family. Manga, manga,manga! Now on my dad’s side of the family, they are Jewish and they have always loved to cook too! Homemade brisket made by Gram was the best and who could resist her potato pancakes and Matza ball soup. My dad owned a pizzeria where not only did he make great food but also great friends. I learned a lot hanging around and working in the kitchen. As you can see, I grew up with a rich diversity of food and a love for food! I learned that great cooking equals lots of great memories with family and friends. I hope you enjoy my blog as I share a wide range of recipes with you!

An an oldie but a goldie, mozzarella caprese! I used farm fresh, locally grown tomatoes. That’s what makes it so good, those ripe, juicy tomatoes! I topped it with thick slices of Buffalo mozzarella with torn basil leaves, drizzled with an aged balsamic glaze, extra virgin olive oil, a dash of pink Himalayan sea salt, and a dash of garlic. This appetizer will have everyone ready for course two!
