Cut 1 med/lrg white onion into quarter rings. Saute in olive oil until just starting to brown. Add 1# of fresh green beans (ends snapped/cut) and saute for 5 min. Salt, pepper, garlic to taste. Saute 2-5 min more, until beans take on the bright blanched color. Add 1 cup water and 2 chicken bouillon cubes, cover the pan leaving a gap for steam and cook for 5-10 min. This step and the last step vary on time depending on just how tendercrisp you prefer your beans. Uncover and cook until the sauce is reduced to a "gravy" in the pan, about 5 min.

When you cut a king mackerel, or any other fish, into steaks, do you try to get between the vertebrae, or just whack them apart with a cleaver? I don't think I've ever steaked a fish, but for grilling this looks like something I'd like to try.

I use a Chefs knife style blade which has a lightly serrated edge. I can saw through most with one or two slicing motions, or simply smack it through with my hand.
Don't try this with a regular fillet knife, unless you like reshaping the ruined edge.
