It's all about the protein in the freezer, kids...

Yes, indeed. Protein in the freezer. The other day it was chicken, last night it was rockfish, and tonight, it looks like it's going to be salmon.

Last night, dinner was some sliced rockfish sauteed in olive oil along with some garlic, to which was added frozen corn and some Trader Joe's (TJ's) black pepper sautee sauce. That's it. And some broiled tomatoes with a sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley and some squeezed lemon. Took ~20 minutes, all told. No, really.

- Slice rockfish into strips (against the grain), and chop some garlic.

- Heat oil in pan, give garlic a head start, throw in rockfish, rotating when it's done on one side.

- When rockfish is almost done, add in corn. Let corn defrost in pan, and then add sauce. Heat through.

For the tomatoes:

- Turn broiler on high, put washed roma tomatoes in broiling pan (if you put foil down, you don't have a huge mess), and stick 'em right under the flame. Leave until they get some degree of char and leak juice. Slice in half, sprinkle with fresh parsley (or herb of choice), squeeze lemon, eat.

That's it.

Dessert was orange segments and 2 squares of TJ's pound plus dark chocolate (I think it's 72%?). Two squares dissolved in my mouth is about all I can take of that chocolate. It's brilliant for PMS, general anger, and things like that. I could have made rice, but... eh, I wasn't feeling it. The corn counted as veggie and starch at the same time, anyway.

...Man, I love broiled tomatoes.
