Fishing for Time Summertime is always filled with weekend trips and vacations, bridal showers and weddings, outdoor hobbies and activities, picnics and other fun stuff. Although this is a great and exciting time of year, its busyness often makes cooking less of a priority. After reading this article you will have no more excuses not to cook a healthy meal. Both of these recipes can be thrown together and on the table in under 30 minutes. Serve either with corn on the cob which cooks in about 12 minutes, a salad of sliced tomato, mozzarella cheese and fresh basil, or roasted asparagus with a little chopped garlic, salt and pepper and dinner is served! Flounder Two Ways The Dijon mustard with lemon juice makes a tangy combination and the Chili Garlic Sauce with lime juice is perfect for something a little spicier. Now you have two tasty options both with zero added fat. Ingredients Ύ-1 lb. flounder, two fillets ½ tsp salt, divided equally ½ tsp pepper, divided equally 1 tsp. Dijon mustard 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1 tsp. Chili Garlic Sauce 1 tsp. fresh lime juice Directions Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place each fillet in the center of a piece of foil and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Add the Dijon mustard and lemon juice to one, and Chili Garlic Sauce and fresh lime juice to the other. Use a back of spoon to coat the fillets then cover each with another sheet of foil, tenting it slightly over the fish, and crimp edges together to seal. Place each on a large baking sheet and cook for about 10 minutes until flaky. Makes 3-4 servings. Sensational Swordfish This meal is so satisfying yet very health beneficial.
