Sriracha Lime Salmon-14
It’s been over a month now since we got our little baby chicks and it is ridiculous how quickly they are growing.

For those of you just here for a recipe (hi!!), I’ll refrain from giving you a dissertation on my chicks and save that for tomorrow.
Today we’re talking about this healthy and delicious dinner of Sriracha & Lime Salmon w/ Garlic Roasted Brussel Sprouts. Disclaimer: there might have been quite a few more sprouts before I started taking pictures but I couldn’t stop eating them! Ooops.

My favorite thing about this dish is that it requires the smallest amount of effort. The hardest part is mincing the garlic and from there you just throw everything in a skillet. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. But not lemon…we’re using lime.

When cooking fish at home, salmon is usually my go to. Unfortunately, I don’t live in an area where fresh fish is seen very often so I most often buy it frozen. So, that’s what we have here.

Since the brussel sprouts take longer to cook, those go in first with the garlic to saute for a few minutes.

After the sprouts have cooked for about 8 minutes, take them off of the heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine honey, lime juice & zest, sriracha sauce, and salt.

Taking each piece of salmon individually, dip it into the sauce so that it is covered on each side. Place the salmon in the middle of the skillet.
Sriracha Lime Salmon-4
Once the salmon is placed, pour the remainder of the sauce over top of the 2 pieces of salmon. The juices will spread throughout the pan which is okay. The brussel sprouts will soak up the extra sauce and make them extra yummmmmyyy. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes.

When I first made this dish, I didn’t anticipate how much the brussel sprouts would also be flavored by the sriracha and lime juice. The honey causes it to kind of caramelize around the veggies and make them extra delicious.

It’s all topped with a good handful of cilantro and eaten right out of the skillet for maximum flavor consumption.

EASY RUSTIC SHEPHERD’S PIE WITH THE CHEESIEST MASHED POTATOES

-
Image
My take on the classic – shepherd’s pie! Of course, like with any of my other recipes this shepherd’s pie is loaded with herbs and spices to give it the best flavor. Finally, we’ll top it off with the cheesiest Irish cheddar mashed potatoes your shepherd’s pie has ever seen! Gosh, golly! Would you look at that bubbly brown, cheesy crust! This isn’t any ordinary shepherd’s pie. Sure it’s humble food, but that doesn’t mean it has to be bland and boring. It starts with tender onions, celery, and carrots and of course tons of garlic, because when do we not do garlic around here? Then there’s also this herb and spice-scented ground lamb (or beef) all blanketed with cheesy Irish cheddar mashed potatoes. It’s fall/winter/spring comfort food and who can even say no to that? There’s something so magical about this easy shepherd’s pie recipe. Sure, every family has a version, and sure with every version, you’ll find something is a little different. Most of the time I notice shepherd’s pie to...
