SALT-BAKED FISH WITH LEMON-OLIVE RELISH



Salt-Baked Fish with Lemon-Olive Relish image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 2 1/2- to 3-pound whole red snappers, striped bass or black sea bass, scaled and gutted (fins and gills removed)
Freshly ground pepper
1 bunch fresh parsley
1/2 cup fennel seeds
2 3-pound boxes kosher salt (about 17 cups)
Grated zest of 2 lemons, plus 3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 cups egg whites (about 24 ounces)
1/3 cup Castelvetrano or other sweet green olives, pitted and finely chopped
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Rinse the fish inside and out and pat dry with paper towels. Season inside and out with pepper. Finely chop 2 tablespoons parsley and set aside. Divide the remaining parsley between the fish cavities.
  • Toast the fennel seeds in a dry medium skillet over medium heat until golden, about 4 minutes. Grind the toasted fennel seeds in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle; transfer all but 1 tablespoon to an extra-large bowl. Add the salt and lemon zest, then stir in the egg whites until the mixture is the consistency of wet sand.
  • Pat a thin layer of the salt mixture, slightly larger than the shape of the fish, on each of 2 rimmed baking sheets. Put the fish on top of each salt pile, then cover completely with the remaining salt mixture, following the shape of the fish and patting down the salt mixture. Before the fish is fully encased, mark the thickest part of each fish behind the neck with a paring knife and make a small hole in the salt mixture (this is where you?ll insert a thermometer).
  • Bake the fish until the crusts are golden and a thermometer inserted into the marked spots registers 140 degrees F, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the relish: Mix the olives with the olive oil, lemon juice, reserved 2 tablespoons parsley and 1 tablespoon ground fennel, 1 tablespoon water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Set aside until ready to serve.
  • To remove the salt, crack the crusts all the way around the fish with a paring knife; discard the crusts. Slide a spatula under each end of the fish and transfer to a platter or cutting board. To serve, remove the top fillet of each fish with a butter knife or spoon; discard the skin. Pull off the bone; discard the bone and head. Remove the skin from the bottom fillet. Serve with the lemon-olive relish.

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Four 6-ounce-thick cod fillets
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1 cup blood orange juice
1 blood orange, zested, supremed and coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Remove the fish from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
  • Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and bring the pan to a high heat.
  • Pat the fish dry with paper towels and sprinkle both sides with salt.
  • When the oil is very hot but not smoking, gently add the fish to the pan. DO NOT try to move the fillets. After 2 to 3 minutes, shake the pan gently and the fish should unstick itself. If the pan was hot enough, it will release. If not, using a fish spatula, GENTLY scrape it from the bottom of the pan. Cook the fish for 1 more minute and then turn it over, placing it on a wire rack set in a sheet tray. Transfer to the oven and cook until cooked through, another 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Ditch the oil from the pan and add the orange juice, zest, chopped oranges, sugar, vinegar, thyme and a pinch of salt. Bring the liquid to a boil (BTB), reduce it to a simmer (RTS) and reduce the liquid by half. Taste and adjust the seasoning. The sauce should have a great tangy, sweet and sour mix.
  • Spoon the sauce over the seared cod and serve immediately.

BAKED COD WITH ORANGE, CAPER AND OLIVE SAUCE



Baked Cod with Orange, Caper and Olive Sauce image

Categories     Citrus     Fish     Olive     Bake     Low Fat     Orange     Cod     Spring     Healthy     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 orange
1/2 cup finely chopped seeded plum tomato
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons minced red onion
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
4 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced pitted Kalamata olives or other brine-cured black olives
1 tablespoon chopped drained capers
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
4 6-ounce cod fillet pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500°F. Using vegetable peeler, remove peel and white pith from orange. Cut twenty 2-inch-long, 1/8-inch-wide strips from orange peel and reserve. Chop orange; place in small bowl. Add tomato and next 7 ingredients to chopped orange; stir to blend. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Spray 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish with nonstick spray. Arrange cod in prepared dish. Sprinkle orange strips evenly over fish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until fish is opaque in center, about 10 minutes. Spoon sauce over fish.

Tips:

  • To ensure your fish is cooked perfectly, use a meat thermometer to check its internal temperature. It should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for flaky and tender results.
  • Feel free to experiment with different types of fish such as salmon, cod, or halibut. Each fish has its unique flavor and texture that will complement the orange sauce.
  • If you want a thicker sauce, you can add a cornstarch slurry made by mixing equal parts cornstarch and water. Stir this mixture into the sauce and bring it to a simmer until it thickens.
  • For a more vibrant orange color, use freshly squeezed orange juice and zest. Bottled orange juice and zest can also be used, but they may result in a less intense flavor.
  • Garnish your baked fish with fresh herbs such as parsley or cilantro for an extra pop of flavor and color.

Conclusion:

Baked fish with orange sauce is an easy and delicious seafood dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky and tender fish, vibrant orange sauce, and fresh herbs, this dish is sure to impress. So next time you're looking for a quick and flavorful meal, give this recipe a try.
