7 Weeks of Meatless Fridays!

Darcy over at Life with my 3 Boybarians is hosting a new meme called 7 weeks of Meatless Fridays in honor of the upcoming Lenten Season. (by the way if you haven't been to her blog you should go for a visit, the pictures of her little boys are awesome! I wish I could take pictures like that. I will just blame it on my camera:):) The idea is to post your recipe early in the week (on Monday if possible, and with some pictures too!) to share with others so if they like your recipe they will have time to prepare to make it themselves for their own family. My family has been observing no meat Fridays outside of the Lenten season for quite awhile now for our regular (non-Lenten) Friday obligation, so I am looking forward to learning about some new recipes and trying them out too!

The recipe that I wanted to share for this week is really nothing spectacular. What it is, is really just a basic, easy and tasty way to prepare salmon (or any fish for that matter), where the main ingredient is just a simple and inexpensive seasoning made for.... beef! (But really, it tastes great on fish!)

This recipe would work with any fish that is not too delicate, but I mostly use it when preparing salmon.



Mrs. L's Stove top Salmon and Green Beans

Ingredients:

1 pound salmon (can be fresh or the frozen variety; you can also substitute another fish if you have that on hand instead)
Approx.4 tablespoons butter
Approx. 1/2 cup olive oil (or what ever amount it takes to completely coat the bottom of your saute pan)
Durkee Grill Creations-Beef Seasoning
Green Beans (use how much your family eats; I use frozen string beans, but canned, fresh, or any type would work just as well)


Preparation:

1.) Pour olive oil in saucepan and also add butter. Heat on medium-high heat.

2.) While that is heating, season salmon generously on both sides with Durkee seasoning.

3.) Place salmon in pan and cook on each side for about 8-10 minutes with pan covered.

4.) Uncover pan and turn heat up to high. Allow fish to cook about another 3-5 minutes on each side to get a nice browned skin.

5.) Throw green beans in with fish and heat through.

That's it! Really easy and always turns out well!
