Time 25m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces boneless fish fillet, such as snapper or cod
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon good olive oil
1 large sprig fresh thyme
2 Cerignola or other large green olives with pits
Extra-large egg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

MONKFISH ROASTED WITH HERBS AND OLIVES



Monkfish Roasted With Herbs and Olives image

Firm-fleshed fish can be described as "meaty" - monkfish fits this category - and are often best roasted in a hot oven. Tart lemon slices, aromatic herbs and olives enhance and complement that meatiness, just as they would roast lamb or chicken. A smear of rustic zesty black olive paste is the perfect condiment to complete this simple dish. Use whatever kind of olives appeal to you. At most supermarket self-serve olive bars you can combine 3 or 4 types in one container. I prefer a mixture of green and black whole olives with pits to roast with the fish. For the olive paste, pitted black olives are ideal. But it's fine to use just one type of olive, of course, and go pit-free throughout - it is a forgiving, malleable sort of recipe. To that end, if monkfish is unavailable, consider halibut, swordfish, grouper, sea bass or snapper.

Categories     dinner, seafood, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds monkfish fillet, preferably in 1 or 2 large pieces (or use halibut, swordfish, grouper, sea bass or snapper)
Salt and pepper
Thyme sprigs
Rosemary sprigs
A few fresh bay leaves (optional)
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 small lemon, thinly sliced
12 whole black or green olives, pitted if desired
1/4 cup pitted black olives, such as niçoise, Gaeta or kalamata
1 small garlic clove, peeled and minced

Steps:

  • Tie the monkfish fillets with butcher's twine at 2-inch intervals. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Line the bottom of an earthenware or other low-sided baking dish with thyme and rosemary sprigs. Tuck bay leaves here and there, if using. Lay the fish on top of the herbs and drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Scatter the lemon slices and whole olives over fish. Set aside for 30 minutes to marinate. Heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Meanwhile, make the olive paste: Put pitted black olives, garlic and 1/4 cup olive oil in a small food processor and pulse to a rough paste. (Alternatively, chop olives finely with a knife and stir together with garlic and oil.)
  • Roast fish, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes, until lightly browned on top and firm to the touch. Check with a paring knife to be sure fish is cooked through. Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Snip twine with scissors and remove from fish. Cut fish into 4 portions and spoon some of the roasted lemon slices and whole olives over the top. Dab each piece with a teaspoon of olive paste, or pass olive paste separately.

BAKED FISH AND POTATOES WITH ROSEMARY AND GARLIC



Baked Fish and Potatoes with Rosemary and Garlic image

Pesce Arrosto al Forno con Patate all'Aglio e Rosmarino, Baked Fish and Potatoes with Rosemary and Garlic

Provided by Marcella Hazan

Categories     Fish     Garlic     Herb     Potato     Bake     Rosemary     Healthy

Yield For 4 persons

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound new potatoes, peeled, washed, and cut into wedges
An oven-to-table baking dish that can accommodate both the fish and the potatoes in one layer
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 or 5 fresh rosemary sprigs
4 whole garlic cloves, peeled
Fine sea salt
Black pepper ground fresh from the mill
A 2-pound fillet from a firm-fleshed fish, such as grouper, striped bass, red snapper, or mahi mahi
2 tablespoons fine, dry, unflavored bread crumbs

Steps:

  • 1. Turn on the oven to 400°F.
  • 2. Place the potato wedges in the baking dish, pour 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over them, add 2 sprigs of rosemary, all the garlic cloves, and salt, and pepper. Toss thoroughly. Put the dish in the preheated oven.
  • 3. After 15 minutes, remove the dish to turn the potatoes over, then put it back in the oven. Cook until the potatoes feel tender when tested with a fork, another 10 minutes or so.
  • 4. Remove the dish from the oven. Push the potatoes to the sides, making room in the center for the fish fillet to lie flat.
  • 5. Wash the fish fillet, pat it dry with paper towels, and lay it flat in the dish, skin side down. Strip the leaves from the remaining rosemary sprigs, scatter them over the fish, add salt and pepper, and sprinkle the bread crumbs and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over the fillet. Return the dish to the oven and bake for 14 minutes. Let the dish settle out of the oven for 3 to 4 minutes before bringing it to the table.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: For this recipe, a whole fish weighing 2 to 3 pounds is ideal. Some good options include sea bass, red snapper, and trout.
  • Prepare the fish properly: Before cooking, make sure to clean and gut the fish. You can also remove the head and tail if desired.
  • Season the fish well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices to season the fish inside and out.
  • Use good quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for this recipe. It will add a delicious flavor to the fish and vegetables.
  • Roast the fish at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin and tender flesh.
  • Add the vegetables halfway through cooking: This will ensure that they are cooked through without becoming overcooked.
  • Serve the fish immediately: Once the fish is cooked, serve it immediately with lemon wedges and your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

This whole roasted fish with sliced potatoes, olives, and herbs is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The fish is cooked to perfection and the vegetables are roasted to a tender and flavorful finish. This dish is sure to impress your friends and family.
