Ingredients
3 lb small red thin-skinned
1 potatoes
1 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 cup seasoned rice vinegar
1 about 1/2 pound watercress
1 rinsed and crisped
1 salmon fillet, about 2 lbs.
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp firmly packed brown sugar
2 cup alder or mesquite wood chips
1 soaked in water
1 salt
Directions
In a 5-to 6-quart pan, bring about 2 quarts water to a boil over high heat;
add potatoes. Cover and simmer over low heat until potatoes are tender
when pierced, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and chill.
Soak the onions about 15 minutes in cold water to cover. Drain and mix
onions with rice vinegar. Cut potatoes in quarters; add to onions.
Trim tender watercress sprigs from stems, then finely chop enough of the
course stems to make 1/2 cup (discard extras or save for other uses). Mix
chopped stems on a large oval platter with potato salad alongside; cover
and keep cool.
Rinse salmon and pat dry. Place, skin side down, on a piece of heavy foil.
Cut foil to follow outlines of fish, leaving a 1-inch border. Crimp edges
of foil to fit up against edge of fish. Mix soy sauce with brown sugar and
brush onto the salmon fillet.
Lay fish on center of grill, not over coals or flame. Cover barbecue (open
vents for charcoal) and cook until fish is barely opaque in thickest part
(cut to test), 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer fish to platter with salad. Add
salt to taste. Serve hot or cold.

Diet Grilled Salmon With Potato & Watercress Salad Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss systemsThe Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index diet is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and an indicator of the ease with which the glucose and energy in the food gets changed to glucose in the dieters body. The theory is that long-acting types of food (ie with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you feeling full longer and help you to eat less food without craving snacks all the time. It's also extremely good for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are helpful in managing increases in blood glucose secretion. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet started by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which stresses that dieters should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his weight loss system for people who have cardiac problems, based on his detailed study of scientific data completed on other weight loss regimes. Examples of good foods include, canadian bacon, skinless poultry, clams, fat-free cheeses, pecan halves, nonfat milk and certain vegetables, such as lentils, cabbage and water chestnuts. The Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systms over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow weight reduction whilst allowing you to eat foods that are normally considered bad for diets, for example meat and some dairy produce. With the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is often referred to as a low carb/high protein, diet. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. |
