hey kids! once again it's time for "ratsonjulia's recipe corner"!

today: swordfish steak for one!

you'll need:
an oven
a swordfish steak
some dill
a bulb of garlic
one (1) lime
foil
pam
a cookie sheet
one of those squeezy lemon-juice things

put some foil on the cookie sheet. spray with a spot of pam roughly the size of the steak. hoist steak with fork onto glistening pamspot. preheat oven to 375.

sprinkle dill on steak. (you may be asking yourself: Where the hell am I going to get dill at this time of night? or a freakin' swordfish steak for that matter? that's your problem, not mine.) peel & slice as much of the garlic as you can fit on the upward-facing surface of the steak. slice the lime into thinnish slices & lay it on top of the garlic. slide in oven.

you now have 25 minutes to either wash a plate & prepare a side dish of some kind, or else watch the rest of "King of the Hill".

let cool. give it a couple of squirts with the squeezy lemon thing. eat in front of tv.

there will be a stripe of dark hide around the steak. give this to the cat. --she won't eat it, but will instead hide it & drag it out later to lay in front of you as you are stumbling for the bathroom in the dark with bare feet. this will make her happy. a happy cat is less likely to suck out your breath while you sleep (scientific fact!)

enjoy!
