Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound leeks, white and light green parts (about 4 large leeks)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup apple cider
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon brandy or Calvados
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 whole book-boned arctic char (about 4 pounds),* head and tail removed, if desired
Olive oil, for brushing
1 cup sour cream
1/3 cup prepared horseradish, drained
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • 1. To prepare the fish: Halve the leeks lengthwise, then slice crosswise and transfer to a large bowl of water. Swish leeks to release any grit; lift from the water. Drain.
  • 2. Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add leeks and thyme, and cook, stirring, until wilted and liquid reduces, 6 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste. Add cider, bring to a boil, and cook until almost dry, 4 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, boil until thick and it coats the leeks. Add brandy, cook down slightly. Remove from heat and stir in parsley.
  • 3. Open fish and season well with salt and pepper. Spread leek mixture along flesh and close fish. Tie closed with kitchen twine (or cooked leek greens) at 4-inch intervals. Brush oil all over skin, season with salt and pepper.
  • 4. Preheat the broiler to high (with convection broiler if you have it). Line a pan with foil and lightly brush with oil. Place the prepared pan in broiler and heat for 5-10 minutes.
  • Carefully lay the fish on the preheated pan. Broil fish until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 130 to 135 degrees F, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and rest fish for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
  • 5. Stir all sauce ingredients together. Transfer fish to a serving platter, remove strings. Serve with sauce on the side.

GRILLED ARCTIC CHAR WITH HORSERADISH CREMA



Grilled Arctic Char With Horseradish Crema image

This recipe, from the chef Nick Anderer of Marta in Manhattan, pairs simply seasoned arctic char fillets (feel free to use salmon instead) with a bright, delicious crema with lemon and spicy horseradish. Make sure your grill grates are both clean and very hot before you put down the fish; that will help keep your fish from sticking. You'll also want a large grill spatula for flipping (not tongs) to get under the fish and help you carefully flip the fillets and keep them intact.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ounces fresh horseradish, peeled and coarsely grated (about 2/3 cup)
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
2 to 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus wedges for garnish
Salt
4 (6-ounce) arctic char fillets (or use salmon)
Olive oil

Steps:

  • Make the horseradish crema: Peel horseradish with a vegetable peeler and coarsely grate. Combine grated horseradish with sour cream, Dijon, chives and dill in a medium bowl and mix well. Season crema with lemon juice and salt to taste. (Crema can be made in advance; chill until you are ready to serve.)
  • Heat grill to medium-high heat if you are using gas; if you have a charcoal grill, you want a nice hot bed of coals.
  • Coat fish well with olive oil and season with salt. Set fish on the grill skin side down and cook, covered, until the flesh of the fish begins to turn opaque and the skin is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a grill spatula to carefully flip the fish and finish cooking to medium, about 2 minutes more.
  • Spread horseradish crema on a serving platter or individual plates and place cooked fish on top with the skin side up. Garnish with dill and lemon wedges. Serve extra crema on the side.
