Baked Fish And Scallop Delight Recipes

BAKED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Pour melted butter into a 2 quart oval casserole dish. Distribute butter and scallops evenly inside the dish.
• Combine the bread crumbs, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, parsley, minced garlic and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this mixture over the scallops.
• Bake in pre-heated oven until scallops are firm, about 20 minutes.

BAKED FISH AND SCALLOP DELIGHT.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a baking pan, pour in the wine. Lay the fresh haddock or scrod on top of the wine and spoon some of the wine over the fish just to coat lightly. Sprinkle to taste with fresh ground pepper. Place the bay scallops on top of and around the fish. Sprinkle with the fresh dill weed. Finally, evenly pour the cracker crumbs over the top of the fish. Dot the top with butter slices. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the fish is cooked at its thickest point. Serve with lemon slices and your favorite rice dish such as a pilaf or the like.

BAKED HADDOCK (OR SCALLOPS/COD)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• Wash and dry fish fillets, then season with salt.
• Meanwhile, mix breadcrumbs, melted butter, juice of a lemon, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• You will need to spray some cooking spray on the breadcrumbs to make sure they are moist enough. The breadcrumbs should be forming into moist crumbs.
• Place fish in shallow baking pan.
• Pour the white wine around the fish, making sure it does not actually cover the fish.
• Place the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the fish.
• Put the fish(for haddock or cod) in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, until almost done.
• You then may want to broil the fish for a minute or two just to crisp up the topping.

COD DELIGHT

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Place cod in an 11x7-in. baking dish; top with tomato mixture. Sprinkle with seafood seasoning. Microwave, covered, on high 5-6 minutes or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork.

SEAFOOD TRIO W/SHRIMP, SCALLOPS AND CRAB

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat olive oil in heavy-bottomed sauce pan over medium-low heat.
• Add scallion and a good pinch of salt. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Do not allow to brown.
• Add flour and stir until all oil is absorbed, forming a heavy paste.
• Cook paste (this is a white roux with scallions in it at this stage) for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid browning.
• Add 1/2 of the clam juice, stirring well to incorporate and avoid lumping.
• Add 1/2 of the clam juice, repeating the process.
• Stir in the wine.
• Stir in the cream.
• Add cayenne and white pepper.
• Bring sauce to a very low simmer. Taste sauce and adjust salt to taste. (I usually add about 1/2 tsp, but salt varies so sneak up on it rather than use more than you like.).
• Test the thickness by dipping a spoon into the sauce and letting it run off. It should be just thick enough to coat and cling to the back of the spoon -- this is called "nappe" (pronounced "na-pay" by my culinary instructor but my college French professor would have said "nap",) in classical cooking. If it is too thick, add a bit more clam juice or cream until you get the desired thickness, and reheat to a very low simmer.
• Add parsley and stir to incorporate.
• Preheat 2 oval ramekins (we use about a 4"x6" size, but any oval large enough to contain 12 oz of seafood will work) by running them under hot water.
• Place 1/2 of shrimp in one end of each ramekin. Place 1/2 of crab in opposite end of each ramekin. Place 1/2 of scallops in the center of each ramekin. (Yes, you want the seafood separated into neat little sections. It works. Trust me.).
• Pour 1/2 of the sauce evenly over the contents of each ramekin. Don't worry if the sauce wants to stick on the top -- it will run down into the seafood as the "casserole" bakes.
• If desired, you can put a thin layer of panko to the top of each ramekin. (This is not how the original was done, but my sister likes a bit of contrast in her textures so I do this when I'm cooking for her as well, and it certainly doesn't hurt anything.).
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until the top begins to show signs of browning. If there is no sign of browning after 20 minutes, raise the shelf and turn your oven to broil. Broil for no more than 5 minutes! This depends on your oven, and if you cook the seafood too long, you will get rubbery seafood.
• Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
