With little prep involved, this is a great last-minute, easy dinner for the family.
Any firm white fish works well.
The breading is not too overwhelming, but adds a delicious crunch.

Serve it with leafy greens or thinly sliced oven-baked potatoes.
For super-thin veggies, use a mandoline for slicing.
The pineapple also concentrates as it bakes and helps keep the rice mixture from becoming too dry.

This way their juices seep right into the rice, and the teriyaki drizzle coats every bite.

Here, we use sea bass, a tender, mild-flavored fish with a lovely buttery quality.
Any of these white-fleshed fish will take well to the bright flavors of the simple grapefruit-and-orange topping.
Broiled Salmon with Lemon
For quick weeknight meals, go for the broiler.

Don’t sweat it if you slightly overcook the salmon.
We promise you’ll want these more often than just on Taco Tuesdays.
Serve them with a side of black beans or yellow rice to round out your meal.

Serve with tartar sauce, white-and-wild rice and steamed broccoli.
Fill out the plate with a side of steamed green beans.
They can be seared or sauteed and then added to salads and pastas or served solo as an entree.

Their mild taste and universal appeal make them a good host for complex flavors.
Look for dry-packed sea scallops at your local seafood market.
They haven’t been soaked in a liquid solution, which increases their weight and sodium content.

There is just enough buttery sauce to coat the shrimp.
The trick is to not over-reduce the sauce when cooking it.
It’s better to make it a little more saucy then dry.

Serve with steamed asparagus.

This is the classic New England lobster roll recipe: a basic hot dog bun filled with lobster salad.
There are no fancy seasonings here; the lobster is showcased in a simple mayonnaise dressing.

This salad is also great over greens for a main dish.
