I'm free all day, and kinda bored. Kids are swimming at a friend's house til 5pm, wife is at work, and most of my friends are working or at the beach. When my neighbor dropped off some freshly caught black drum filets about 11am, i immediately sprung into action.
My menu: saut?ed drum sandwich with kale, spinach and lentil soup.
First I saut?ed onion, bell pepper, garlic, parsley, green onion and celery. Then I added dry lentils and mixed well to coat. Next, I added a box of organic vegetable broth, then added salt and pepper. After it came to a boil, I dropped to low and covered.
An hour later, I saut?ed some chopped yellow onion with 2 whole Texas-grown scotch bonnet peppers. I then removed the stems from the chilis and added several fist fulls of fresh kale and spinach. After saut?ing the spinach and kale, I added it to the lentil pot and left to simmer while I cook the fish.
I selected one large black drum filet and added salt, pepper and granulated garlic to both sides. I saut?ed in a hot skillet flipping only once.
I toasted 4 pieces of thin-cut sprouted grain bread and applied sportsaholic's peppercorn and chive aioli to one side of each piece of toast.
I then blended the spinach and lentil mixture on low. Soup came out tasty, but a bit too much heat. Next time only 1 scotch bonnet pepper.
I made 2 drum sandwiches consisting of bread, aioli and drum. Couldn't help but to eat both. Talk about delicious. No kidding, Sports' aioli made it pop.
