Grilled Rockfish Striped Bass Food

GRILLED STRIPED BASS WITH FIRE-ROASTED ONIONS AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high.
• Sprinkle the fish fillets with salt and pepper. Divide the onions, peppers, and garlic into 6 portions. Place a mound of onions, peppers, and garlic in the center of a 12-by-24-inch sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place a portion of the fish on top, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon parsley and add 1/4 cup of the wine. Fold the foil into a packet and seal it on all sides. Repeat with packets for the remaining fillets.
• Place the packets on the grill, seam up, and cook until the fish is opaque, about 15 minutes. It is best to test the cook time with the one packet, as cooking time varies grill to grill. Carefully open the packets and serve with lemon wedges.

Grill until skin is lightly browned and starting to crisp. Carefully turn fillets, and cook until well browned and cooked through (center will be opaque), 5 to 6 minutes. Garnish with chives and lemon wedges, if desired. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Slice off the top and bottom of 2 oranges; stand each up on a cut end. Slice off the peel and white pith with a knife, following the curve of the fruit. Turn each on its side and slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, then quarter the rounds. Halve the remaining orange and squeeze the juice into a bowl. Stir in the olive oil, sliced oranges, jalapeno, olives, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; set aside.
• Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Season the fish with salt and pepper and transfer skin-side down to the grill. Cook, turning once, until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes; transfer to a plate. Grill the bread, turning once, until marked, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Divide the watercress among 4 plates. Top with the fish and any collected juices from the plate. Spoon the orange mixture over the fish. Rub both sides of the bread with the garlic; serve with the fish.
