The flavors of farm stand tomatoes, garlic, shallots, balsamic vinegar and honey infuse the fish for a sweet and healthy dish. Cod, halibut or haddock work best—or any meaty white fish. Sweet summer tomatoes are a special treat and will burst with flavor once they’re roasted with these ingredients. The […]
Gremolata is a zesty Italian herb sauce that makes the perfect accompaniment to fish, chicken, pasta and the list goes on. (We added the leftovers to a scramble the next day). The Calabrian Chiles add the heat and color that makes this dish a standout. This recipe calls for a […]

“Acqua pazza,” or “crazy water,” refers to the southern Italian tradition of cooking the day’s catch in seawater. At its core this is a clean, simple, elegant and foolproof dish that could easily be a weeknight meal. For the fish, I chose cod but any meaty white fish works. It’s a […]

This sea bass with soy glaze and cucumber salsa relies on a simple technique for delicious results. Simply sear the fish until browned but not cooked through. Then, you pour on the sauce which essentially steams the fish to doneness and reduces the sauce to a syrupy glaze. Serve with […]
Sole Meuniere is a classic French dish made with sole fillets. Dover sole is meaty and succulent, but with a delicate flavor. When it comes to cooking, the simplest way is the best, as in classic sole meunière, where butter and lemon subtly enhance the taste and texture. Sole Meuniere 4-6 […]

Three ingredients: orange juice, soy sauce, butter. This simple, rich citric sauce (another Keller stunner) is the perfect companion for Halibut. I could not love this dish any more!!!

Steaming fish in parchment paper (En Papillote) is not only easy, as Bobby Flay says, “it’s fool-proof.” I agree. This method of cooking looks and sounds fancy but is easy to pull together. When you bake the Grouper (or any meaty white fish), it steams to a perfect flakiness while […]

The cooking method known as En Papillote (pah-pee-YOHT) is a French cooking technique in which food is baked inside paper, typically parchment paper. The fish cooks quickly because it steams in its own flavorful juices. The papillote will puff up and the steam keeps the fish and vegetables moist. In this […]
Well, there is a first for everything ….and this was that!! Success. Cooking salmon on cedar planks creates a fragrant, smokey flavor that helps lock in the moisture AND prevents the fish from sticking to the grill. A glaze of maple syrup with ginger, garlic, soy and lemon juice […]
