Best 6 Fish With Grilled Salsa Verde Recipes

GRILLED FISH WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• To make the salsa verde, combine the garlic, anchovy fillet, salt and capers in a mini food processor and pulse to a paste. (Alternatively, use an immersion blender and combine the ingredients in a jar and blend to a paste.) Add the olive oil and parsley and blend to a purée. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If using within a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature. Otherwise, refrigerate. Allow to come to room temperature before using.
• Prepare a hot grill. When the grill is ready, season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides and brush generously on both sides with olive oil. Grill for about 3 minutes on each side, just until you can pull the flesh apart with a fork. Remove from the heat and serve with the salsa verde.

FISH WITH GRILLED SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Light a grill. (If you are lighting charcoal, use plenty of it.) Season the fish with the cayenne, salt it liberally and return it to the refrigerator. When the grill is hot, cook the tomatillos, jalapeño and onion slices, taking them off the heat when they are soft and charred. Remove the skin and seeds from the jalapeño and roughly purée it with the tomatillos in a blender or food processor. Transfer to a serving bowl. Chop the onion slices and stir them into the salsa verde with the cilantro. Season well with salt.
• When the fire has burned down to a medium heat (if you are using gas, simply turn down the flame), oil the fish and the grate. Grill the fish flesh side down first, turning once, until cooked through. The time will vary depending on the kind of fish and the heat of the fire but should not take more than 10 minutes. Thin the salsa with ¼ cup water until the consistency is more like Thanksgiving gravy than applesauce, and pass the bowl of salsa at the table.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH SALSA FRESCA

Steps:

• Add the tomatoes, jalapeño, onions, cilantro and lime juice to a bowl and mix to combine. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for at least an hour for all the flavors to come together.
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Drizzle the swordfish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Place on the direct-heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move to the indirect-heat side of the grill, close the lid and cook until cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the grill to rest, about 5 minutes. Serve the swordfish with the salsa spooned over the top.

GRILLED SALMON WITH CITRUS SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• For the salsa: Peel and trim the ends from each orange. Using a paring knife, cut along the membrane on both sides of each segment. Free the segments and add them to a medium bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, scallions, mint, capers, orange zest, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes. Toss lightly and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• For the salmon: Put a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush the grilling rack with vegetable oil to keep the salmon from sticking. Brush the salmon on both sides with the agave nectar and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill until the fish flakes easily and is cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Transfer the salmon to a platter and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• Spoon the salsa verde on top of the salmon or serve on the side as an accompaniment.
