Here's the Hawthorne's lunch today.
We had mahi mahi along with some moreover rice.
Remember, the Hawthornes don't have leftovers.
We have moreovers.
Before I start lunch,
let's start with the rice from the other night.
Wrap up the chicken and beans and rice
along with some slices of Monterey Jack cheese.
This burrito was topped with Mr. Hawthorne's
glorious Salsa Ranchero.
A quick nuke to melt the cheese
and the Hawthorne Boys are happy campers.
All of which leads to leftover rice and beans
which become moreoevers for lunch today.
Mr. Hawthorne applied some Montreal Steak seasoning
to the mahi mahi filet, which was $10.99/pound at Billy's Seafood.
Press lightly into the flesh.
We'd fried up bacon for breakfast
and Mr. Hawthorne used the bacon grease
to cook the mahi mahi.
Three to four minutes each side.
And again, do NOT mess with the fish.
Put it in a smoking hot pan
over medium high and leave it.
Don't try to move it or you'll tear the meat.
Leave it alone for 3-4 minutes,
then turn to the other side.
Here's lunch.
Mahi mahi.
Rice and black beans with chopped cilantro,
red onion, and my fresh homemade salsa.
Corn on the cob.
For quick and easy corn on the cob,
Mr. Hawthorne slices the ends off,
leaving the husk on,
and places the ear in the microwave
with the larger base of the ear to the outside of the turntable.
Nuke for 2 minutes for one ear.
For each additional ear in the microwave,
he tacks on an extra 1 1/2 minutes.
You may need to adjust for your microwave.
This is what works for us
and our microwave is about 700-800 watts.
We've been cooking our corn with your nifty microwave trick. Awesome!!!
