GRILLED FISH WITH SALSA VERDE



Grilled Fish With Salsa Verde image

This parsley sauce, made with capers and garlic, is a perfect complement to mild-tasting cod. You could use other fish, or try the sauce on grilled meat, chicken or vegetables. No grill? Broil the fish instead: Put it on a sheet pan, position the oven rack about 4 inches or so below the broiler and heat it to high. Cook the fish for just a few minutes; there's no need to flip it, and it will cook fast.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 to 2 garlic cloves (to taste), halved, green shoots removed
Salt to taste
1 anchovy fillet, rinsed (optional)
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 cup (tightly packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves (25 grams)
2 pounds cod
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • To make the salsa verde, combine the garlic, anchovy fillet, salt and capers in a mini food processor and pulse to a paste. (Alternatively, use an immersion blender and combine the ingredients in a jar and blend to a paste.) Add the olive oil and parsley and blend to a purée. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If using within a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature. Otherwise, refrigerate. Allow to come to room temperature before using.
  • Prepare a hot grill. When the grill is ready, season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides and brush generously on both sides with olive oil. Grill for about 3 minutes on each side, just until you can pull the flesh apart with a fork. Remove from the heat and serve with the salsa verde.

Grilled Fish With Sauce Vierge image

Number Of Ingredients 12

FOR THE FISH:
4 fish, small, whole (each about 1 pound), cleaned and trimmed of fins, heads and tails left on
2 tablespoons olive oil, extra-virgin
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
FOR THE SAUCE VIERGE:
2 tomatoes, large, fresh, ripe, peeled and seeded then diced

20 basil leaves, fresh, thinly slivered
1/2 cup olive oil, extra-virgin
2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh, or more to taste
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the grill to medium-high.2. Place the fish in a nonreactive baking dish. Brush all sides with some of the oil and season with salt and pepper, then set aside to marinate while you prepare the sauce.3. Combine the tomatoes, garlic, basil leaves, oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, vinegar, and salt and pepper in a nonreactive bowl and toss gently to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding salt, pepper, and lemon juice as necessary the sauce should be highly seasoned.4. When ready to cook, brush each fish lightly on both sides with more oil and sprinkle with more salt and pepper. If you're worried about the fish sticking, use hinged fish grilling basket otherwise, oil the grill grate and place the fish directly on it. Grill until the skin on the first side is dark and crisp and the flesh is cooked through to the bone on that side, 6 to 10 minutes. Turn each fish carefully with a long spatula and cook on the second side until the flesh breaks into firm flakes when pressed with a finger, another 6 to 10 minutes.5. Using the spatula, carefully transfer the fish to a serving platter. Fillet the fish (if desired) and serve immediately, topping each serving with a generous spoonful of the sauce.Serves 4
