Had to have a fast dinner tonight.

We had to have a fast dinner tonight as the cab for the truck was coming. I did pirogies drizzled with EVO and dizzy pig. then foil pouches with one thin sliced yellow squash out of the garden, a Talapia fillet with a slice of lemon and dill seasoning and a dot of butter. all finished in 8 minutes!




and the reason for the fast dinner

The cab to our 1953 F-100 was coming home tonight after being painted. Hubby was to happy to eat! now the fenders and the box goes in to be painted and he has to sand and seal the oak for the bed. the fenders and box are dark chocolate red/brown. very pretty!

just curious,
i see a lick of flame under the parchment with the fish. do you ever have a problem with the paper igniting on a direct cook ? i have always done them indirect but this lends the need to experiment some more.

do you cook your perogies frozen or thawed?

looks like parchment not foil and it looks real good. have not done parchment or phyllo in 20 yrs and it is time details??? temp? burn thru???
thanks

I just pulled off 2 pieces of, 20 inches of parchment paper added the thin sliced squash, laid the fish on top of it sprinkled with dill seasoning and a dot of butter. folded corner to corner and rolled the edges to close and really twisted the two ends to help seal. The pirogies were frozen and just tossed in a bowl with dizzy pig and evo. put the fish on direct or 3 minutes and added the pirogies top down for 2 minutes and flipped them over and left for another 3-4 minutes till hot and golden. served with salsa. fish was perfect. it was also frozen when I put it in the pouch. so it is a FAST cook.flames did lick a little at the edges but nothing burnt.
The truck is total frame off restoration. :blink: he was out there at 3 am this morning patting it and rubbing it. LOL I will never have to worry about any blonde's in motels this man can't get away from his garage!

I bought some perogies last night for the first time in 20 years. They were a staple for me in college. Did you thaw them first? What was the dome temp? They look great. Would have never thought to add the dizzy dust.
