Marinated Sirloin Steaks

Aight. First thing you need is a couple of dudes with a passion for well made food, and who're willing to cook.

Next you're going to need a little something for a marinade.

Measure out the liquid bits of your marinade. We used -
.5 cup fresh lemon juice,
a third cup evoo,
a quarter cup red wine vinegar,
and two Tablespoons of soy sauce

Then we minced up about a quarter cup of shallots. Added them to the marinade...

We also threw in two Tablespoons of fresh minced rosemary.

Place your steak in the marinade and turn to coat. Then cover and marinate.

And marinate... have a beer... it going to be at least a half an hour...

Then grill your steaks to your desired doneness.

For a side, we also grilled up some corn. It turned out excellent.

Miranda and David also have a garden overflowing with salad greens, so we plucked some and served it up.

Ummmm. Steak.
It's what's for dinner.

Can't beat that!

It was so good... Miranda caught me going in for seconds!

Lemon Time Cod

Take your Cod Piece, drop it on some foil, toss on some diced Shallot, some minced Garlic, some fresh chopped Thyme, diced Tomatoes, Lemon juice and zest. Top with Salt and Pepper to taste. Add 1-2 tbsp water for steam. Wrap up and bake to desired doneness.

Serve over steamed Asparagus.
Yum.
As an alternative you could put the tomatoes on fresh at the end or use Sun Dried Tomatoes...

Smash an Avacado into this mixture.


Fry 1 lb fresh veined and shelled Shrimp with Garlic and Kosher Salt and fresh cracked Pepper to taste.
