The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment.

I don't usually plan my dinner menus out ahead of time. Rather, I buy whatever protein (a) looks fresh or (b) is on sale at the grocery store/farmer's market, and plan my menu from there. Once in a while, it means cooking things that I've never cooked before. On rare occasions, it means cooking things I'm not sure I've ever before. (I'm a rebel like that.) Recently, I found myself at Whole Foods trying to decide between shrimp (which I'd both cooked and eaten before) and turbot (which I may have eaten once upon a time, but definitely had never cooked). But shrimp is so... shrimp. So turbot it was. Noticing that it had a flaky white texture like a halibut or snapper, I decided that it would benefit from some sort of acidic preparation, and away I went. The below recipe was entirely improvised, but it turned out so well that I'm definitely making it again!
