Garlic Lime Marinated Trout Food

TROUT WITH LIME & THYME

Steps:

• In a plastic zipper bag, combine all ingredients and mix well to coat the fish fillets.
• Allow to marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours.
• When ready to cook, discard marinade and grill, broil or saute trout as you normally would (I like to saute it for about 10 to 15 minutes total, turning once, until fish flakes easily).

GRILLED TEQUILA LIME FISH TACOS

Steps:

• For the cabbage: In a large mixing bowl, combine the vinegar, sugar and salt and mix together well. Add the cabbage and stir to coat everything evenly. Allow to marinate for 15 minutes. Fold in the cilantro and set aside until ready to use.
• For the fish marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the tequila, cumin, garlic, lime juice and some salt and pepper. Portion the fish into 1-inch cubes and add to the marinade. Set aside to marinate for 4 to 5 minutes.
• To cook the fish: Heat a flat top grill to high and coat with a little oil. Skewer 4 to 5 pieces of fish on each skewer. Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the fish is white and cooked through, about 1 minute on each side and about 4 minutes total. Remove the skewers and allow to rest.
• Warm the tortillas in batches on the grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the tortillas to a towel-lined foil pouch and cover loosely to keep warm.
• To build the tacos, drizzle a little Cilantro Lime Crema on a tortilla. Top with some strained red cabbage mixture and then place a skewer of fish on top. Slide out the skewer so the fish stays on the taco, and then finish with more lime crema. Garnish with some crumbled Cotija and hot sauce and serve with a wedge of lime on the side. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, milk, cilantro, garlic, cumin and lime juice and chill for 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper.

GARLIC-LIME MARINATED TROUT

Steps:

• In a large shallow dish, stir together the marinade ingredients. Add the fish, turning several times to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes to 1 hour.
• Lightly spray the grill rack or broiler pan and rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill on medium high or preheat the broiler.
• Transfer the fish with the flesh side up to a large plate, discarding the marinade. Sprinkle the flesh side of the fish with the salt. Using your fingertips, gently press the salt so it adheres to the fish.
• If grilling, place the fish with the flesh side down on the grill and grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. If broiling, place the fish with the flesh side up on the broiler rack and broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat for 5 to 6 minutes without turning, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with the lime wedges to squeeze over the fish.

SPICY GARLIC-LIME FISH SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small jar add the Thai chilies and garlic. Then add the fish sauce, lime juice, 1 to 2 tablespoons of water and brown sugar. Mix until the sugar is dissolved. Secure an airtight lid. For the best flavor, refrigerate for 2 hours before using.

GINGER-GARLIC SHRIMP WITH COCONUT MILK

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, mix together the garlic, ginger, turmeric, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper and the olive oil. Add the shrimp and mix to coat well.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add the shrimp in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, for 2 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and soy sauce, stir to combine and turn the shrimp. Raise the heat to high and adjust it to maintain a simmer (avoid bringing to a boil), and cook until the liquid is slightly thickened and shrimp are almost cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach in batches until wilted.
• Remove from the heat and squeeze in the juice from a lime half. Adjust seasoning with more lime and salt as needed. Top with the chiles, scallions and cilantro, and serve with rice, noodles or naan.

CHILLI LIME AND GARLIC MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix ingredients together in a dish.
• Rub over meat/fish/tofu and leave to marinade.

SOY LIME MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients and marinate with your choice of meat!
• Marinade for less than 2 hours for chicken or fish, and marinade no more than 4 hours for beef or pork. Use your judgment, DH and I like super strong flavors and will marinate for up to 8 hours.

STEAKS IN GARLIC LIME MARINADE (PALOMILLA)

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except for the steaks in a food processor or blender. Process until the mixture is a smooth liquid paste.
• On a plate or in a zip top bag, combine 1/2 of the marinade with the steaks, making sure the meat is well coated. Let sit in the refrigerator for 1/2 hour. Reserve the remaining marinade.
• Grill the steaks over high heat, 2-3 minutes per side, basting if desired with the remaining marinade.
• Remove to a serving dish, brush with any remaining marinade, and serve.

GARLIC-LIME SWORDFISH

Steps:

• Combine juice, zest, oil, paste, garlic, salt, sugar, and pepper.
• Marinate fish for at least 3 hours.
• Broil for 5-7 minutes on each side.

FISH SKEWERS WITH HERBS AND LIME

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. In a mixing bowl, combine garlic, fish sauce and red-pepper flakes. Whisk in oil. Add fish cubes and gently toss to evenly coat. Let marinate while the grill heats up.
• Thread marinated fish onto metal or pre-soaked bamboo skewers (see Tip), pushing them up so they touch. This keeps them from overcooking.
• When the grill is hot, lightly brush the grates with oil and add the skewers. Cook until slightly charred in places, about 2 to 4 minutes, rotating them carefully halfway through.
• Transfer to a serving platter, and immediately squeeze 2 or 3 lime wedges on top of the fish while still hot. Garnish fish with scallions and herbs, and serve with more lime wedges on the side.
