When Bill McCabe, owner of Bills Great Meals, a personal chef service, makes this salmon for his clients, they usually ask for the recipe. “This is one of the best recipes for salmon that I use because the pecans are a delicious, different compliment to the fish,” says Chef Bill. “My clients love to make this for their friends and they tell me that everyone always asks for the recipe.” Chef Bill cautions to keep an eye on the fish and never let it cook until pink. “That means the salmon is overdone,” says Chef Bill.Salmon with Pecan Crunch Coating4 (6 oz) salmon filletssalt and pepper2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard2 Tablespoons butter, softened1 ½ Tablespoons honey1/4 cup Panko or other breadcrumbs1/4 cup chopped pecans2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsleySprinkle salmon with salt and pepper.

Healthy Meals. -By: Long Island Personal Chef - Bill's Great Meals Bills Great Meals In the News House calls for meals Outsourcing our lives: Personal chefs cater to a growing clientele Ã¢€” and not just the rich Good intentions of eating healthfully and staying fit often clash with the overbooked lifestyles many people lead. But some of those consumers "who want it all and want to maintain their sanity" are turning to personal chefs. Personal chefs have found a growing customer base not only among working couples with children but also single professionals on the run as well as people with dietary restrictions and seniors who want to remain independent.Unlike the private chef, the personal chef will shop and prepare the weeks meals all in a day, leaving clients with special preparation instructions. The customer essentially is paying for a supply of meals made with fresh ingredients and none of the preservatives and nitrates of frozen dinners and take-out food, said Candy Wallace, founder and executive director of the American Personal Chef Association. Her organization estimates the number of personal chefs nationwide at 8,000."My clients are basically dual-income families who do not have time to shop or cook," said Bill McCabe of Hauppauge-based Bills Great Meals. McCabe served as Houlihans Culinary Director and as General Manager for LongHorn Steakhouse in North Carolina. "But they range from $50,000 to the skys the limit." McCabe said he tries to modify menus so customers who are not wealthy can afford his services.Norman Haywood, a family practitioner who lives in Northport, warmed to the idea of a personal chef after comparing the price tag of frequently eating out against the cost of McCabes services. Haywood and his wife, Jeanette, a nurse who runs the busy practice with him, have a 25-year-old son attending SUNY Old Westbury and an 10-year-old daughter. They figured they were paying anywhere from $35 to $70 five to six times a week on eating out or ordering takeout. Now they spend between $450 and $525 for two weeks of McCabes personal chef services."We figured it was really cheaper than eating out, plus eating out became mundane," Haywood said. "It was either Chinese or Italian. We were excited when Bill came with so many different ideas about so many different dishes." Contact Bill at the following: www.BillsGreatMeals.com 631-630-0705
