Broiled Cod

Wife loved this I thought it was good but not as much as she did.(I just liked it fried better I think). The recipe came from all recipes and they claim it taste like lobster. As it has been a really long time since I had lobster I could not tell you if this is true or not but all in all this was lip smacking good.
2 6oz cod fillets (we used frozen)
2 cups water
1/3 cup white sugar
2 tablespoon salt
1/2 cup butter melted
dash of paprika
Preheat boiler and lightly grease cookie sheet
Place fish in large saucepan, mix together the water,sugar,and salt and pour over fish.
The mixture should cover the fish. if not add more water. Bring o a boil for about 3-5 minutes.
Remove fish from water and blot on paper towels o remove excess water.
Brush with 6 Tablespoons of melted butter and sprinkle with paprika
Broil 8 to 10 minutes per inch of thickness or until they are golden brown, serve with remaining butter.

Fried Red Snapper and shrimp

When I was on the coast a while back I got three different fish that we have not cooked and this is the second one. A red snapper and this time I decided to just fry it with some Zaterains fish fry.

This was out of this world. The fish had a nice flavor and did well as fried. Add some cold slaw and home made french fries. Oh and why I was add it I did a few onion rings this way also. Yum Yum much better than Pen's.

1 egg with 1/2 cup to cup of milk to make a wash

Zaterains fish fry

take the fish and dip in egg wash and then using a paper bag or baggie with the Zaterains about a cup or how much as needed and shake till coated.

Caribbean Jerk Fish

When I was on the coast a while back I got the chance to get some shrimp and a few pieces of fish that we have never tried and one of them was some grouper. I'm not sure about this fish I found it to be a little strong or maybe it was the recipe but it didn't appeal that much to me now wife thought it was pretty good but then she eats most anything. Does any one out there know about this fish or have a good recipe for it? Oh we did add some shrimp and it was good with the marinade may taste better grilled. This is a recipe from Zaar by breezermom.

1 cup olive oil

1 Tablespoon garlic chopped

1/2 cup orange juice

1 1/2 cups soy sauce

Place fish in marinade and cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.

Tuna with white beans and touch of orange

We are trying a new one here with the little tuna steaks we have and they sure have been good but I think I will have to go with salmon being my favorite. We really need to try this again with a better orange than we had and we did not have any fresh basil but its growing now outside.

4 tuna steaks 4-6 oz about 1 inch thick (ours was a little smaller)

2 Tablespoons grated orange zest

1/2 cup orange juice

2 Tablespoons packed brown sugar

1 Tablespoons minced garlic

1 teaspoon ground mustard

1 Tablespoon ground cumin

2 teaspoons finely minced fresh Basil leaves

1 Tablespoon sea salt

2 teaspoons ground pepper

2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 Tablespoon white wine vinegar

2 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (to drizzle after cooked)

4 cups cooked white beans

1/4 cup shredded fresh basil

In a small bowl combine orange zest,brown sugar,garlic,mustard,cumin,basil,salt,pepper. Reserve 1 Tablespoon to season white beans. Rub on tuna coating well

In a saute pan or cast iron skillet warm the olive oil. When hot add tuna in pan to sear for 1 minute, then turn over and reduce heat from high to med. Sear this side for 1 ore minute until med rare.

In large saucepan whisk the orange juice,vinegar and reserved spices. Bring to simmer and add white beans and 1/4 cup of basil leaves, tossing till hot.

Place beans on plate and drizzle with olive oil and place tuna steak over beans.

Lime baked fish

This was a Zaar recipe and turned out pretty good. A little lighter fare from all the heavy winter comfort foods we have been having. Maybe because it was warm today and we have had the door and windows open and the Bradford pear across the street has bloomed overnight.

3 Tablespoons butter

2 Tablespoons lime juice

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon

1/2 teaspoon chives

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1 lime wedged

Place butter in baking pan melt in oven and coat pan

Place fish in pan and drizzle lime juice over fish

Combine remaining ingredients and sprinkle over fish

Cover with foil and bake at 359 for 10 to 15 minutes

Garnish with lime wedge.
