FRESH GRILLED ONO

DINNER AT HOME

Happy to find super fresh Ono for a really low price at Foodland Farms.  This fish was so moist and meaty.  Delicious!  Served with a Papaya Salsa and Guacamole Tower along with a White Wine Cream Sauce.  Definitely a restaurant quality meal at home.

Enjoyed a quick meal at Sammy's Beach Bar and Grill at the Kahului, Maui airport.  The Caesar Salad with Ono was actually pretty darn good for airport food.  Fish was fresh and delicious. Enjoyed with a nice Chalk Hill Chardonnay.

DINNER AT HOME

I nailed the sauce for this fresh Ono but overcooked the fish.  You don't want to overcook Ono as it becomes really firm fast.

LUNCH AT HOME

Good Friday means no meat eating for the day in this family so I made Grilled Ono Sandwiches for lunch.  Grilled the buns, made homemade Tarter Sauce (Mayonnaise/Sweet Pickle Relish) and layered fresh vegetables like making a burger.  This was the perfect Fish Sandwich and better than most all restaurants where I have eaten Fish Sandwiches.  Really that good!

FRESH INGREDIENTS AND HOMEMADE TARTER SAUCE MAKE THIS THE BEST!

Fresh Hawaii Ono was on sale so I picked some up and cooked this delicious meal.  Made a quick sauce using White Wine, Chicken Stock, Cream, Garlic and Butter.  Restaurant quality meal!

Amazed when I hit the market and found super fresh Hawaii Ono for $3.99 per pound.  For comparison, Mahi Mahi was $13.99 per pound.  Imagine a fresh fish dinner for three for under $10 total I thought.  Got home and pulled together a great sauce for this dish.  Sauteed Shallots and Garlic and then deglazed with White Wine.  Added Cream and some Butter and Bam!  One delicious sauce that was perfect for the pasta and Ono.  This was good.  Real good.  Super good.

DINNER AT HOME

Trying really hard to get my diet back on track and stick to healthier dishes.  The market had the usual Mahi Mahi at $15.99 per pound and fresh Hawaiian Ono for $12.99 per pound.  I went for the Ono.  Ono is a close relative to the King Mackerel and means "sweet, very good to eat" in Hawaiian.  I grilled the Ono on an Indoor Grill Pan with Pam Cooking spray to reduce calories and fat.  My calories and fat came from the sauce that consisted of reduced chicken stock, creme, butter and orange juice.  Had to use orange juice because I did not have lemon.  Turned out great.  Served with Jasmine Rice and steamed broccoli.  Entire family loved this meal.  I will make it again and again.
