Summer time!! Would like some new recipes.?
It' summer time, it's hot & you don't want to spend alot of time cooking. Salads & pastas are GREAT but I need some new ideas for dinner. Light dinners, nothing to heavy. Anyone got any ideas?
Answers:
CRISPY FILLET OF FLOUNDER LIGHT
(DINNER FOR TWO)
4 slices fillet of flounder (may be substituted with other fish)
1/2 c. skim milk
2 c. corn flakes
4 tbsp. butter
Preheat oven at 450 degrees. Rinse the fish with cold water. Use a glass baking pan or Corningware dish. Add the 1/2 cup skim milk so that the fish will not stick to the pan and will keep the fish nice and moist.
Melt the 4 tablespoons of butter and pour over top of the fish. Crush the 2 cups of corn flakes with your hands as you sprinkle over the top of the fish. Place in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, then serve.

Mix all ingredients for the lime marinade together in a medium bowl. Add 1/3 cup olive oil, the juice of three limes, garlic, fresh cilantro, and salt and pepper.
Lay boneless chicken breasts between 2 sheet wax paper. Using a wooden mallet, pound each chicken breast gently to tenderize meat. Place chicken breasts in lime marinade for a minimum of two hours - keep covered and chilled. (If you need to prepare dish in advance, you can marinate breasts overnight.) Cook chicken breast on grill pan, or in broiler for about 5 minutes on each side or until cooked just through.
In a wok over high heat, add sesame oil and chili oil and a dash of garlic powder. When oil is hot, lower heat to medium and toss in chopped walnuts and chopped fresh broccoli. Stir occasionally, cooking for four more minutes. Add low sodium soy sauce and cover and cook for one more minute.
Serve lime marinated chicken breasts and broccoli with broiled red, yellow and orange peppers.

Try Crab salad with fresh french bread. Get imitation crab meant, celery, little onion if you want to and mayo, pepper and salt to taste.
Or try SW Style crepes. Crepes are just an egg, milk and some flour to make a thing batter, and a pinch of salt. Filling is made out of 1 can of chicken, salsa to taste, some sour cream and bring to a simmer. Serve with fresh salad and you have a great meal in no time at all.
