Grilled Fish Collars Food

GRILLED FISH COLLARS

Steps:

• Put the collars in heavy duty freezer bags and add all the remaining ingredients save the lemon wedges. Seal the bags and shake them around to coat the collars well. Marinate in the fridge at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Get your grill nice and hot and clean the grates. Arrange the collars skin side up in one layer so they don't touch. Grill over high heat with the grill cover open until charred a little, about 5 minutes or so. Turn and do the same to the other side. If the meat's not cooked through (it will start to flake), give it a little more time.
• Serve hot with lemon wedges and a bowl to toss the various bits of bone and fin.

SWEET AND SALTY FISH COLLARS

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with 6 cups water and bring to a boil. Add the prunes and kombu and cook over medium heat for 45 minutes. Strain and return the liquid to the pot. (Discard the prunes and kombu, or reserve for other use. Keep in mind that the prunes might have a slightly briny taste.) Turn the heat to low and simmer for another 30 minutes, until the sauce thickens and reduces to a deeper flavored syrup. You should have about 2 cups.
• Heat a grill (preferably with hickory) until the grate is at high heat. (Alternatively you can set the oven to broil and cook them the same way on aluminum foil.) Brush the collars with the sauce. Grill (or broil), basting frequently with the sauce, for 2-3 minutes, checking to make sure the collar is seared and golden on one side and then flipping and searing on the other side for another 1-2 minutes, until just cooked. Remove immediately and serve with sauce on the side.

GRILLED HAMACHI COLLAR WITH PONZU DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Mix together the ponzu, mirin, soy sauce and ginger in a small bowl. Add sambal oelek to taste. Set aside half of the sauce for brushing on the fish as it grills.
• For the fish: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat and brush with oil so the fish doesn't stick. Brush the fish on both sides with dipping sauce and grill for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping and brushing with sauce every 5 minutes. When done, the fish should be crispy and nicely charred and the flesh cooked through. The best way check for doneness is to insert the tip of a knife or a cake tester into the flesh, then pull it out and hold it to your wrist; it should feel warm. When it does, you're ready!
• Mix the grated daikon and shiso in a small bowl.
• Serve the fish with the dipping sauce and daikon mixture on the side. If you like, add some of the daikon mixture to the dipping sauce.

GRILLED FISH COLLARS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for cooking and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the fish collars with salt and pepper, then grill for 4 to 6 minutes on each side. Remove to a baking sheet, then cover with the Chimichurri Sauce (don't be stingy, the more sauce, the more flavor).
• Bake until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F, 10 to 15 minutes. Let rest for 4 to 6 minutes. Serve with tortillas and lime wedges.
• Whisk together the olive oil, cilantro, parsley, thyme, vinegar, oregano, garlic, shallot, dried red pepper and salt and pepper in a bowl.
