When Jaden Hair of Steamy Kitchen contacted me regarding a favorite recipe she could feature on TLC, I instantly thought of my Crispy Halibut with Zucchini Ribbons. This dish  represents  my point of view in the kitchen on a lot of different levels.

As a lover of seafood, I like to let  fish take center stage, adding a few fresh elements to enhance  what’s already going on in the dish without pulling away the spotlight.

I am  a huge fan of dinner parties, focusing the  cooking classes I teach on dinner party fare.  This  entree makes a grand impression on the plate without a lot of effort; making it ideal for entertaining at home, at a fraction of what you would spend going out!

I like to peel  zucchini into ribbons and give them a quick simmer in coconut milk, which adds  color and a bit of movement to the plate. Simple little tricks like this can make a dish stand out.

Inviting  people “in” for dinner is a trend that continues to grow in our troubled economy,  and with a few tricks, you too can make a restaurant worthy meal at home.
