ARCTIC CHAR WITH SPINACH BUTTER



Arctic Char with Spinach Butter image

Darina Allen, known as the Julia Child of Ireland, has run the Ballymaloe Cooking School on an organic farm in east Cork for more than 30 years. Here's a lovely dish from her repertoire, a whole fish wrapped in a foil package, seasoned with nothing more than salt, pepper, butter and a sprig of tarragon. The fish emerges moist and juicy, ready for a creamy butter sauce packed with chopped spinach and herbs. Ms. Allen makes it with pink trout, which are plentiful in Ireland, but this recipe calls for Arctic char, which is more widely available in the United States. But you could substitute pink trout (also called coho trout) if you can find it, or large wild trout, or even thick fillets of steelhead trout or salmon.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 ounces baby spinach
1 Arctic char, about 2 pounds, cleaned and left whole
Salt and pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon, plus a few sprigs for inside the fish
2 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature, plus 6 chilled tablespoons for sauce
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon finely sliced chives
1 pound boiled new potatoes, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Put spinach in a mixing bowl and pour boiling water over to wilt it. Drain in a colander, rinse with cool water and squeeze completely dry. Chop the spinach as finely as you can and set aside.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Rinse fish and pat dry. Season fish inside and out with salt and pepper. Put a few tarragon springs in the belly cavity.
  • Line a roasting pan with a big piece of foil slightly longer than the fish, leaving ends hanging over. Smear middle section of foil lengthwise with 1 tablespoon soft butter and set fish on top. Smear top of fish with remaining tablespoon soft butter. Fold the sides of foil to the center and press against fish. Twist both ends of foil to make a tight package. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove pan from oven and let fish rest 5 to 10 minutes, still in the foil package, while you make the sauce.
  • Put crème fraîche in a wide saucepan or skillet over medium high heat and bring to a simmer. Cook for a minute or so, until slightly reduced. Add cooked spinach, stirring to coat. Season with salt and pepper and turn heat to low. Quickly stir in 1 tablespoon chilled butter at a time. Each spoonful should be just melted before adding the next, to make a creamy sauce. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon zest, tarragon and chives.
  • Transfer fish to a warm serving platter. Carefully remove foil. (Fish should be cooked through but moist.) Peel away and discard skin from top of fish. Pour any collected pan juices into the sauce, then spoon sauce over fish. Serve with boiled new potatoes if desired.

Yield Makes 8 (side dish) servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 pound green Swiss chard (about 2 large bunches)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium onions, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Cut stems and center ribs from chard, discarding any tough portions, then cut stems and ribs crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Stack chard leaves and roll up lengthwise into cylinders. Cut cylinders crosswise to make 1-inch-wide strips.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large heavy pot over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook onions and garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, covered, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to soften, about 8 minutes. Add chard stems and ribs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until stems are just tender, about 10 minutes. Add chard leaves in batches, stirring until wilted before adding next batch, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a serving bowl.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh Arctic char: Look for fish that has bright, clear eyes, firm flesh, and a mild, fresh smell.
  • Cook the Arctic char gently: This fish is delicate, so it's important to cook it gently over medium-low heat. Overcooking will make the fish tough and dry.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: Marinating the Arctic char before cooking will help to infuse it with flavor. Try using a marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices.
  • Pair the Arctic char with a variety of sides: This fish is versatile and can be paired with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
  • Enjoy the Arctic char immediately: This fish is best enjoyed immediately after cooking. However, it can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Arctic char is a delicious and versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you're grilling, baking, or pan-frying, there's a recipe out there that's perfect for you. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful meal, give Arctic char a try. You won't be disappointed!
