1

Make the Brussels sprout salad

  • Trim the ends from the Brussels sprouts; thinly slice the sprouts.
  • Coarsely chop the walnuts.

In a medium bowl, toss together the Brussels sprouts, walnuts, dried cranberries, Caesar dressing, half of the sherry vinegar (saving the remainder for another use), and 2 teaspoons [4 tsp] oil; season to taste with salt and pepper.

2

Prep and cook the fish

  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt and pepper.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking.

 

For salmon: 

Add the fish and cook until lightly browned on the bottom side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes.

 

For snapper: 

Add the fish, skin side down, and cook until the skin is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes. 

 

For halibut:

Add the fish and cook until lightly browned on the bottom side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes.
