By themselves, their value is fantastic; it's what people start putting on them that ruins it: cream or butter sauces, etc. Most of the time, I just like to wrap them in foil with a ton of spices, and throw them on the grill. Of course, there's nothing like grilled lean beef or chicken, either..... Yum! And I know what you mean about the time of season - as soon as the temp goes up, something starts a-stirrin' in me (maybe elevated Test...LOL!) making me feel like I gotta go burn something! -------------- Michael "Trample the weak; hurdle the dead!"

I put 'em in a zipper bag with a little olive oil, some lemon juice and a crushed clove of garlic for an hour before grilling. The trick is to not overcook 'em. Swordfish and halibut steaks are good this way too! You can also make kabobs by cutting the fish into large chunks before marinating and put on skewers with large pieces of purple onion, colored peppers, mushrooms, squash, etc. Add a little wild rice and you've got dinner! -------------- ~Victoria~ ...Some things have to be believed to be seen!

I was grilling salmons steaks and steak outside my apt., there was a guy who lived in the same complex as me that was kind of off a bit. I always tried to talk to him. Well, anyway, I was q'ing up this stuff, had them almost completely done, he comes over and asks what I was doing, picks up the plate and puts his nose right on the food!! "This smells great!" I didn't know what to do! Needless to say, I ditched all the food, what a drag. I guess you had to be there. -------------- As far as genetics go, the skies the limit.
