BROILED FISH

Steps:

• Place fish on a broiler rack that has been coated with cooking spray. Drizzle 3 tablespoons butter over fillets; dust with flour and sprinkle with paprika. , Broil 5-6 in. from the heat for 5 minutes or until fish just begins to brown. Combine lemon juice, parsley, Worcestershire sauce and remaining butter; pour over fish. Broil 5 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

FISH MATECUMBE

Steps:

• Add the olive oil, capers, basil, shallots, tomatoes, lemon juice, onions, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper to a medium bowl and stir to thoroughly combine. Refrigerate until ready to use, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Position an oven rack at least 4 inches but no more than 6 inches from the broiler and preheat the broiler.
• Place the fish fillets on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Place under the broiler and cook until done on one side; watch carefully, as it may only take a couple minutes depending on the thickness of your fillets and the proximity to the broiler. Remove from the broiler and turn each fillet over. Top each fillet with about 1/2 cup of the sauce. Return to the broiler and cook until the fish is done on the other side and fully cooked through in the middle. If you are unsure about doneness, cut into the center of the fillets; the fish should be opaque (you can cover up the cut with the sauce).

BROILED FISH MATECUMBE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, capers, olive oil, basil, lemon juice, shallots, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, stirring gently. Cover and refrigerate to allow flavors to meld, preferably at least an hour or up to 1 day.
• When ready to finish the recipe, position oven rack about 5 inches from broiler, and preheat broiler.
• Meanwhile, place fish fillets on a rimmed baking sheet. Season both sides of the fish evenly with the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/16 teaspoon pepper.
• Broil fish on first side for about 4 minutes. (I prefer to put the side that used to have the skin upwards for this first broiling step, just so you finish the recipe with the more attractive side up and the skin-side down.)
• Remove the fish from the oven, flip the fish over, and top the fish evenly with the tomato topping mixture.
• Continue broiling until the fish is done (about 8 minutes depending on your broiler and the exact thickness of your fish.) The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork in the thickest part of the fillet.
• Serve immediately, with lemon wedges, if desired.

BROILED GREEK FISH FILLETS

BROILED FISH TACOS

Steps:

• Finely zest the limes into a medium bowl. Remove the peel and pith from each lime. Discard the peel and pith, and cut the flesh into rounds. Chop into small pieces and add to the bowl. Set aside, along with 1 tablespoon vegetable or grapeseed oil and the chopped herbs. (You'll add them right before serving.)
• Move the broiler rack to less than 6 inches from the flame or coil, and heat broiler to high. Place the fish fillets in a flat, ovenproof dish. Combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil, salt, paprika and coriander in a small bowl. Drizzle all over the fish, rubbing to make sure all surfaces are coated. Broil until fish is crispy golden brown around the edges and just cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes (do not overcook).
• Meanwhile, lay out the tortillas in an even layer (overlapping slightly) on a baking sheet. Remove from the fish from the oven, and immediately toast the tortillas under the broiler until golden around the edges, about 2 minutes. Flip and toast 30 seconds to 1 minute more. (These are warm and pliable right out the oven, but crisp up as they cool. Wrap in a clean kitchen towel to keep soft.)
• Toss together the lime zest, lime flesh, herbs and oil and season with salt. Break each fish fillet in half with a fork or spoon to make 8 portions, and fill each tortilla with fish and herb salad. Drizzle or serve with crema.
