Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Add fish fillets and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky.

Lyonnaise Pomme Frites Preparation

  1. 3

    Cut and Soak Potatoes

    Cut russet potatoes into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick). Soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat canola oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the soaked potatoes in batches until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then sprinkle with salt and chopped parsley.

Macadamia Nut Pesto Preparation

  1. 5

    Make the Pesto

    In a food processor, combine macadamia nuts, basil leaves, parmesan cheese, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding more olive oil if necessary to reach desired consistency.
