quick and easy meals for 1 or 2

poppop's favorite way to go with salmon serves 2.

We're going to go with potatoes fried with onions and rosemary for a carb and sauted string beans with garlic for a veggie.

This real good on the grill. A hot frying pan will work in a pinch.

Get 2 salmon fillets. ask the "fish person" to cut the fillets from the middle, not the end, of that big slab of salmon on display. You'll want them about 2-2 1/2 inches wide. Then ask him to skin them for you.

When you get home immediatly put the fillets in a large plastic zip lock bag. Add about a half cup of white wine, half cup of olive oil, a couple of shakes of garlic powder, a couple shakes of paprika, juice from a lemon (throw the skins in too) and about a half cup of onions real thin sliced or julliene . Somersault it a few times to mix it all up. let it sit while you get the veggies cut up.

2 med potatoes cut into chips about a 1/8 inch thick and 1/2 med size onion cut up julienne.

trim up about three hand fulls of string beans. mince 2 cloves of garlic.

After the veggies are cut up put the fish on the grill or pan med high heat. Be sure to get the onions on the fillets and let them cook up with the fish. Throw out the bag and the marinade.

Multi task the veggies and the fish. They all should be done about the same time.

Oil in a frying pan med high. Start the potatoes in the oil. Add the onions to the potatoes when they are about half done also about 2 big pinches of rosemary. Toss or turn the potatoes fairly often as they cook.

As soon as the potatoes are going good start another pan med heat. Add the string beans and after a couple of minutes the garlic. toss fairly often.

SERVE IT UP!! with some crusty bread, some lemon wedges for the fish and the beans (maybe some of poppop's recipe) and the rest of that white wine!!
