GO ON. YOU WERE SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT "BEST INTENTIONS"?? We really meant to watch Top Chef tonight, but it got lost in the mix. Here's what we did instead:

Slightly Savory Salmon w/ Red Pepper Rice

Chop 1 onion and carmelize slightly on stovetop in 1/4 stick butter with fresh thyme
Place 2 1/4lb portions of salmon in pan atop 2" sprigs of rosemary
Dump onions, thyme and butter atop salmon
Place in oven at 350 degrees for 30 mins

Chop 1 red pepper and soften on stovetop in 1/4 stick butter with bay leaf and fresh thyme and dash salt
Raise heat to not-messing-around and add 3 cups water and 1 cup rice
Cut back to a simmer as it boils
Remove from heat in time to plate with salmon

Suggested pairing: Castelli di Luxxano 2006 "Tasto di Seta" Colli Piacentini Malvasia

So did we win? I bet Tre won...
