Dang, “Manic Thursday.” That doesn’t quite work, and “Manic Monday” is so catchy. Oh well.<\/p>\n

Pedal to the metal all day at work, and then over to Mom’s to help with a few things. Home at 5pm and what’s for supper? We had a piece of salmon thawed out [1]<\/a>, a nice bunch of greens, and some frozen limas. Et voil\u00e0!<\/p>\n

Salmon on greens with limas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The whole plate is Asian themed. I tossed together a sauce of soy sauce, garlic, ginger [2]<\/a>, a squeeze of lime juice [3]<\/a>, and red pepper flakes.<\/p>\n

Basted the salmon with that sauce and put it under the broiler.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile I stir-fried the limas [4]<\/a>, then poured in a cup of chicken broth and cooked them until the broth cooked off. Tossed them with a bit of sesame oil and sesame seeds and we were ready to eat!<\/p>\n

We’re eating lighter these days and this was a delightful meal. A bit of protein from the salmon, a lot of veggies, and spicy seasoning to make it all intense and interesting.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

1. <\/a> Thanks to Debbie’s good planning.<\/p>\n

2. <\/a>Minced garlic from a jar and ginger paste from a tube. Am I going to mince garlic and ginger when a deadline is looming? I think not. <\/p>\n

3. <\/a>We had half a lime in the fridge, otherwise I would’ve used a squeeze from that bottle of ‘Real Lemon.’<\/p>\n

4. <\/a>Note to self, thaw the limas first. Otherwise they splatter like crazy when they hit the hot skillet and then the oil in the skillet ignites and then you have a towering column of flame. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
