I always love a good fish recipe, so I was excited to see that this months challenge was a citrus and soy glazed swordfish. Since I don't live anywhere near the ocean, I have little experience buying fresh fish, so I decided to go with an Alaskan salmon filet I had in my freezer. I loved this dish because it came together so quickly and took minimal ingredients, most of which I already had on hand. I actually had some frozen yuzu peel left over from another Washoku Warrior challenge and used it to garnish the fish instead of the lemon zest. I'm so glad I did because the yuzu gave the dish such a distinctive flavor, it was unique and I feel it really made the dish! I served the fish with our favorite brown rice and steamed green beans, it was such a delicious Sunday dinner, everyone gave it two thumbs up!
ps.... do you like my new bangs?
Maya's two thumbs up were a little more enthusiastic!
Head on over to La Fuji Mama's site and see how everyone else did!

Looks delicious and yes the new bangs are really cute. Can't wait to see you in August.
Love your new bangs, and love the perfect plates for your yummy dish.
Love that serving dish. It does look yummy and your new haircut is darling. Miss you so much.
where oh where did you ever find frozen yuzu peel? it is *impossible* to find here!
Nicole, I found my yuzu peel at a Japanese market in the freezer section, it was pricy though! $11 for a tiny bag, but the flavor was unbelievable!
I too used yuzu peel as a garnish - having made the sauce with freshly squeezed grapefruit juice. I loved the combination of flavours and the hint of yuzu with the milder grapefruit sauce.
YUMMY!! That looks so tasty, I can't wait to make it!
LOVE the new bangs...so sassy!
