Salmon Scampi With Wine Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
1 1/2 lb salmon fillets
2 tbsp bacon drippings
6 tbsp butter or margarine
1 garlic clove - crushed and minced
1/2 tsp oregano leaves
1/2 tsp thyme leaves
1 tsp whole tarragon
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup dry marsala wine
Recipe
Preparation
Trim fillets to 1-1/2" pieces-uniform thickness. In frying pan,
slowly cook 1-2 strips of bacon, or enough to yield 2 tablespoons
drippings. Remove bacon and use for another dish. Saute the salmon in
the bacon drippings over medium heat, turning gently. Remove to a
baking dish and keep warm. Deglaze pan with a little of the wine and
scrape the residue from the pan over the fish. Meanwhile, in a small
saucepan, melt the butter and add the garlic and spices. Cook,
stirring over medium low heat, for 2-3 minutes to extract the
flavors. Remove from heat and add the wine and lemon juice. Pour this
sauce over the fish. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 10 minutes. Serve
over rice, spooning pan juices over all. Garnish with lemon wedges
and finely chopped parsley.
Variation: Substitute dry white wine for the Marsala for a lighter,
less rich dish.

Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eating
In planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
Some lower carb diet pointers:
* Eat regular meals
Most reduced carbohydrate recipes are, you won't be surpised to learn, low in carbs. We all need energy, and carbohydrates are a very efficient energy source. A low carb diet requires more care in monitoring you energy levels, as the energy provided by protein and fat is much slower acting.
* Read food labels
Be sceptical of food packaging that claims to be 'low carb' - check the nutritional information figures on the reverse of the tin or packet. Some are only marginally lowered and in some cases still higher than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are exactly the same.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, leeks and welsh onion)
The onion and garlic family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Although there is precious little hard medical proof obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought by nutritionalists to reduce the symptoms of colds, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also low in calories, so should be included in your diet system.
