Bluefish With Mustard Sauce And Chives Food

BROILED BLUEFISH WITH TOMATO AND HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Line rack of a broiler pan with foil.
• Put fish skin sides down on foil and sprinkle with pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, dill, and chives in a small bowl. Spread evenly over fish, then cover with tomato slices, overlapping slightly, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Broil fish 3 to 4 inches from heat until just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.

BROILED TILAPIA WITH MUSTARD-CHIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the fish: Preheat a broiler. Spray a small baking sheet or flameproof baking dish with vegetable oil cooking spray. Set aside.
• Drizzle the tilapia fillets on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the fillets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and broil until cooked through and the flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• For the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, agave nectar, and mustard until smooth. Whisk in the lemon juice and chives. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Transfer the tilapia to a serving platter and drizzle with the sauce.

ROAST SIDE OF SALMON WITH MUSTARD, TARRAGON, AND CHIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 450°F. Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix first 7 ingredients in medium bowl. Season mustard sauce lightly with salt and generously with pepper. Place salmon, skin side down, on diagonal on prepared sheet. Spoon 1/2 cup mustard sauce atop salmon, then spread over, covering completely. Sprinkle salmon generously with salt and pepper. Roast just until salmon is opaque in center, about 15 minutes. Using parchment as aid, transfer salmon to platter. Cut crosswise into pieces and serve with remaining mustard sauce.

BAKED BLUEFISH WITH SWEET MUSTARD GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly oil a baking dish large enough to hold the fish in a single layer. Place the bluefish skin side down in the dish.
• In a small bowl, combine the mustard, sugar, tarragon and soy sauce, and spread evenly over the fish.
• Bake about 20 minutes, until the fish is opaque when flaked in the center with the tip of a knife. Serve at once.

MUSTARD AND CHIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small pan and stir in the flour.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard.
• Return the pan to the heat and gradually incorporate the milk, beating with a spoon as it comes up to a boil.
• Season with salt and pepper and let simmer gently, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes.
• This cooks the flour and thickens the sauce.
• Stir in the chives, adding a touch of soup stock or water if it seems too thick.
• Spoon over slices of ham.

BLUEFISH DIJONNAISE

• Place a large cast-iron griddle or ovenproof skillet under the broiler and preheat until very hot, at least 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, mustard and thyme in a small bowl.
• Generously season the fillets with salt and pepper. Paint one side of each fillet thickly with the mustard mixture.
• Place the fish in the skillet, painted side up, and broil until the coating is brown and bubbling, 3 to 4 minutes.
