FISH FILLET WITH CLAM SAUCE
Steps:
- Depending on what kind of flatfish youre using, either remove the top dark skin by pulling it off or cutting it off with a sharp or - if the skin is relatively thin- leave it attached or scale it. Scrape the bottom white side to remove any scales and remove the sharp fins with scissors. (Or ask your fishmonger to do all of this.) Rinse the fish in cold water. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a 4-quart pot, bring the wine to a simmer with the shallots. Add the mussels or clams, cover, and steam until they open - about 7 minutes for mussels, 12 minutes for clams. Take the mussels or clams out of their shells, discard the shells, and reserve the meats. If the shellfish-steaming liquid is sandy, pour it slowly and carefully into a bowl, leaving the sand behind. Arrange the flatfish- dark skin side up- in a buttered or oiled dish that closely fits it and pour on the shellfish- cooking liquid. There should be enough liquid to come halfway up the sides of the fish. If there isnt, add some water or fish broth. Place the containers with the fish on the stove over medium heat until the liquid comes to a simmer. Loosely cover with aluminum foil and slide the fish into the oven . Braise for 5 to 12 minutes per inch of thickness. Carefully transfer the fish to individual platters or plates using a large spatula. Keep the fish warm while youre preparing the sauce. Strain the cooking liquid into a 2- quart saucepan and cook it down over high heat until 1/2 cup remains. Thicken the sauce by whisking in any optional thickeners and bringing it to a quick simmer. Once the sauce is thickened, add the lemon juice and parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste. Gently reheat the mussels or clams in the sauce - dont let it boil - and spoon the sauce and the mussels or clams over each fish.

Steps:
- Season cod all over with salt and pepper. Sprinkle flour over a large plate and, working one at a time, press side of fillet where skin used to be into flour to thoroughly coat. Tap off excess and set on a platter, flour side up.
- Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium. Cook cod, floured side down, shaking skillet occasionally to prevent sticking, until flesh is opaque and starting to flake around the sides and underside is golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Carefully turn cod over and reduce heat to low. Cook until cooked all the way through (flesh should be completely opaque), about 2 minutes (thinner pieces may go more quickly). Place on platter, golden side up; take care not to break up the delicate fillets.
- Turn heat back up to medium, pour remaining 2 Tbsp. oil into skillet, and cook shallot, stirring often, until tender and golden, about 2 minutes. Add wine; cook until almost completely evaporated, about 1 minute. Add clams and cover skillet. Cook until clams open, about 5 minutes (some clams might take a few minutes longer). Uncover skillet and transfer clams, discarding any that didn't open, to platter with cod.
- Reduce heat to low and add corn and butter to skillet. Cook, stirring, until butter is melted, sauce is thick and glossy, and corn is tender, about 3 minutes. Spoon corn mixture over fish and clams. Top with parsley; squeeze lemon wedges over.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Sprinkle fish inside and out with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Open the clams. There should be about one cup of shucked clams and one cup of clam juice. Put the clams on a flat surface and chop coarsely. Set aside the chopped clams and the juice.
- Heat two tablespoons of the butter in a saucepan, and add the onion, shallots, garlic, celery, green pepper, thyme and mushrooms. Cook, stirring, about five minutes. Do not burn.
- Add the clams, bread crumbs and beaten egg. Add salt and a generous grinding of black pepper.
- Place the fish on a sizable length of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Open up the cavity of the fish and stuff with the clam mixture. It will be quite full. Dot the top of the fish with two tablespoons of butter. Fold the foil over to contain the stuffing and keep it in place.
- Rub the bottom of a baking dish, large enough to hold the fish comfortably, with three tablespoons of butter. Add the fish. Pour the reserved clam juice and half of the wine around the fish, and place the dish on top of the stove. Bring the liquid to the boil. Place the dish in the oven and bake 30 minutes. Open up the foil. Pour the remaining wine into the pan and continue baking 45 minutes.
- Transfer the fish to a warm platter. Remove and discard the foil. Cover the fish with a clean sheet of foil to keep it warm.
- Place the baking dish on top of the stove and bring the liquid to the boil. Add the cream and stir. Pour and scrape this mixture into a saucepan, and bring it to a rolling boil. Swirl in the remaining two tablespoons of butter.
- Remove the top skin of the fish, leaving the skin on the head for decorative purposes. Pour the sauce over the fish and sprinkle with parsley. Serve the stuffing with portions of the fish.
