Mother's secret in preparing this dish was to butter the fish before dusting it with flour. That seals in the moisture and makes the fish so succulent. -Ann Berg, Chesapeake, Virginia

BROILED FISH WITH LEMON CURRY BUTTER



Broiled Fish With Lemon Curry Butter image

Broiled fish fillets topped with a little butter and a squirt of lemon is a quick, easy weeknight staple. But when the butter is spiked with plenty of garlic, a jolt of curry powder and piquant fresh ginger, then brightened with fresh herbs, it becomes a superb, company-worthy dish that still cooks in under 10 minutes flat. Use your favorite fish here; any mild fillet will allow the buttery sauce to shine.

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Rub the inside with lemon, sprinkle with salt and pepper and arrange on a well greased grill (or use a greased hinged grill). Cook on both sides to brown evenly and baste with melted butter and lemon juice or white wine. Fish cooks quickly. A small whole fish will only take 15 to 20 minutes. Larger ones take a half hour or more. Test with a fork or toothpick. The fish is cooked when the flesh flakes easily.
  • Serve with more melted butter and lemon juice or white wine, or with parsley butter. Fried potatoes and a crisp green salad or cucumber salad are excellent with fish dishes. Serve a fine dry white wine, chilled of course.

BROILED FISH WITH GARLIC OIL AND DRIED CHILE



Broiled Fish with Garlic Oil and Dried Chile image

_Besugo a la Parrilla_ Besugo translates as "red sea bream," which is the type of fish the restaurant uses for this dish; the bream is grilled, then deboned and served whole. Red bream is difficult to find in this country, so we've substituted red snapper, and we've chosen to broil fillets to keep things simple.

Time 15m

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 dried red guindilla chile* or dried guajillo or New Mexican chile*
4 (6-oz) red snapper fillets with skin
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 garlic cloves, very thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Split open chile and discard stem and seeds. Heat a dry small heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot, then toast chile until fragrant, 5 to 10 seconds on each side. Finely chop chile.
  • Line rack of a broiler pan with foil and lightly oil, then set aside. Preheat broiler.
  • Pat fish dry, then brush both sides with 1 tablespoon oil (total) and sprinkle with sea salt. Broil fillets, skin sides up, about 5 inches from heat 9 minutes (skin will be browned and blistered). Turn fish over and broil until flesh is opaque (just cooked through), 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Transfer fish to a platter and sprinkle with vinegar, parsley, and chopped chile.
  • Heat remaining 1/3 cup oil in small heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté garlic, stirring, until golden, about 1 minute. Drizzle oil with garlic over fish and serve immediately.

  • Use a non-stick skillet. It's the best choice to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
  • Season the fish generously. Use a blend of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.
  • Broil the fish until golden brown. Keep an eye on the fish to prevent overcooking.
  • Serve immediately. Broiled fish is best enjoyed hot out of the oven.
