Calamari and pasta

Super simple and satisfying. I could just say, "make your favorite pasta sauce, add the calamari and simmer for 5 minutes, then serve with pasta and wine," but I know some folks enjoy a good list so here goes....

Sautéed Calamari with Parsley and Garlic

Garlic, butter, and calamari - yeah baby!! Not in the mood for frying? Pour yourself a glass of something cold and heat up a baguette. There is so much more to this beautiful cephalopod than just fried rings. But let's clean it first! See the video HERE. Recipe lovingly borrowed from Chowhound.

Pan Fried Abalone with Lemon-Sriracha aioli

Beautiful abalone - perfect tender bites of joy plus nature's art! Enjoy this quick and easy fried preparation, a classic for abalone. Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of fried seafood but this was ridiculously good and easy. Was it because they were alive only 5 minutes before I ate them? Or the bit of bacon grease I mixed in with the oil? I don't know, but this is a quick and easy way to prepare them that let's the abalone shine.

Roasted whole sablefish with miso

Whip up this quick marinade and let it soak for at least 30 minutes before popping it in the oven if you can. If you're pressed for time don't sweat it, just slather it and roast!
