Not only do I have an incredible salmon recipe to share with you today, but a virtual baby shower celebration (and giveaway) for my dear friend Michelle of Vitamin Sunshine and her new adorable son, Xander! A group of food bloggers and I got together to throw Michelle this virtual "Under the Sea" themed baby shower to celebrate her new journey in motherhood and hopefully ease her back into blogging again soon πŸ˜‰ Although, I think spending every second with this precious gem is much better <3

Virtual "Under The Sea" Baby Shower for Xander | Strength and Sunshine @RebeccaGF666

So we have an entire menu planned out, full of appetizers, drinks, mains, sides, and desserts! My contribution was a main dish with the one and only fish, SALMON! I'm pretty sure salmon is my favorite fish. The rich, buttery, salmon taste just gets me swooning every time. I'm pretty partial with keeping my salmon simple with some honey mustard and basil on a normal day, but this is a special occasion and called for an extra special salmon recipe!

There are tons of ways to top a blank-slate protein. Evidenced by chicken, but also with the lovely salmon. We're just endingΒ Hatch Chili Season, my first season with them, and I made sure to make it memorable. I had to wait awhile, but Frieda's sent me a TON of (mild) hatch to work with this year. When they talk about the amazing aroma of hatch chilis roasting in the oven, they mean it! I can't even tell you how wonderful the house smelled! This deep, roasted, spicy smell that's hard to describe. It was amazing! I made sure to freeze some once roasted so I'd be stocked up for the "off season" as they say πŸ˜‰

Even though these came from a mild batch, I was still nervous they would be too spicy. So to ton it down (in case, but they actually weren't that spicy), I created a salsa with some balance. Balance in the form of sweet, crunchy jicima! The one veggie I still hadn't totally come to love and use properly had been jicima. The first time I tried it (raw), it was terrible. That was years ago and I was determined to find a way to love it. I decided it would be the perfect balance to some spicy chilis in a "salsa" topping for this salmon. I read that roasted jicima is fantastic, so when I roasted the hatch, I threw the chopped up jicima on the pan with them. Then I threw all that roasted goodness in the processor and make the perfect roasted salsa topping to put on the salmon, and then roast it all again in the oven!

The fact that I roasted the chilis and jicima first, and then it was baked again, created the perfect crusty crunchy topping on the salmon. It really was fantastic! Each bite had a bit of spice, some mild sweetness in the background from the jicima, and that buttery richness from the glorious salmon. It was a pretty special fillet! One that was perfect to bring to Michelle's shower!

    I've never had hatch chili, but I'm definitely looking forward to giving it a try. I've also only had jicama raw, and we really liked the crunch. I bet roasting and then baking it gave it a great crispness. πŸ™‚

    I am embarrassed to admit that I don't know what a hatch chili is...the can looks like an Anaheim. Are they the same? Is the name a regional one because I've never heard of them.

    This does look delicious, is the topping crisp? It looks like it from the picture. There is a jicama on my kitchen counter and i intend to try it tomorrow night.

    Salmon is by far my favourite fish, and it was the first fish I ever agreed to eating when I was younger (not even too long ago haha).

    I've never cooked with jicama, though I have eaten it before. Looks delish, so will definitely keep this as a future go-to when I have a kitchen again! X

    I live in New mexico and the months of Aug and Sep the stores roast green chile if you buy it, so the stores all smell wonderful. Here we buy it in 30 pounds sacks.

    So this is what became of the jicama and the hatch chilis! Taking them all out in one swoop! This is an adorable virtual baby shower idea, bloggers definitely know how to make a mouthwatering menu! And while the chili part is scares my anti-spice side, the roasted then food-processed jicama makes for an awesome texture! Is it crunchy or more like potato texture or somewhere in the middle?

      I know! I went all out πŸ˜‰ Killin' 2 birds with one stone!
      I think it's kinda in the middle, but it isn't too spicy! The roasting and jicima (and my mild hatch) really helped! You must top the hemp tofu with this πŸ˜‰ Deal?

    I absolutely love hatch chilis! This recipe sounds so great and I cannot wait to spice up my salmon with it. I bought a bunch of the chilis and froze some so I can have them year-round, and I am always looking for more ways to use them. Sadly, so many of the recipes are just loaded with cheeses, breads, etc. This sounds amazing!
