Sablefish En Papillote With Shiitake Mushrooms And Orange Recipes

Steps:

• Cut fish in 4 equal portions, season with salt and pepper and brush with 2 tablespoons sesame oil. Set aside. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
• Place a wok or large skillet on medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add garlic, ginger, onion and celery and stir-fry until the vegetables soften. Add mushrooms, lower heat to medium and continue to cook about 5 minutes, until mushrooms soften. Stir in the edamame and 5-spice powder. Add soy sauce, vinegar and beer and bring to a simmer. Stir in miso and let it dissolve. Remove from heat. Add salt and pepper if needed.
• Place a heavy ovenproof skillet, preferably cast iron, over high heat. While pan heats, dust the skin of the fish with flour. Add remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Place fish, skin side down, in pan and sear about 5 minutes, until skin browns.
• Turn fish over, place in oven and roast 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until just cooked through. An instant-read thermometer should register about 140 degrees. Remove from oven.
• Reheat mushroom ragout. Add scallions, cilantro and remaining tablespoon of sesame oil. Spoon mixture onto a platter or four dinner plates. Top with the fish, skin side up, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Use a vegetable peeler to remove 8 strips of orange zest, leaving bitter white pith behind. Halve the orange and extract the juice. Cut out four 15-inch squares of parchment paper; fold each in half to make a crease, then open again. Place a fillet on one half of each parchment. Season all fish on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt, dividing evenly, and pepper; sprinkle with ginger, and drizzle with oil and juice. Arrange 2 zest strips, 6 shiitake pieces, and 6 cilantro sprigs on top of each fillet.
• Fold parchment over fish, and crimp the edges to form a half-moon shape, pleating repeatedly all the way around to seal. Place packets on a baking sheet and cook until paper puffs up, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven; place packets on plates, and serve immediately, cutting them open at the table.

Steps:

• HEALTH BENEFITS
• Like most fish, sablefish is a great source of protein, B vitamins (especially niacin and B12), and minerals (notably selenium). It shines brightest, however, in fat content: A 5-ounce serving provides about 3 grams of heart-healthy omega-3s, namely the powerful pair of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Harvested from relatively pure waters, sablefish also has very low levels of mercury, PCBs, and dioxins compared with many other fish.
• HOW TO BUY
• Choose Alaskan or Canadian sablefish, if possible, which tend to be more sustainably harvested than sablefish from West Coast fisheries. Look for fillets or steaks with firm, moist flesh and little to no fishy smell. Sablefish freezes well, and smoked sablefish has excellent flavor; you can buy both kinds at specialty fish shops and online.
• HOW TO STORE
• Eat fresh sablefish the same day you buy it; the high oil content makes this fish especially prone to spoilage. Frozen fish should be thawed in the refrigerator, not only for safety but because thawing too quickly can compromise texture.
• PREPARATION TIP
• To grill, rub fillet all over with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until fish flakes with a fork and is opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• DID YOU KNOW?
• Sablefish swim at depths as great as 9,800 feet and are among the longest-living species of fish; the oldest documented one was 94 years old.
