Your Most Requested Fish (5 ways to cook it)

Published 9 months ago • 1 min read

Hello, Reader.

My family in the midwest is digging out from another week of multiple snowstorms. Meanwhile, here across the Atlantic, we had a small-ish earthquake on Monday, followed by a deluge of rain - and today I woke up to bright skies and the warmest sun.

If your head is spinning (like mine!), I hope this Sunday gives you a pocket of time for some well-deserved rest. We've earned it!

And since so many of you tell me that salmon is your favorite fish, today's note is all about SALMON. I'm sharing two brand new recipes, plus three tried-and-true classics perfect for your week.

5 Weeknight Salmon Dishes

Mediterranean One-Pan Salmon and Rice A perfectly timed one-pot dinner where tender salmon rests on fluffy rice full of green olives, lemon, and garlic.
Classic Salmon Patties with Lemon-Dill Sauce Crispy on the outside, tender inside, these salmon patties get brightened up with a tangy homemade lemon-dill sauce that makes them impossible to resist.
Caesar Salmon Salad My go-to springtime cafe order is now in heavy rotation in my own kitchen. It's a restaurant-worthy meal that comes together in minutes.
Greek-Style Broiled Salmon Steaks Quick-cooking salmon steaks get the Mediterranean treatment with a blend of oregano, garlic, and lemon, then broiled until golden.
Smoked Salmon Flatbread Everything you love about a loaded bagel and lox, but served on warm, crispy flatbread - perfect for brunch parties or a luxurious weekend breakfast.

I woke up Friday morning to see that Chef Emeril Lagasse had watched AND LIKED a short video I posted about moving to Portugal.

My 12-year-old self who watched Food Network religiously can hardly believe this life. Check out the video Emeril liked here and follow along for more adventures (you'll be in good company!). 😂

See you next week, friend.

PS: Know someone who loves salmon but they're intimidated by cooking it at home? Forward them this email - I promise these recipes will build their confidence and you'll be the hero!

Portuguese Seafood Stew 🇵🇹

Easy Coastal Flavors I love traveling, but I also love coming home to our corner of Portugal. This is the dish I can't wait to eat every time the plane touches down in Lisbon. Some version of this saucy, flavor-packed seafood rice is served in nearly every restaurant here. Make it with fish, shrimp, or whatever you find at the fish counter this week. Here's the version I make most often... Portuguese Stew Garlic Shrimp (another Portuguese specialty!) Greek Salmon (make with fillets or...

Mexican Shrimp Caesar Salad piled high on a platter.

Honey chipotle shrimp goes everywhere 🌶️

Hello, Sunday! This week's star is honey chipotle shrimp that hits every note - sweet, smoky, and a little spicy. I've been making them on repeat because they just work everywhere: tacos, salads, grain bowls, you name it. Keep scrolling for my air fryer fish tacos and the garlicky green sauce every taco truck guards like a state secret. Plus a caesar that uses our Mexican shrimp as the protein, because sometimes the best ideas come from great leftovers. Mexican-Style Shrimp Mexican Caesar...
