Mediterranean Fish Marinade Food

MARINATED MEDITERRANEAN FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients. Marinade fish fillets for 30 mins or more.
• Remove fish from marinade. Heat oil in non-stick frypan and fry fish until cooked through.

MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE MARINATED FISH (OR CHICKEN!) FILLETS

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, mix oil, vinegar, pepper, basil/thyme and garlic.
• Coat both sides of fillets.
• Break bay leaves into 3-4 pieces, press onto both sides of fillets.
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight (overnight is better!) Remove bay leaves and discard extra marinade.
• Sprinkle with salt and cook over medium high heat in large skillet (nonstick is best).
• For example: a thick cod fillet will need about 4 minutes per side, thin long fillets 2-3 minutes/side.
• Drippings in the pan are great on pasta--deglaze pan by adding a bit more red wine vinegar (or just WINE!) and toss with freshly cooked (not rinsed!) warm pasta.

MEDITERRANEAN GRILLED FISH

Steps:

• Lay down a piece of aluminum foil on the grill to cook on or use a grill pan designed for grilling fish on a BBQ.
• Heat grill to medium heat.
• In a small bowl, combine the garlic, basil, parsley and lemon juice.
• Spray the foil or grill pan with cooking spray. Be careful not to spray directly on your heat source, or you'll get a flare up.
• Place each fillet on the grill and spray the fillets with cooking spray.
• Top each piece of fish with equal amounts of the garlic mixture. Sprinkle with black pepper to your liking.
• Grill over medium heat turning once until the fish is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Garnish with green olives and lemon slices.

EASY MEDITERRANEAN SEAFOOD STEW

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and crushed red pepper. Cook and stir until onion is soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
• Increase heat to medium-high and add tomatoes, reserved potatoes, and white wine. Bring to a simmer. Cook, breaking the tomatoes up with a spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Pour in fish stock and return to a simmer.
• Add white fish to the pot, nestling the pieces down into the broth. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Add clams, shrimp, and calamari. Simmer until shrimp are pink and clams have opened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and discard any unopened clams.
• Turn off the heat and stir in basil, parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest. Ladle into bowls to serve.

EASIEST EVER FISH MARINADE

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, mix the soy sauce, vegetable oil, and bourbon whiskey. Place the halibut fillets in the dish, and marinate 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place halibut on the grill, and discard marinade. Cook 5 minutes on each side, until easily flaked with a fork.

THE ONLY MARINADE YOU'LL EVER NEED

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice, hot pepper flakes, cracked pepper, and salt in a nonreactive (glass, ceramic, or stainless steel) bowl and whisk until the salt crystals are dissolved. Add the lemon zest, garlic, parsley and basil. Stir or whisk in the olive oil. The virtue of this marinade is its freshness: Use it within 1 to 2 hours of making. Stir again before using.

SPICED HERB MARINADE FOR FISH

Steps:

• Chop the cilantro and parsley leaves together to a very fine mince. You should have 1 cup of minced herbs. Transfer to a saucepan.
• Crush the garlic with the sea salt in a mortar, or using the back of a spoon in a small bowl, to make a paste. Stir in the cumin, dried pepper, paprika, olive oil, and lemon juice. Add to the saucepan with the herbs and mix well.
• Have the fish steaks ready in a baking dish large enough to hold them all in one layer.
• Set the herb mixture over medium-low heat and warm until it is very hot, but not boiling. Taste and adjust the seasoning. When it is the way you want it, pour the warm marinade over the fish steaks. Cover with plastic and set aside for an hour or so.
• When you are ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Remove the plastic wrap and transfer the fish with their marinade to the oven. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the fish is done, basting every 5 minutes or so with the marinade.
• Serve immediately, spooning a little of the marinade over each serving.

MEDITERRANEAN FISH & COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Take one small sheet of foil, about A4 size, and put one fish fillet on top. Season the fish, then drizzle with half of the lemon juice and zest, half the sliced chillies and half of the basil.
• Halve 4 of the tomatoes and put these around the fish. Place another sheet of foil on top and fold the edges together to seal. Repeat with the other piece of fish and transfer to a baking sheet. Cook for 15-18 mins until the bag has puffed up (or cook on the barbecue).
• While the fish is cooking pour 100ml of boiling water over the couscous, cover, then leave to swell for 5 mins. Chop the rest of the tomatoes and mix with the couscous, balsamic, cucumber, the remaining basil, lemon juice and zest and olives. Season and serve alongside the fish with the lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over.

Spoon tomato mixture over the halibut. Carefully seal all the edges of the foil to create a large packet. Place the packet on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 30 to 40 minutes.
