Fish In Hazelnut Crust With Red Pepper Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Make the red-pepper relish: Combine red peppers, onion, garlic, ginger and habanero pepper in a food processor. Pulse into a coarsely chopped purée. (You can also finely mince the ingredients with a sharp knife.)
• In a shallow medium sauté pan, heat 1/4 cup oil over medium heat. Add the turmeric, and toast until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the relish and crushed tomato, and bring up to a simmer. Allow the relish to simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened to a paste and turns a shade darker in color, about 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt to taste.
• Prepare the fish: Set the oven to broil. Using a sharp knife, score the skin side of the fillets by making 2 parallel cuts across the width. Be careful not to cut all the way through the flesh. Place the fillets on a large rimmed baking sheet, and season both sides with salt. Using a spoon or gloved hands, spread 1 cup of the relish generously over both sides of each fillet, working the marinade into the cuts.
• Scatter the chard around the edges of the fillets on the pan, tucking a few pieces under the fish. (You want a nice char on the fish, so don't cover the fillets with chard pieces.) Drizzle the fillets and chard with oil, and season with more salt. Broil until fish is charred in spots, cooked through and the chard is starting to wilt and brown, about 6 to 8 minutes.
• As the fish cooks, make a quick dressing: Combine the remaining relish, lime zest, juice and 1/4 cup oil. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and scatter the torn cilantro over the fish and chard. Spoon the dressing over everything. Serve fish with any leftover dressing on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Season each fillet to taste with salt and pepper. Combine the potato and horseradish and spread the mixture over the top of each fillet, pressing it down so it will adhere.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until almost smoking. Sear each fillet potato-side down until a crust forms, about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets over and finish cooking in the oven until done, about 5 minutes for medium. Place on a large serving platter and top each fillet with some relish. Serve any remaining relish on the side.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the bell peppers, olives, pepper flakes, garlic, thyme, parsley, vinegar, honey, and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. May be refrigerated up to 1 day. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place the nuts in a dry skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring, for about 15 minutes, until they are toasted. Do not allow them to burn.
• Wrap the hot, toasted nuts in a clean cloth and rub them in the cloth to remove the skins. Chop them fairly fine in a food processor or by hand. Mix the chopped nuts with the bread crumbs, coriander and cumin and spread this mixture on a plate.
• Place the eggs in a bowl.
• Combine flour, pepper and salt and spread on another plate.
• Dip the pieces of fish first in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess, then dip in the eggs, allowing the excess to run off. Press the fish into the crumbs. Place the fish, as it is coated, on a plate and refrigerate until ready to cook, up to one-half hour.
• To cook, heat the butter in a large, nonstick skillet. Place the coated fish in the skillet and cook over medium-high heat until the pieces are lightly browned, turning them once until they are browned on both sides, two to three minutes on each side. If all the pieces do not fit in the pan, remove those that are cooked to a warm plate and repeat with the rest. It should not be necessary to add additional butter or oil.
• Serve at once with red pepper relish on the side.

Steps:

• Mix miso and 2 tablespoons red wine and spread on top, not skin side, of fish. Set aside. Heat butter on medium-high in an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold the fish in a single layer. When the butter no longer foams, add the hazelnuts and cook a few minutes, until the nuts are toasty and lightly browned. Remove from the heat.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Transfer the contents of the skillet to a bowl. Place the fish, skin side down, in the skillet and spoon the hazelnuts and butter on top. Place in the oven 12 to 15 minutes, until the fish is just cooked through and is starting to flake. Transfer fish to a serving platter.
• Place skillet on the stove and add the remaining half cup of wine. Stir in the honey. Cook on medium-high until wine has reduced and become syrupy. Season to taste and pour over and around the fish.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. While the potatoes are boiling, mash the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon of salt into a smooth paste. Drain potatoes, then mash together with the garlic paste, butter, and pepper. Keep warm.
• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• While the potatoes are cooking, Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Pulse the hazelnuts and bread crumbs in a food processor until finely ground, but not ground into a paste. Pour onto a shallow dish. Season the halibut fillets on both sides with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently press one side of the halibut fillets into the nut mixture, and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Place the halibut fillets nut-side-up into the skillet; cook until the halibut begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the fillets over, and place into the preheated oven. Bake, nut-side-down until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it turns nut brown. Stir in the vegetable broth, and bring to a simmer.
• To serve, mound the potatoes onto the center of each dinner plate. Place a halibut fillet on top of the mashed potatoes nut-side-up, then drizzle with the browned butter sauce.

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, pecans or pistachios, salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow bowl and the milk in another bowl. Cut fish fillets into serving-size pieces if necessary. Dredge fish in flour, dip in milk, then coat with the crumb mixture., Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Fry the fish for 4-5 minutes on each side or until it flakes easily with a fork.
