SESAME-CRUSTED FISH WITH BUTTER AND GINGER SAUCE



Sesame-Crusted Fish With Butter and Ginger Sauce image

This recipe came out of a 2005 kitchen cage match between Mark Bittman and the chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, in which Bittman, the home cook, sought to cook Chef Vongerichten's food more simply and perhaps just as deliciously. Judging by the quality of this particular dish, he succeeded.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sesame seeds
4 skinless fillets like black sea bass or red snapper, 6 ounces each
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons neutral oil, like corn or canola
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Put seeds on plate. Season fillets with salt and pepper and turn in seeds, patting to coat fillets as fully as possible with seeds. Add oil to skillet and when it shimmers add fillets.
  • Brown fish on 1 side for a couple of minutes, then brown on other side for a minute or two. Remove skillet from heat, transfer fish to plate (even if not done) and place plate in oven.
  • When skillet has cooled slightly, put over medium heat. Add butter, and when it melts add ginger. About 30 seconds later, add soy sauce and 1/4 cup water and stir to blend. Return fillets to skillet, along with accumulated juices.
  • Turn heat to medium and cook fillets for about 1 to 3 minutes until desired doneness, turning 3 or 4 times. (If the pan dries out, add 2 or 3 tablespoons water.) Fish should be done when a thin-bladed knife meets little resistance at fillet's thickest point. Serve pan juices over fish.

SESAME-SEED FISH FILLETS



Sesame-Seed Fish Fillets image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 skinless, boneless fish fillets, (weakfish, red snapper, blackfish or any other nonoily fish)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon milk
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3/4 cup sesame seeds
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup flour
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
Lemon wedges for garnish

Steps:

  • Put the fish fillets in a dish and add the lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Turn the fillets in the mixture and let stand until ready to cook.
  • Put the beaten egg, milk, salt and pepper in a flat dish and stir to blend. Put the sesame seeds and cheese in a separate dish and blend.
  • Put the flour in a third dish.
  • Lift the fillets one at a time and, using the fingers, wipe off much, but not all, of the marinating liquid. Dip the fillets one at a time in flour to coat well. Dip the pieces into the egg mixture to coat on both sides. Dip in the sesame seed mixture to coat well.
  • Heat the oil and butter in a skillet and add the fish fillets (it may be necessary to cook the fish in two steps if the skillet is not large enough, but the amount of oil and butter indicated should be sufficient). Cook two minutes and turn carefully with a pancake turner or spatula. Cook about two minutes on the second side.
  • If all the fillets have not been cooked, add a second batch to the skillet and continue cooking in the same manner. Transfer the fillets to a warm platter. Pour the pan fat over all. Garnish with lemon wedges.

Categories     High Protein

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vegetable oil (I have used 3/4 tsp veg oil and 1/4 tsp sesame oil as well)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
16 ounces fish fillets, preferably a nice firm white fish, such as red snapper, grouper, cod, tilapia (cut into 4 serving size pieces)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Place the orange juice, brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, lemon juice, oil, and black pepper in a small bowl; stir well to combine.
  • Arrange the fish in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour the orange juice mixture over the fillets. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, turning once.
  • Remove the fillets from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Set half of the marinade aside.
  • Place fillets on a lightly greased rack in a shallow roasting pan. Broil fillets 6 inches from heat for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, basting occasionally with the marinade.
  • Transfer fish to a serving platter. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds (I toast mine in a skillet while the fish is in the oven) over the fillets, and serve with the reserved marinade.
