Baked Sole With Lobster Food

BAKED SOLE FILLET, THE MEDITERRANEAN WAY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil and melted butter with a dash of seasoned salt. Stir in the shallots, garlic and capers.
• In a separate small bowl, mix together the seasoned salt, pepper, cumin and garlic powder. Spice fish fillets each on both sides.
• Place the fish fillets on a lightly-oiled large baking pan or dish. Cover with the buttery lime mixture you prepared earlier. Now arrange the green onion halves and lime slices on top.
• Bake in 375 degrees F-heated oven for 10-15 minutes. Do not overcook.
• Remove the fish fillets from the oven and garnish with the chopped fresh dill.
• Serve next to white rice or roasted Greek potatoes and a simple Mediterranean salad.

BAKED SOLE WITH LEMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Season sole fillets with salt.
• In a small bowl, whisk together oil and lemon juice. Pour into a 13X9 glass baking dish. Add fish and coat each fillet with the lemon-oil mixture.
• Sprinkle fillets evenly with breadcrumbs, then with the cheese and finish with a sprinkle of paprika.
• Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
• Serve and enjoy!

BAKED LEMON SOLE WITH LEMON & CAPER PASTE

Steps:

• First, make the caper paste. Blend the ingredients in a blender or small food processor for 2 mins until you have a smooth-ish purée (if using a food processor, you might need to scrape down the sides once or twice with a spatula). Transfer to a small bowl, cover with cling film and place in the fridge until needed. Can be made 2 days ahead and chilled.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Scatter the lemon zest, lemon thyme and shallots onto a baking tray or ovenproof dish. Sprinkle the fish lightly with salt and put it on top of the shallots, skin-side up. Place pieces of butter on each fish and pour in 200ml water - this will steam the fish and keep it juicy.
• Put the fish and the prepared tray of potatoes (see recipe in Goes well with) in the oven at the same time and bake both for 10 mins, basting the fish halfway through. While the fish cooks, wilt the greens (see recipe in Goes well with) and take the caper paste out of the fridge to come to room temperature.
• Take the fish out of the oven and baste it one last time, then use a cook's blowtorch to char the skin, if you like. Transfer the fish to a serving plate with some of the shallots and lemon zest. Spoon a little of the caper paste over the fish and serve immediately with the new potatoes and wilted spring greens.

EASY AND ELEGANT BAKED STUFFED LOBSTER

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• To instantly kill the lobster , place the lobster flat on a cutting board and plunge the tip of a sharp knife straight down just behind the lobster's eyes to cut the spinal cord. (Alternatively, you can freeze the lobster for 30 to 60 minutes.)
• Flip the lobster over on its back. Using a sharp knife or kitchen shears , cut the lobster's body cavity open all the way down to the end of the tail but not all the way through.
• Remove and reserve the tomalley (yellowish-green colored liver).
• Remove the stomach and intestines, being careful not to rupture them, and discard.
• Rinse the lobster cavity and set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the cracker crumbs, melted butter, celery, onion, 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, lemon pepper, and salt to taste.
• Add the tomalley from the lobster and mix gently.
• Pack the cracker mixture into the lobster's body cavity.
• Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of Parmesan cheese and dust lightly with paprika.
• Bake the stuffed lobster in an uncovered 2-inch-deep baking pan for 30 minutes. If needed, place under the broiler and broil for another 2 minutes to brown the stuffing. Serve the stuffed lobster immediately with melted butter on the side, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, combine cooled vegetables, crabmeat, and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Season crab mixture with salt and white pepper, to taste.
• Season sole fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Spoon crabmeat mixture down the center of the fillets and roll lengthwise into bundles. Using toothpicks, secure the ends so that the fillets won't unwrap during baking. Place sole fillet bundles, seam-side down, in a lightly greased 9-inch square baking dish. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter begins to foam, add the parsley, garlic, lemon juice, and Worcestershire.

Continue until all the butter is incorporated and the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Immediately remove the pan from the heat to prevent the sauce from getting too hot and breaking.
• Pour warm meuniere sauce over crabmeat stuffed sole and serve immediately.

• Use your food processor for this recipe. If you don't have one (really try to borrow one from a neighbor). I have not tried to do this any other way.
