Not really a good idea for a week night since there are more than 25 ingredients many of which need some chopping. The worst is cilantro. Pulling the leaves off takes me a long time and this recipe called for a cup of chopped cilantro... that's a lotta cilantro!
Anyway, I did finally finish and it really was delicious and I am looking forward to having leftovers of this dish over the next couple of days.
I also made lemon garlic halibut. I sprinkled salt and pepper on fresh halibut and then marinated the halibut in minced garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil for about 20 minutes. Then I cooked the halibut over medium heat in a pan with some olive oil for about 6 or 7 minutes. Turned out great!
Dinner was late getting to the table and I spent about 2 hours in the kitchen on this meal! Of course, during that time I made a separate dinner for my daughter and helped her with plan a pool party while I cooked dinner.
This is another pretty healthy dinner. The tabbouleh is a little over 200 calories per serving and the halibut was about 150 calories for each 4 serving... so the dinner was just a little over 300 calories.
I am doing well on my diet and I have lost 10 lbs since April 12th, when I started tracking my weight and being disciplined about what I eat.
