Two weeks ago I thought Matthew McConaughey's skin could save my relationship with my girlfriend. Now I'm sleeping on a 62-year-old's Pinot Grigio soaked couch. <br /> <br />Ingredients: <br />Mahi-Mahi Fillet <br />1/2 Lemon <br />1 clove minced Garlic <br />1 tbsp. Butter <br />2 tbsp. White Wine <br />1/4 tsp. Thyme <br />Salt & Pepper (to taste) <br /> <br />Chef Stu Paprocki Contact Info: <br />• Twitter: @stupaprocki <br />• Facebook: https://facebook.com/stu.paprocki <br />• Email: stu.paprocki@gmail.com <br />• Tumblr: stupaprocki.tumblr.com <br /> <br />Bio: <br />I thought making it onto a cooking reality show would be my ticket to culinary fame, but that whole experience was a disappointment. Since then I have quit my job in a commercial kitchen and decided to start making my own cooking show, QUICK MEALS. This is episode 16. <br /> <br />Home is where the heart is, and good food brings family and friends together around the table. That's what I'm all about and that's what I want QUICK MEALS to be all about. <br /> <br />Recently I did something I never should have done. I was playing Mario Kart on the Wii gaming platform and foolishly selected the character Funky Kong on a track that doesn't suit his aggressively alternative lifestyle. I can't even type what happened next, but Funky Kong has caused some serious trouble for me on the raceway of life. <br /> <br />I was watching the movie Johnny Mnemonic alone in the dark yesterday and I got super emotional. Brooks is a calming influence, but unfortunately he wasn't around to talk to. He's the equipment manager for a Little League Baseball team and they had a game. At this point in my life, being hunted by assassins sounds better than lugging around all these horrible memories. So, if there's any corporation, or even a hobbyist, looking for a brain to implant a cybernetic device in, I think I'm ready to become chef Stu Mnemonic. <br /> <br />Recipe: <br />Start off by preheating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. <br /> <br />Take your half of a lemon and slice it into thin disks. Place 3-4 of them in the middle of your baking dish and place your mahi-mahi (skin side down, if your filet has skin on it) on top of your lemon disks. <br /> <br />Then it's time to sprinkle some thyme on your mahi-mahi. Follow that thyme with your minced garlic. Then cover your filet with your remaining lemon slices. Top it all off with a slice of butter. Then splash on some white wine. <br /> <br />Place your baking dish in your 400 degree oven. In about 20 minutes you'll have yourself another quick and delicious meal sure to make your taste buds PAP!
