FANTASTIC!!! Restaurant quality for sure.

My fiancee loved it... said (probably because she loves me lol) that my grilled salmon was better but this was epic.

The skin was crisp and the salmon was so juicy and flavorful.

My compliments for sure. A+++++

Awesome.. Glad you 2 enjoyed it ;)

I'm still working on the Brussel sprouts... I have the sear down and the flavor for the most part but it's the centers I can't get the REAL flavor into.

I'm going to try par boiling them in stock (beef maybe) 1st then cast iron skillet as the photos show.

Don't get me wrong... I HATED Brussel Sprouts as a boy... my mom (God love her) made awful, soggy ones. Terrible.

These were fantastic but only 'almost' epic

My fiancee told me to thank you... she said it was almost better the next day for lunch.

She said and I quote "Thank that guy... you know... that dude... for me.. because last night was awesome"

I said "What now????"

She said the poster... the NYR guy

I laughed :biglaugh:

Sear them with olive oil, garlic and celery salt/ pepper then deglaze with a little chicken stock (or beef stock, depending on what you're making with them)
Problem solved.

So I used about 5 cloves garlic... S & P (No celery salt) and seared them cut side down and didn't move them, then finished in the 425 oven (per ur recipe of salmon)

I also used tiny ones... thinking they w0uld be better small.

But the centers are still bland IMO (But I am a perfectionist)

The gal was very happy tho

Cut side down, meaning cut in half?
That would be the way I do it

Its deserved... I never liked salmon unless it was sushi for most of my life. That "fish" taste.

I went to Scotland in like 14 or 15 and was amazed at the flavor and have been trying (sometimes tragically and sometimes to heroic results) to come close

Your recipe was damn close to as good as I had in Scotland

Cudos! @NYR

I love when people tell me they don't like Brussel sprouts and I laugh because yeah... who did like them in the 70s 80s and 90s when Mom's didn't understand caramelization and searing and getting water out (not flavor) meant GOOD?

No one likes those awful things

I can eat mine the next day cold! Thats amazing!

Yeah, the palette also changes with age lol.
Do you have a cast iron skillet?
It makes all the difference in the world.
