; scrubbed and beards
; cultivated,
; removed, or 24
1 c Dry white wine
1 lb Mussels; preferably small
2 Shallots or 1 medium onion;
1/4 c Garlic; potato, asparagus,

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.

Skillet Cod, Clams, and Corn with Parsley image

Who says clam sauce is only good for pasta? Not this buttery corn-studded dish.

Provided by Claire Saffitz

Categories     Bon Appétit     Seafood     Fish     Shellfish     Cod     Clam     White Wine     Corn     Summer     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 lb. skinless cod fillet, cut into 4 pieces, patted dry
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1/3 cup dry white wine
12 littleneck clams, scrubbed
2 medium ears of corn, kernels cut from cobs (1-1¼ cups)
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup chopped parsley
Lemon wedges (for serving)

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.

Baked fish with clam stuffing image

Provided by Craig Claiborne And Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, project, sauces and gravies, main course

Time 1h45m

Yield Four to six servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 three-pound fish (such as striped bass or red snapper), cleaned with gills removed but head and tail left on
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
12 large cherrystone clams, approximately
9 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup finely chopped onion, about 1/4 pound
3 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
1/2 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped green pepper
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped, fresh thyme, or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1 1/2 cups finely chopped mushrooms, about 1/4 pound
1 cup fine, fresh bread crumbs
1 whole egg, lightly beaten
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley

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.

FILLET OF FISH WITH LEEK SAUCE



Fillet of Fish With Leek Sauce image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 skinless, boneless fillets of scrod, about 1 1/4 pounds (see note)
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3 leeks, about 1 1/2 pounds
9 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup fish broth or bottled clam juice
1/4 cup finely chopped chives or parsley
4 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Steps:

  • Sprinkle fish on all sides with salt and pepper.
  • Trim off root ends of leeks. Cut each leek crosswise in half. Put upper green portion to another use, such as soup, or discard.
  • Slice white part of leek lengthwise and rinse thoroughly between the leaves. Cut into thin strips, then into very thin cubes. There should be about 3 1/2 cups.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet and add shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add leeks. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes and add wine and fish broth or clam juice. Cover closely and cook 5 minutes. Uncover and cook until most of the liquid evaporates. Swirl in 6 tablespoons of butter and the chives or parsley. Add salt and pepper.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a large, heavy skillet and add fish fillets. Cook about 2 minutes on one side or until golden brown. Cook about 1 minute on second side. Cooking time will depend on thickness of fillets. This may have to be done in two batches.
  • Spoon equal batches of the leek mixture into centers of four warmed plates. Cover each portion with one cooked fillet. Spoon 1 teaspoon of lemon juice over each fillet and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of clams. Mixing different types of clams, such as littlenecks, cherrystones, and steamers, will add depth of flavor to the sauce.
  • Don't overcook the fish. Fish fillets are delicate and cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. They should be cooked through but still flaky and moist.
  • Serve with your favorite sides. Fish fillets with clam sauce can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, pasta, potatoes, or vegetables.
