POTATO-CRUSTED FLOUNDER STUFFED WITH FIRE-ROASTED RED PEPPERS AND CHORIZO TOPPED WITH ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the tomato sauce: Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
• Cut the tomatoes into wedges and put in a small bowl. Add the oil and balsamic vinegar, and then season with the salt and pepper.
• Place the tomatoes on a rack, and then place the rack on a sheet pan. Roast for 30 to 45 minutes until the edges brown well and the tomatoes become very soft.
• Put the tomatoes and all juices in a sieve and drain over a small pot. This should remove the skin and seeds and leave you with a thin tomato sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer and reduce until the sauce is a medium thickness, about 5 minutes. Stir in the butter. Add the salt and pepper, to taste, and keep warm.
• To make the stuffing: In a large saute pan, add the olive oil, then chorizo, and let it cook for about 2 minutes. Add the onion and garlic, and saute on medium heat until the onions are soft, about 2 or 3 minutes. Add the oregano and bay leaf and cook another 2 minutes, until you can smell the herbs cooking. Add the diced bell peppers and sherry and let simmer 1 minute. Turn off heat. Fold in the bread crumbs until all liquid has been absorbed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and set aside.
• To make the potato crust: Using an Asian turning mandoline or a vegetable peeler, peel long thin strings of potato. Put the potato strings in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and add the cornstarch. Mix with a spoon until well blended and set aside.
• To stuff and crust the fish: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lay out the fillets flat on a work surface and season with salt and pepper. Place a golf-ball sized piece of stuffing in the center of 1 fillet. Lay another fillet over the stuffing and press softly to distribute the stuffing. Take a small handful of the stringed potato mixture and lay it over the top fillet, leaving only 1/4-inch uncovered around the edges. Press down lightly. Repeat process with remaining fillets.
• Heat a large nonstick, oven-proof saute pan and melt the butter. Place the flounder in the pan, potato-side down, and fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Carefully flip over stuffed flounder and place pan in oven for 9 to 12 minutes, or until fish is cooked through.
• Remove the fish from the oven. Ladle 2 ounces of tomato sauce onto the plate. Lay the stuffed flounder over the sauce and serve with a vegetable, such as sauteed spinach.

SAUTEED FLOUNDER WITH SEASONED BROWN BUTTER

Steps:

• Pat fillets dry, season with salt and pepper and dredge in flour and shake off excess flour. In a measuring cup, melt butter in microwave. Heat non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Pour in clear butter and leave milk solids in measuring cup. Place fish in hot butter and cook until golden. Flip fillet and cook other side until golden. Remove golden fish to paper towels to drain. In a small skillet, heat butter over medium high heat until milk solids begin to brown. Stir in lemon juice and parsley. Drizzle browned butter over fillet and serve immediately.

POTATO CRUNCHY TENDERS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• While the oil is heating, beat the milk and egg together in a bowl. In another bowl, stir together the instant mashed potatoes, salt, and pepper.
• Stir the chicken tenders with the milk mixture to coat thoroughly, then shake off excess milk and dip each tender into the potato flakes. Place the breaded tenders into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

NEW POTATOES WITH BALSAMIC AND SHALLOT BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the vinegar to a boil; reduce the temperature to low and simmer until the vinegar is reduced to 2 tablespoons of liquid - it will be thick and syrupy and will take about 10 minutes.
• Pour reduced vinegar into another bowl and let cool completely.
• While vinegar is cooling, place the potatoes in a saucepan and add water to cover; bring to a boil then reduce heat and let simmer for 20 minutes or until tender, then drain.
• While potatoes are cooking, to the cooled reduced vinegar add the melted butter, chopped shallots, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and black pepper, whisk well to incorporate and set aside.
• Cut the drained cooked potatoes in half (or 3rds diagonally, if using fingerlings), and place in a serving bowl.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over the potatoes, toss, then add the butter mixture and basil or parsley and toss gently to coat.
• Serve immediately.

FLOUNDER WITH NEW POTATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• For each serving, grease a shallow 2-cup baking dish or gratin dish with /2 tsp of the butter or margarine.
• In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the remaining butter or margarine; stir in the bread crumbs and set aside.
• Slice the potatoes and onion as thinly as possible and arrange them in alternating layers in the prepared dishes. Pour the cider or apple juice over the vegetables and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Reduce the oven temprature to 350 degrees.
• Spoon the liquid in the baking dishes over the vegetables to baste them, then arrange the fish over the vegetables, folding the tips of any long, thin fillets under if necessary to fit them into the baking dish. Sprinke the buttered crumbs over the fish and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and firm to the touch and the crumb topping is golden brown.
