PAN-SEARED SCROD WITH ROMANO MASHED POTATOES AND ASPARAGUS AND FRESH VEGETABLES WITH A CRISPY BREAD CRUMB TOPPING
Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the juice and zest of 1 lemon. Place the scrod fillets in the bowl and allow the fish to marinate for approximately 20 minutes. In a medium sized saute pan, sear the scrod fillets over medium heat until both sides are evenly brown. Remove the fillets from the pan and set aside.
- Serve with Romano Mashed Potatoes, Fresh Vegetables with Crispy Bread Crumbs, and Sauteed Asparagus.
- In a large pot, combine the potatoes and just enough water to cover them. Boil the potatoes over medium-high heat until the water comes to a rolling boil. Continue boiling the potatoes until they are fork tender. Drain the water from the pot and add milk to desired creaminess, cheese, parsley and salt and pepper to the potatoes. Mash the ingredients all together with a hand masher until they are all thoroughly combined. Serve with the fish and vegetables.
- In a medium sized saute pan, sear the asparagus spears with olive oil and lemon juice. Cook the asparagus until it is tender. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
- In a medium-sized pan, cook the bacon strips until they are crispy. Remove the slices from the pan and crumble the pieces. Reserve the pan of bacon grease and add in the diced red pepper, green pepper, onion, parsley, and garlic. Saute the vegetables in the bacon grease with hot pepper sauce until they are tender. Add the bread crumbs to the pan and thoroughly combine all of the ingredients.
CONTEST-WINNING TACO CASSEROLE
My preschooler doesn't eat ground beef unless it's taco flavored, so I came up with this casserole we all like. To make assembly easy, I prepare the taco meat and freeze several bags at a time. I also cook the noodles over the weekend for a timely supper later in the week. -Kathy Wilson, Romeoville, Illinois

- Preheat your oven to the correct temperature. The temperature of your oven will vary depending on the recipe you are using. Be sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before you start cooking the scrod.
- Season the scrod with salt and pepper. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for scrod. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Bake the scrod until it is cooked through. The cooking time for scrod will vary depending on the size and thickness of the fillets. Bake the scrod until it is opaque and flaky.

- Serve the scrod immediately. Scrod is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can serve it with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
