Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large eggs
1 1/2 pounds skin-on halibut fillets
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 pounds mixed vegetables (such as scallions, garlic scapes, Romano beans, halved small eggplants, halved baby or new potatoes)
4 cups torn lettuce leaves (such as romaine, red leaf, or butter)
1 cup Sun Gold tomatoes, halved
1 bunch small breakfast radishes, trimmed, halved lengthwise
1 cup Green Olive Tapenade

Steps:

  • Cook eggs in a large saucepan of boiling water 7 minutes. Drain and place in a large bowl of ice water; let cool.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Rub halibut with 2 Tbsp. oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill, skin side down, until skin is charred and fish is nearly cooked through, 5-8 minutes. Turn and grill just until cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer halibut to a plate and remove skin.
  • Toss vegetables with remaining 1/4 cup oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and tender. Time will be different for each vegetable (about 2 minutes for scallions and garlic scapes, 4 minutes for Romano beans, 8-10 minutes for eggplants, 10-15 for potatoes). Transfer to a plate as they are done.
  • Carefully peel and halve eggs (yolks will still be a bit loose in the center). Arrange lettuce leaves on a platter and place halibut, grilled vegetables, tomatoes, radishes, and eggs in separate areas on top. Spoon some Green Olive Tapenade over; serve remaining tapenade alongside.

ROTISSERIE WHOLE CHICKEN (JUST LIKE BOSTON MARKET)



Rotisserie Whole Chicken (Just Like Boston Market) image

I've made this with a whole chicken, and it's a lovely presentation that gets lots of oohs and ahhs. But my carving skills and patience leave a little to desire. So I tried making this with a cut-up fryer once, and it's just as delicious.

Provided by Vickie Parks

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

CHICKEN:
3.5-4 lb whole chicken
1 large onion, cut into several wedges

  • 5. After removing the chicken from the oven, seal the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Let stand at least 30 minutes before carving and serving.

"ALMOST" BOSTON MARKET CREAMED SPINACH



This is quite similar to the creamed spinach at Boston Market, well so I'm told anyway! --- this is a great side dish, even people that hate spinach love this, it's great to serve along side a holiday turkey or a ham dinner, or at any meal --- I also like to saute about 2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic and a pinch of cayenne pepper in the butter for about 2 minutes before adding in the flour but that is optional, add in some grated Parmesan cheese too if desired, this complete recipe can be doubled :)

THE FISH MARKET CHEEZY GARLIC BREAD



The Fish Market Cheezy Garlic Bread image

I came to the Bay Area CA in 1975 and the first Fish Market was opened on El Camino Real in Palo Alto CA the next year in 1976. It was only 5 minutes from work and I started going to the Fish Market often for lunch. The second Fish Market was opened in early 80's also in my neighborhood, Santa Clara. Since then, they have expanded to the Socal area. I've always loved their seafood selection. So fresh, but I also loved few other offerings such as this Cheezy Garlic Bread, their coleslaw and potatoes au gratin. This recipe comes from their own cookbook. Apparently this bread was served mainly for their employees long before it hit the menu. In the book, this bread is made with 3 types of sauces ie garlic puree, aioli sauce and finally Parmesan sauce that adds garlic puree and aioli sauce. I streamlined the procedure for easier recipe.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons Sherry vinegar or white wine vinegar
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 1/2 pounds multicolored cherry tomatoes, halved (quartered if large)
3 ears corn, shucked
1 1/2 pounds medium zucchini
8 to 9 ounces dried egg pappardelle or dried egg fettuccine
1/4 pound sugar snap peas, strings discarded and peas halved diagonally
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion (optional)
1 cup small basil leaves, torn if large
1/2 cup mint leaves
1/3 cup snipped chives
Accompaniment: Shavings of Parmesan made with vegetable peeler
Special Equipment
A good vegetable peeler, preferably V- or U-shaped

Steps:

  • Bring a 6- to 8-quart pot of well-salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then stir together with vinegar, oil, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add tomatoes and stir gently, then set aside.
  • Cook corn in boiling water until tender, 4-6 minutes, then remove with tongs and cool.
  • While corn cools, peel lengthwise ribbons from 1 side of a zucchini with vegetable peeler into another bowl, stopping when you get to seedy core. Turn zucchini a quarter-turn, then peel more ribbons, stopping at core. Repeat on remaining 2 sides of zucchini (you will end up with rectangular-shaped cores). Reserve cores for another use (such as soup).
  • Cut corn from cobs; add corn to tomatoes.
  • Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Just before pasta is done, stir in zucchini ribbons and snap peas and cook 15 seconds. Drain pasta and vegetables together in a large colander and add to tomato mixture with onion (if using), then toss gently.
  • Add herbs and toss gently again.

CANTON ARCADE MARKET CONEY SAUCE

I've never had it but I was told that the coneys at this now-gone Ohio hotspot were just tops. My mother-in-law had some sort of connection there and here's the recipe. Obviously, you may wish to halve the recipe (for 3 pounds of hot dogs). I hope it brings back pleasant memories if you ever went there.
