Anytime 17th St. Market has a "wild mix" of random fish cuttings, I get it. It is always super cheap and fresh and not to mention very pretty. This particular mix was full of little bits like squid and octopus. Last night's dinner was a stunning color combination: Green, Red, Butternut Yellow, Blue, White, and Glossy Dark Brown (Balsamic).
1/2 LB of Wild China Mix
Romaine Hearts
Blueberries
Balsamic Glaze
Olive Oil
Flour
Salt & Pepper
Wild China needs to be locked in a bag full of flour and salt and pepper for a couple of minutes while you are waiting for your oil to get piping hot. Once hot, throw those beauties in and turn over when they are a golden butternut yellow.
Salad is as easy as it can get. Just some romaine hearts with blueberries and a olive oil and balsamic glaze. Very light. I couldn't get over all of the colors on the plate, there was a piece of fish that was in my mix that I couldn't identify, but it was the nicest hue of those really red sunsets that we are lucky to see every once in awhile in Tucson.
Eaten after the rain with a glass of white wine while listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival. Someday never comes....
