Spiced Garlick-y Grilled Snapper with Parmesan Truffle Oven Fries

Especial para Isa!!

Spiced Garlick-y Grilled Snapper

  • Red Snapper, with the skin
  • Garlic (lots!)
  • Juice from one lemon
  • Orange Juice (about 1/4 cup)
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt/Pepper
  • Blackening spices (or any mix of spices you like :)

Mix all ingredients, spread over fish and let marinade for 20-30 mins.
Place on a the grill, with the skin side up first (to get the nice grill marks on the fish)
In 5-6 minutes, turn and cook thoroughly (about 14 minutes total, depending on thickness).

If you have a fish basket for the grill use it..if you don't have one...get one :)

Light and simple, but very yummy....definitely a repeat!


Parmesan Truffle Oven Fries

  • Potatoes of your liking (I used regular good old Idaho potatoes)
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt/Pepper
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Black truffle Salt (a little bit goes a long way!)

Preheat over to 375F

Slice potatoes in strips (as if you were making French fries!), season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil and mix well.

In a non-stick cooking pan (wish I had one! haha), place the potatoes and roast for about 30 minutes. Approximately mid-way through, move them around to get an even brown color. If they are done, but you still want them a little more on the brown side (like I always do!), just broil them for a couple of minutes.

Immediately after you take them out, sprinkle a pinch of the truffle salt and top with Parmesan cheese!.

Voila, delicious!

Running update: Not anything exciting to report. Went for what I thought would be a 4 mile run...after 3.5 miles my foot was bothering me so I decided to walk the rest home. The run up until that point has not been my best, but I haven't ran since Monday and last week was lame...it's like starting from scratch! :( On another running note, my uncle just ran the NY marathon...see?? My dad, my uncle...it has to be in my genes, please? :))
