Two Nights In One

  Here is tonight's dinner first. It's shorter and I know what I did.

  I took some ground beef that was 10% fat, added salt, pepper, Chinese 5 spice, 1 tbls. of chili sauce (made by sriracha), 1/2 chopped onion, and 4 cloves of finely chopped garlic. I then made patties, put them in 375 degree oven and cooked them for about 15 minutes. 5 minutes before pulling them out I topped them with cheddar cheese. In a small skillet, I added olive oil, then added the other 1/2 of red onion sliced thinly, 1 large sliced mushroom, 1 small sliced red and orange sweet pepper. I put it on a cheap small burger bun, with some sweet and spicy ketchup. Oh and 1 sliced dill pickle. That's it!
                                               This was one big messy burger, but delicious!

 Now last night's dinner. Jake took 2 pieces of swai fish, seasoned with a mixture of ancho chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. He seared that in a skillet with olive oil. For the pasta he took the pan he cooked the fish in, added 3 chopped spring onions, or known as scallions or a larger green onion, along with 2 sliced mushrooms, 3 cloves chopped garlic, then added some white wine. He then added chicken broth and let it simmered, while the pasta cooked. He then added the pasta to the sauce and lastly he added some roughly chopped spinach. He served it with grated Parmesan cheese.
