National Seafood Month: Seared Grouper with Lemon-Thyme Butter Sauce
October is National Seafood Month. While I am allergic to seafood, my family really enjoys it. I still have to keep up with good recipes. One of the recipes that I am sharing for seafood month is Seared Grouper with Lemon-Thyme Butter Sauce. This recipe uses grouper because it is relatively easy to obtain in many places. If grouper is not available, however, snapper, monkfish, tilefish, and many other mild, yet firm, white fish can be used instead. The pictures on this post feature golden tilefish, which is found all along the Atlantic coast of North America from Florida up through New England and into Nova Scotia. In terms of…

Dutch Oven Chicken & Rice with Spicy Peanut Sauce
Happy Sunday! I hope you are having a nice relaxing day. Keeping with my documentation of national days and recipes that go along with them — today is National Peanut Day. This recipe contains peanut butter (allergy warning!) made into a creamy spicy sauce.

I have bought many kitchen appliances and cooking pots and pans because I want to be prepared. Some I haven’t really needed. But that is not the case for my Dutch Oven. I love my Dutch Oven. This recipe uses a Dutch Oven. I…
