PESCADO EN SALSA VERDE (FISH FILLETS IN GREEN SAUCE)

From "A Taste of Old Cuba." this recipe originally came from a 1950's Cuban TV cooking show--Cocina al Minuto--and can be made in 30 minutes and it couldn't be easier. You can use any white fleshed fish (snapper, flounder, grouper, etc.) and it's a great meal with rice, salad, and good bread to sop up the sauce. I like to add one little hot red pepper, chopped, but that's up to you--as is the amount of garlic.

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs red snapper fillets (about 6 - 8 fillets)
2/3 cup olive oil
3/4 cup white wine
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 cup parsley, fresh, roughly chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon salt (sea or kosher)
1/2 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground

Steps:

  • Blot the fillets dry--really dry--to avoid a watery sauce.
  • In a blender, combine olive oil, wine, vinegar, parsley, onion, garlic, salt and pepper and blend on high until smooth.
  • In a large skillet, arrange the fish snugly in a single layer and pour the sauce over the fish.
  • If the fish won't fit in one layer, arrange the fish in two layers, pouring half the sauce over the first layer and the rest over the top.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil over high heat.
  • Immediately reduce the heat to low, partially cover the pan and gently simmer the fish for 15 to 20 minutes or until the fish flakes when pierced with a fork.
  • Cooking time depends on the thickness of your fillets; if they are thin, they will be done in less time.

MERLUZA EN SALSA VERDE (HAKE IN A GREEN SAUCE)

Provided by Food Network

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/4 pounds hake fillets, skin on
Salt
1/3 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 cup clam broth or natural clam juice
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Carefully clean, rinse and pat dry the hake. Sprinkle the fillets lightly with salt.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add the garlic and cook until the garlic just begins to color, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over and mix thoroughly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of water, the clam broth or juice, wine, parsley and salt to taste. Decrease the heat to medium and cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thick or just barely coats the back of a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. You can add more cold water to loosen up the sauce if necessary.
  • Add the hake to the pan, skin-side up, in a single layer. Cook the hake fillets in the sauce for 2 minutes, swirling the pan constantly and sliding the pan on and off the fire until the hake fillets give off some of their gelatin and emulsify with the rest of the sauce. Flip the hake fillets once and cook until the fish is opaque but not overcooked, another 2 to 3 minutes on the other side. The sauce should be very light green and slightly thick but still loose and light. Serve immediately.

HAKE WITH CLAMS IN SALSA VERDE



Hake With Clams in Salsa Verde image

This Basque classic from Marti Buckley's cookbook "Basque Country: A Culinary Journey Through a Food Lover's Paradise," requires a bit of quick stove work once the clams start to open. You must be sure there is a nice amount of liquid in the bottom of the pan, enough to swirl around so the flour coating on the fish and the olive oil can thicken and emulsify the sauce. And though it's called salsa verde, it's not a dense herbal purée as in Italian cooking but a fresh, rather sheer parsley-based mixture.

Categories     dinner, seafood, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

20 littleneck or manila clams, the smaller the better
Bones, head and tail from a 1 1/2 to 2-pound fish, preferably hake, or 1 1/2 cups fish stock
4 skin-on hake or halibut fillets, 6 to 7 ounces each
Kosher or fine sea salt
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dry, acidic white wine like txacoli or Sancerre
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Place clams in a bowl, cover with cold water and set aside. If using fish trimmings, rinse them with cold water, place in a 3-quart saucepan, add water to cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer 20 minutes. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve and discard the solids. You should have at least 1 cup fish stock, preferably more. Set aside.
  • Drain clams and scrub them. Rinse fish fillets and pat dry. Season with salt on the skinless side.
  • Heat oil in a large sauté pan or stovetop casserole. Add garlic and cook on medium-high until garlic barely starts to color. Add flour and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add wine, cook 30 seconds and add fish stock. Lower heat and simmer about a minute.
  • Add fish to the pan, skin side up. Simmer gently about 3 minutes. Turn fillets over, add clams, placing them around the fillets. Cook about 5 minutes, or until clams open. If the liquid appears to be drying up, add some additional fish stock or water. When the clams open, scatter parsley around the pan.
  • Remove pan from heat and move it in a circular motion a minute or two to swirl the sauce so it begins to emulsify and look smooth. Add more salt if needed. Serve directly from the pan or divide among individual shallow soup bowls.
