HADDOCK MARGARITA WITH PAN ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• For the fish: Dredge the fish on both sides in the flour. Then, beat the eggs in a bowl using a fork or whisk. Take a saute pan and coat the bottom of the pan with the olive oil, so it is fully covered. Then turn the heat on medium, being careful to not let the oil burn. Splash in a speck of the egg batter to see if the oil is hot enough; the egg will puff up when the oil is ready. At this point, dip the dredged fish into the beaten egg, making sure to cover both sides well, and then place in the saute pan with the hot oil. Let the fish cook on each side until golden brown; be careful not to burn fish in the hot oil. Also, please note that the fish is very tender and breaks easily, so use caution when flipping the fish with a metal spatula or tongs.
• For the margarita sauce: In another saute pan, add half of the butter, the chicken stock, the wine, pinch of salt and pepper, and squeeze in three-quarters of the fresh lemon. Make sure to save a few lemon wheels for garnish and set aside. Simmer the sauce for several minutes on medium heat, and then add the cooked fish to the sauce and let that simmer on low heat for a couple of minutes more. This is to infuse the sauce flavor with the egg-battered fish.
• For the potatoes: Take the potatoes and cut into cubes. Par-cook them by boiling them in a small pot of water until they begin to soften, but still retain some firmness. In another saute pan over medium-low heat, coat the bottom of the pan with the olive oil and add the butter. Once the butter and olive oil have joined together, add the potatoes to the mixture and turn the heat to medium-high. Next, add the paprika, salt and pepper to taste. Stir the potatoes so that they are all coated evenly with the mixture. Taste one of the potatoes to know when they are finished cooking (they should be slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside). Place the cooked potatoes in a bowl and strain any excess oil from the potatoes. Garnish the potatoes with the parsley and finish with a pinch of table salt.
• Plate the fish from the margarita sauce, then pour just a bit of the sauce over the fish to highlight the bottom of the plate surrounding the fish. Pour the remaining sauce into a small cup for dipping the fish and/or potatoes. Garnish the top of the fish pieces with 2 thinly sliced lemon wheels and a parsley sprig.

HADDOCK WITH PARSLEY GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200C, fan 180°C Line a baking sheet or griddle pan with foil. Make the gremolata by combining the parsley leaves, olives, capers, garlic, and lemon zest.
• Put the fish fillets, skin-side down, on the foil and sprinkle a few teaspoons of the gremolata over each. Drizzle with the oil, season with black pepper, then roast for 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes when parted with a fork.
• Meanwhile, steam the broccoli for 2 minutes, then add the asparagus. After 1 1/2 minutes, add the courgette; continue steaming everything for 1 1/2 minutes, until al dente.
• Mix the remaining gremolata with the mayonnaise to make a tartare sauce. Serve the fish with the steamed veg, tartare sauce, and a lemon wedge.

ROASTED TROUT WITH HAZELNUT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• For the gremolata: In a small bowl, combine the parsley, hazelnuts, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest and the salt. Mix well to combine.
• In a medium bowl, toss together the mushrooms, squash, 1 tablespoon of the oil, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Spread the mixture on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 12 minutes or until the squash is tender and beginning to brown. Remove the vegetables from the oven and preheat the broiler to high.
• Using a sharp knife, make 3 diagonal slashes on the skin side of each trout fillet. Season the fillets evenly with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and rub each one with 1/2 teaspoon of the oil.
• Place the fillets, skin side up, on top of the roasted vegetables. Broil for 8 to 9 minutes or until the skin is lightly browned and crisp and the flesh is cooked through but still moist.
• Place some of the vegetables on each serving plate and top with the fish. Serve topped with the gremolata.
