Amazing 20 Minute Meal

Last week Jennie and I decided to try Jamie Oliver's Quick Salmon Tikka with Cucumber Yogurt--we're glad we did! It was amazing. The most amazing part is that such a good, wholesome dinner only took 20 minutes to make. I was really impressed by how quick the meal was. Especially because I'm usually the one who complains that I'm hungry and it's late and that we don't have time to make something healthy so we should just grab something quick--which often times is not as healthy. Luckily for me, the quick meal skeptic, Jamie Oliver's book has a whole section titled 20 minute meals.

The process was really easy. Just heat up some Naan, cut up cucumbers and a pepper and mix with some plain yogurt and then brush the salmon with tandoori paste and brown it on each side. The completed product was fabulous.


The only minor hiccup with the process is that Jennie bought a little too much salmon :) The recipe called for 14 oz of salmon, which for some reason Jennie thought meant 1.4 lbs! The salmon was really good though so it wasn't too much of a mix up, but next time we'll probably just go with the 14oz.
