Best 5 Grilled Fish With Tarragon Beurre Blanc Recipes

GRILLED WHOLE MEDITERRANEAN FISH WITH AGED SHERRY-VINEGAR-TARRAGON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat. Brush the fish on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fill the cavities of both fish with orange slices, tarragon and parsley and place on the grill. Grill the fish for 6 to 7 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill, place on a platter and drizzle immediately with the Sherry Vinegar-Tarragon Vinaigrette.
• Combine vinegar, shallot, mustard, tarragon, and salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified. Adjust seasoning.

GRILLED CRAWFISH WITH SPICY TARRAGON BUTTER

Steps:

• Add the crawfish to a large pot of salted boiling water. Cook for about 30 seconds. Shock the crawfish in a bowl filled with ice water.
• Cut through the shell on the belly side the entire length of the crawfish. This will help the meat cook evenly. Remove the vein along the body as well as the sack behind the eyes. Rinse thoroughly.
• Combine the butter, hot sauce, tarragon and cayenne in a food processor. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Prepare a charcoal grill for direct grilling. Place the crawfish in a grill basket and grill until the shell turns bright red and the meat is opaque, about 5 minutes, shaking the grill basket occasionally.
• Meanwhile, melt the spicy tarragon butter in a saucepan or skillet. Remove the crawfish to a large platter or shallow bowl, season with salt and pepper and drizzle with the melted butter. Serve immediately.

GRILLED WHITEFISH WITH LEMON-TARRAGON SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil clam juice in heavy small saucepan until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 5 minutes. Transfer to blender. Add fresh lemon juice and tarragon leaves. Blend mixture until tarragon is finely chopped. With machine running, gradually add 3/4 cup oil and blend well. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
• Position rack 6 inches from boiler. Preheat broiler. Brush fish with 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Place skin side down on heavy large baking sheet. Broil until opaque in center without turning, about 6 minutes.
• Transfer whitefish to plates. Drizzle sauce over and serve.

FISH FILLETS WITH GRAPEFRUIT TARRAGON BEURRE BLANC

Steps:

• Sprinkle the shallot into a buttered shallow baking dish just large enough to hold the fish fillets in one layer, on the shallot arrange the fillets, skin sides down, and pour the wine and the clam juice over them. Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper to taste and bake them, covered with a buttered piece of wax paper, in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are just cooked through. Transfer the fillets with a slotted spatula to a platter and keep them warm, covered.
• Strain the cooking liquid through a fine sieve into a small saucepan, add the grapefruit juice, and boil the mixture until it is reduced to about 2/3 cup. Add the cream and boil the mixture until it is reduced by half. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the butter, 1 bit at a time, lifting the pan from the heat occasionally to let the mixture cool and adding each new bit of butter before the previous one has melted completely. (The sauce should not get hot enough to liquefy. It should be the consistency of thin hollandaise.) Whisk in the tarragon and salt and pepper to taste. With the slotted spatula transfer each fillet, skin side down, to a plate. Pour one fourth of the sauce over each fillet and arrange some of the grapefruit sections around each plate.
