Spaguetti with Tuna

2015-01-22T20:47:00.002-08:00

Today's recipe has its own story. I like canned tuna, but at home nobody likes it. I really tried to prepare it in different presentations, but I think my super tuna salads are not very popular. One day I decided to find a recipe that contains tuna but without the tuna taste. After some research I found this recipe (ts easy to cook and with a great taste):

Ingredients:

1 lb of spaghetti, cooked.
2-3 canned tuna
half onion, finely chopped
2 cans of table cream
1 green bell pepper, chopped
A pinch of chipotle pepper
A pinch of salt and pepper

Preparation:

Pour one tbsp of oil (your choice) in a pan and add the onion. When the onion is a little bit brown, add the green bell pepper.
Add the table cream to the mix of onion and green pepper. Leave over the stove for one minute. Then, add a pinch of chipotle pepper.
Add the tuna to the mix and leave it on the stove over medium flame for a couple of minutes. Then remove it from the stove.
To serve: place some spaghetti over a plate and serve with the tuna mixture.
Enjoy it!

Parmesan Fish

When I was looking for this recipe the weather was rather cold and I was thinking about something warm and delicious. I did not have many options, but I found a good recipe with fish.You can eat this yummy fish with white rice or the vegetables of your preference. Enjoy!

Ingredients for two people:

2 pieces of white fish

To rub the fish:

A pinch of garlic powder
A pinch of garlic onion
A pinch of paprika

Parmesan Mix.

1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp of mayonnaise
2 tbsp butter, melted
1 tbsp basil (dried, but if you have fresh you can use it)
1/8 tbsp of lemon zest
2 tbsp of fresh lemon juice
A pinch of garlic powder

Preparation:

Set oven to 350 deg F. Over a greased tray, place the fish and rub it with: garlic and onion powder and paprika. Place the tray in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the meat is white or flaky.
Mix the Parmesan ingredients in a bowl.
When the fish is ready, you will need to take it out from the oven and pour the Parmesan mix over the filets.
Put the fish in the oven at 400 degF for about 5 minutes. If your oven has a broil setting, you may select this option. You will need to monitor the fish to avoid it from overcooking; we only need to melt the cheese until it turns a little brown.
Remove the tray from the oven and you are ready to enjoy a delicious meal. If you are hungry like I am right now, you will enjoy this dish even more. Enjoy!
