STRACCETTI DI PESCE SPADA
Steps:
- Slice the swordfish into 1/2 by 2-inch strips. Dust with flour and toss to evenly coat. In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil with garlic and chile peppers. Remove the garlic when golden brown. Shake off the excess flour from the swordfish strips and carefully place into hot olive oil. Season with salt and when the fish is golden in color, add the white wine. Let the wine reduce a little and then add the tomatoes. Reduce the tomatoes for approximately 3 minutes and add the black olives. Place on large plate and serve with fresh arugula.
STRACOTO E PORCINI
This is THE best roast I ever had. I found it on Everyday Italian by Giada De Laurentiis. It is definitely lip smacking good. Don't be afraid of the long instructions, it only looks like a lot of work.
