This recipe is adapted from a cookbook entitled Best Recipes of Michigan Inns and Restaurants by Margaret E. Guthrie. This is a menu item served at Arie's Cafe in Plainwell, Michigan. If you ever find yourself in Southwest Michigan, do yourself a favor and have a meal at Arie's Cafe. It's worth going out of your way to find. My sister had her wedding rehearsal dinner there and it holds special memories for me. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as I do . . .

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (6 -8 ounce) white fish fillets
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 ounce clarified butter
1/2 cup diced lemon
1/4 cup diced fresh tomato (avoid using canned)
1/4 cup capers
1 ounce fresh butter

Steps:

  • Mix the salt, pepper, and garlic with the flour in a plate or pie plate. Pour milk into a separate pie plate and dip the fillets in milk, then dredge in the seasoned flour.
  • Heat saute pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1 ounce clarified butter. Place fillets in pan, skin side down (**I always use skinless fish). Cook until golden brown, turn over and cook until done.
  • Remove fillets onto a plate. While pan is still hot, wipe the pan out with a clean damp rag or paper towels. Place back on the stove. Add fresh butter; when it starts to brown add the Grenoble sauce and saute until heated, approximately 1-2 minutes. Pour the warmed Grenoble sauce over the fillets** and serve.
  • **After reading the first review of this recipe I wanted to add a final note. The cookbook says to serve only 1 tablespoon of the Grenoble sauce over each fillet. That may help in making the dish more balanced, as opposed to using all of the sauce.

SIMPLE WHITEFISH WITH LEMON AND HERBS



Simple Whitefish With Lemon and Herbs image

I can't believe something this simple can taste this good. This was actually my very first time making fish, and it turned out absolutely fabulous! This is another recipe from my favorite cookbook, Eating for IBS by Heather Van Vorous. I actually didn't have any rosemary, so I made it with basil and oregano. Try it with your favorite fresh or dried herbs!

Time 23m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 white fish fillets, about 1 1/2 lbs total (cod, halibut, etc.--I used haddock)
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried rosemary or 4 teaspoons fresh rosemary leaves, crushed
1/4 teaspoon white pepper or 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large lemon, thinly sliced,seeded,end pieces discarded

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 F and place a heavy baking sheet in oven to preheat as well.
  • Cut 4 large rectangles of foil or parchment paper and place a fish fillet in the center of each piece.
  • Combine remaining ingredients except lemon slices in a small bowl and stir well.
  • Spread mixture evenly over fish, scatter lemon slices on top, and fold the edges of the foil or paper up over each fillet, crimping edges tightly.
  • Place packaged fish on preheated baking sheet and bake 13-15 minutes, until fish is just cooked through.
  • Serve fish in packages.

Tips:

- Use fresh, firm whitefish fillets for the best results. - Season the fish fillets liberally with salt and pepper before cooking. - For a crispy crust, sear the fish fillets in a hot skillet until golden brown on both sides. - Be careful not to overcook the fish, as it will become dry and tough. - Serve the fish immediately with the sauce and parsley, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
