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
If you enjoy eating, but want to get in shape and improve your overall vitality, then, as most people know, you need to start a thoughtfully prepared well-balanced meal plan. In a perfect world, this needs to contain 5 standard portions of grains, fruit and vegetables daily and embrace the right proportion of food types.
The argument against low carb diets
Its popular as hell, but it is really safe for you?
Many scientific studies over the years have illustrated that high consumption of animal fat can lead to increased probability of cancer, heart problems and other inflammatory disorders.
Remember, one point that is often overlooked, it is very hard (although not totally impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a reduced carbohydrate diet.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, onions and welsh onion)
The onion family is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is very little scientific evidence obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought to help with antiinflammatory effect, high blood pressure and diabetes.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also low in calories, so should be a part of every diet system.
