At the grocery, we both couldn’t agree on the type of fish to cook for dinner.. so we bought both. In marriage you learn real quick that compromise solves most issues (and relieves most fights.) Some grilled fish for dinner with stewed white beans and topped with a sun-dried tomato and caper relish. Absolutely delicious and so easy - a must try!

GRILLED TUNA & SALMON WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATO + CAPER RELISH

DIFFICULTY | easy COOK TIME | 20 minutes PREP TIME | 20 min

INGREDIENTS:

(8) oz tuna steak

(10) oz salmon, deboned skin on

(1) T Rockerbox green onion dust

Salt and pepper to taste

Drizzle of olive oil

PREPARATON:

Dry fish on both sides, sprinkle with seasoning and drizzle with olive oil.

You can use a grill pan or your outdoors grill as well (or if you don’t have either just sear in a frying pan on your stove.)

Cook over high to get a good sear/grill mark on one side, then once it’s ready to turn it’ll release easily from the grill.

 Cook to desired fineness, I did both medium rare - about 5-6 minutes total on our electric grill.

STEWED WHITE BEANS

INGREDIENTS:

(3) T extra virgin olive oil

(1) t Rockerbox roasted garlic flakes

(1) small white onion, minced

(1) can white beans, rinsed

(1/2) cup water

Salt and pepper to taste

Bring a small pot to medium heat, add olive oil + roasted garlic flakes and onion.

Cook until onion has softened, about 3-4 minutes

Add white beans and water, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine.

Cook over a low simmer for 20 mins, stirring occasionally. Beans should be soft and mash a bit, and have a nice creamy texture.

Sun-dried Tomato and Caper Relish

INGREDIENTS:

(10) sun-dried tomatoes, medium dice

(2) T capers, rough chop

(3) T mixed olives, pitted and roughed chop

(2) T extra virgin olive oil

(1) t balsamic vinegar

(2) T grated Parmesan

(1/2) bunch fresh parsley, roughly chopped

Pinch of pul biber or mild chili flake

Salt and pepper to taste (capers, olives, and parmesan are salty, make sure you taste before adding additional salt)

You can make this easily by pulsing all ingredients together in a food processor. I chopped and mixed this by hand to get the desired chunkiness I was looking for.

Mix all together to combine and set aside. This relish tastes best if refrigerated several hours to allow flavors to come together, or made the night before.
