Mr. Hawthorne Cooks Dinner.

Mr. Hawthorne stopped at Billy's Seafood on the way home from work yesterday and picked up a nice fillet of rockfish.
Holding the end of the fillet, Mr. H. just drew his knife down the length and sliced the skin off.
Next, he pulled out all the little bones.
Salted, peppered, lemon juiced, and buttered the fillet. Cooked at 350 for about 15 minutes, until the meat flaked easily.
While the fish was cooking, he was doctoring up the tomato sauce I'd made the other day for my calzones. Just added a bit of heavy cream to the sauce.
Then he cooked some linguine in chicken broth. (OK, he used chicken bouillon.)
And chopped up a tomato to add to the sauce.
He plated the fish over a bed of linguine and topped it with the tomato sauce and some fresh parsley.
Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne, for a light, flavorful, delicious meal.
Easy on the eyes, too.
The creamy tomato sauce was very palatable and light enough so that it didn't mask the flavor of the fish. The parsley added a nice freshness and greenery to the dish. Very enjoyable meal.
