Roasted Blue Eye Cod With Herb Crust Recipes

ROASTED BLUE-EYE WITH HERB CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 190C. Place the breadcrumbs, sage, parsley, parmesan and mustard in a food processor and whiz until well combined. Transfer to a bowl and season to taste. Whisk the eggs and yolk and slowly pour in enough to form a slightly moist dough. Pat a half-centimetre-thick crust on the top of each piece of fish and place on a greased tray. Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until just cooked through. Meanwhile, whisk the olive oil and lemon juice together and toss with the rocket. Serve the fish on starter plates with a small mound of rocket and a lemon wedge.

OVEN-ROASTED COD CRUSTED WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Pile parsley, garlic, lemon zest, and a little coarse salt on the cutting board. Finely chop the lemon-garlic mixture, then combine with plain bread crumbs.
• Brush the top of each fillet with olive oil and dip in to the bread crumb herb mixture. Brush a little bit of olive oil in the bottom of a baking pan then place fillet in the pan, crust side up. Roast fillets in oven until firm to the touch, about 12 to 15 minutes.

PAN-ROASTED FISH FILLETS WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Pat fillets dry with a paper towel. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat a heavy 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil. Place the fillets in the pan, skin side down (if applicable), laying them down away from your body. If fillets have skin, press down gently with a spatula for about 20 seconds to prevent curling.
• Lower heat to medium and let sizzle until fish is golden and caramelized around edges, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip fillets and add butter and thyme to pan. Tilt pan slightly to let the melted butter pool at one end. Use a spoon to baste the fish with the pooled butter. Continue basting until golden all over and cooked through, 45 to 90 seconds more, depending on the thickness of your fish. Serve immediately with chopped parsley (if using) and lemon wedges.
