No-Stick Grilling Marinade for Seafood

Fresh fish is one of the hardest proteins to grill.  The no-stick marinade is perfect when grilling filets or whole fish.  Brush the no-stick marinade on fish, scallops, soft-shell crabs, or lobster 30-45 minutes before grilling!

Ingredients

4 egg yolks
1 tbl Dijon mustard
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 cup canola oil
warm water as needed
2 tbl Lawry’s Seasoned Salt
1 tbl onion powder
1 tbl paprika
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp dried thyme leaves

Instructions

Place the egg yolks, Dijon mustard, and vinegar in a food processor.  Blend on medium speed for 1 – 2 minutes.

Slowly drizzle oils into the mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time.  If the marinade becomes too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of warm water.  Once all of the oil has been incorporated, add seasoned salt, black pepper, dry mustard, oregano, and thyme until incorporated.

Store covered in the refrigerator until needed.

Yield:  2 1/2 cups

Pastel de Huevo

OK, so it’s a quiche. But “Mexican Quiche” just didn’t sound right. I’ve already thrown in an Italian version in this book. I don’t want to do even more to insult the Francophiles. So, we’ll just call it an egg pie. If you have a Mexican market nearby, purchase your chorizo there (unless you make your own). Substitute queso cotija or queso chihuahua for a little more depth in the flavor profile. Leftover salsa can be used for a topping on scrambled eggs or a dip with chips later in the day.

Baked Potato Quiche

I call this recipe “Comfort quiche.” It’s perfect for a cold December evening. The great thing about quiche is that it can be prepared in advance and held cold in the refrigerator or frozen up to a couple of weeks. When the holidays are hectic and the house is crowded, this quiche is perfect as a lap meal in front of the fireplace served alongside a light salad.
