Shad And Shad Roe With Lemon Shallot Butter Sauce Recipes

SHAD AND SHAD ROE WITH LEMON SHALLOT BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the shad fillets in half crosswise. Season the fillets and roe with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in each of two nonstick skillets and add the fillets skin side down in one pan. In the other pan add the roe and cook both over medium heat for 3 minutes, shaking the pans. Then turn the fillets and roe and cook for 3 minutes more. (It is a good idea to cover the pan with the roe while cooking to prevent splattering.)
• Remove the fish with a slotted spatula to a warm serving plate or platter. Separate each pair of roe lengthwise. Place a half on top of each piece of shad.
• In one of the skillets, add the butter and shallots. Cook and stir until wilted.
• Add the lemon juice and the parsley. Cook briefly while stirring, and then pour the mixture over the fish and serve.

SHAD ROE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet. While foaming is subsiding, lightly dredge roe in flour and shake off excess. Add roe and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Turn over, and brown on the other side. Remove the roe to a plate. If necessary add more butter to the skillet. Add ginger and saute for a moment. Add lemon juice and remove from heat; season with salt and pepper, add parsley or chives and spoon over shad. Serve with lemon or lime wedges.
