Chili & Tomato Fish + Avocado, Tuna & Orzo Salad


Chili & Tomato Fish

It's IHCC's potluck week. Ever since I joined IHCC's weekly blog hop event, I have cultivated this habit and routine of planning my meals based on their weekly themes. At times when I want to cook or bake something beyond the themes, I will start with searching for recipes from IHCC's listed chefs. I have discovered so many precious recipes, different cuisines, and learned new techniques. That's why I stay put with IHCC for the past one year. :)

I joined IHCC when they introduced Diana Henry. My first linky submission was Diana's Roast Chicken Thigh with Autumn Fruits & Quinoa in early October 2014. I couldn't believe one year has passed!

For this week's potluck, I have cooked Nigella's Eggs in Purgatory. But I'm in the mood of cooking more dishes. So, I cook two Donna Hay's "fishy" recipes. They are Chili & Tomato Fish and Avocado, Tuna & Orzo Salad. :)


Recipe adapted from DonnaHay.com.

Ingredients:
(Serves 2)

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1/4 teaspoon dried chili flakes
1 slice (about 200g) ikan tenggiri
1 (400g) can no-salt-added chopped tomatoes, with its juices
1 cup cooked veggie macaroni, al dente

How to:

1. Heat up oil over medium-high heat in a frying pan. Add chopped onions and chili flakes. Cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes.

2. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on the fish, add to the pan and cook for 5 minutes each side.

3. Increase the heat to high, add tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes. Add macaroni and stir well until they are coated with the sauce. Serve hot.


And now, the second recipe.


Avocado, Tuna & Orzo Salad

Recipe adapted from here.

Ingredients:
(Serves 2)

1 ripe avocado, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 can (170g) tuna flakes in oil
1 cup cooked orzo pasta
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 handful lightly salted mixed nuts (cashew, macadamia, almond)

Mix all in one bowl and eat!
