Rachael Rays Pan Roasted Fish With Burst Tomato Sauce Recipes

RACHAEL RAY'S PAN-ROASTED FISH WITH BURST TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 425°F.
• Spread tomatoes onto a cookie sheet and combine with garlic, shallot, 3 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper. The tomatoes will burst after 10 minutes. Continue cooking another 10-12 minutes to concentrate flavor.
• About 10 minutes before you are ready to eat, season fish with salt and pepper and heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. If your fish has skin attached to one side, place skin-side down first. Cook 2 minutes on each side, then transfer to the oven for 5 minutes.
• Remove tomatoes from oven. Mash the tomatoes with a potato masher on the cookie sheet. Top fish with roasted tomato sauce.

CHERRY TOMATO RED CLAM SAUCE WITH LINGUINI

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil for pasta, salt water and cook pasta just shy of al dente.
• While water comes to a boil, heat extra-virgin olive oil over medium to medium-high heat. Add anchovies and melt into oil. Add tomatoes, onions and garlic to the pan, season with crushed red pepper flakes, oregano, parsley and pepper, saute until the tomatoes and onions are soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add wine and reduce for 1 or 2 minutes, melt butter into sauce and add clams to pot. Cover the pot and cook clams until they open, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Remove any unopened clams and add pasta to the pan. Toss linguini with sauce for about 2 to 3 minutes so the pasta absorbs the flavors. Add basil to pasta and taste to adjust seasonings.

ROASTED TOMATO AND ROASTED GARLIC PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Arrange a cooling rack over a parchment or foil-lined baking sheet for easy clean up.
• Cut the ends off the entire head garlic to expose all of the cloves. Season the garlic with a little salt, some black pepper, and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, then wrap in foil.
• Cut the tomatoes in 1/2 and place in a bowl. Lightly dress the tomatoes by drizzling with extra-virgin olive oil. Season the tomatoes with salt, pepper, and marjoram, and arrange on the baking sheet cut-side down. Bake the tomatoes 20 to 25 minutes, then flip the tomatoes, and roast 20 minutes more. Roast the garlic 45 to 50 minutes alongside the tomatoes.
• Place about 2/3 of the tomatoes in a food processor. Coarsely chop the remainder of the tomatoes, and reserve. Squeeze the garlic out of its skin, and add to the food processor pulsing until smooth. Add the mixture to a Dutch oven and add the olives, anchovies, capers, and chile. Cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Transfer to a small container for a make-ahead meal and refrigerate, or transfer to a serving bowl. Store the chopped tomatoes separately, or add to the serving bowl.
• To serve, bring water to a boil, salt the water and cook the pasta to al dente. Reheat the sauce. Toss the pasta with the sauce for 1 minute, to coat. Serve in shallow bowls with lots of parsley, and drizzle with more extra-virgin olive oil.
