15 Minute Dinner

I usually plan our meals for the week but sometimes for one reason or another I don't get to. This week is one of those week. I guess I'll blame it on our birthday. My mom and I had our joint birthday party Sunday. Monday was spent recovering from the previous night's festivities. Tuesday the family went out to The Melting Pot for dinner. Yesterday was a very long day at work and really didn't feel like doing some chopping and cooking and all that hoopla...So for days like those simple goes along way and grilling is definitely a savior.

I had Vince defrost the salmon fillets I knew we had in the freezer. When I got home it's all thawed out and all i had to do was brush on a little bit of olive oil, seasoned it with salt, pepper, basil and rosemary.

Threw the fish on the grill 4 minutes on each side.

I also took 2 romaine lettuce hearts - cut them in half  - lengthwise - drizzled a little bit of olive oil and balsamic vinegar and threw that on the grill a few minutes on side - enough to give it some char - 4 minutes total.

When the fish is done - the lettuce should be too. Chopped the lettuce - added a bit more olive oil and balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.

Delicious dinner in 15 minutes!
