Roast Prosciutto Wrapped Fish Food

PROSCIUTTO ROASTED BASS WITH AUTUMN VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• For the vegetables, place the butternut squash, potatoes, parsnips, and carrots on a sheet pan and drizzle with 1/3 cup olive oil. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and toss together. Spread out in a single layer and roast for 30 minutes, turning once during cooking. After 30 minutes, toss with the garlic and roast for another 10 minutes, until all the vegetables are tender and starting to brown.
• Meanwhile, line another sheet pan with aluminum foil, and place a baking rack on top of the foil. Brush the fish fillets on both sides with olive oil and season them liberally with salt and pepper. Wrap each fillet with a slice of prosciutto to form a wide band around the center of the fillet, overlapping the ends on the skin side. Arrange the fillets on the rack with the prosciutto seam side down and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, until barely cooked.
• While the vegetables and fish are roasting, melt the butter over medium heat in a medium-size saute pan. Add the rosemary sprigs and cook over low heat until the rosemary leaves are crisp and the butter begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Discard the rosemary, stir in the lemon juice, and set aside.
• To serve, place the fish on a platter or individual plates, spoon the rosemary butter on top, and surround with the vegetables. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve hot.

PANCETTA-WRAPPED FISH WITH LEMONY POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the potatoes in a pan of water and boil for 10-12 mins until tender. Add the beans for the final 2-3 mins. Drain well and slice the potatoes in half. Tip into a roomy baking dish and toss with the olives, lemon zest and oil. Season well.
• Season the fish and wrap with the pancetta or bacon. Place on top of the potatoes. Bake for 10-12 mins until cooked through, then add a squeeze of lemon juice and scatter with tarragon before serving.

COD BAKED WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick liner or aluminum foil.
• Brush cod fillets with butter, and season with salt and pepper. Wrap each in a slice or two of prosciutto, leaving ends of fillets unwrapped. (If slices tear or are narrow, more than two may be used to wrap each fillet.) Brush with butter again, and place on baking sheet.
• Bake fish until firm and white at unwrapped ends, 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully remove from baking sheet, and, if desired, place each fillet on a bed of lentils.

DELICIOUS ROASTED WHITE FISH WRAPPED IN SMOKED BACON WITH LEMON MAYONNAISE AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. Season your beautiful fish fillets with the rosemary, finely grated lemon zest (no bitter white pith, please) and pepper - you don't need to use salt because we're going to wrap the fish in the lovely salty smoked bacon. Lay your rashers of bacon or pancetta on a board and one by one run the flat of a knife along them to thin them and widen them out. Lay 3 rashers together, slightly overlapping, put a fish fillet on top and wrap the rashers around it.
• Lightly heat a large ovenproof frying pan, add a splash of olive oil and lay your fish, prettiest side facing up, in the pan. Fry for a minute, then place the pan in your preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until the bacon is crisp and golden.
• While the fish is cooking, you can make your simple lemon mayonnaise. I do this by mixing quality low-fat mayonnaise with the juice of half a lemon and pepper. You want to add enough lemon juice to make the flavour slightly too zingy. This is because, when you eat it with the asparagus and the fish, it will lessen slightly in intensity. And don't worry if the mayo looks a little thinner than usual when you've added the lemon juice - think of it as more delicate.
• The asparagus is a great accompaniment because, like the fish, it also loves bacon. You can either boil or steam it; either way it's light and a nice contrast to the meatiness of the fish. When cooked, toss it in the juices that come out of the fish. Simply serve the fish next to a nice pile of asparagus, drizzled with the lemon-spiked mayonnaise. And if you're feeling very hungry, serve with some steaming-hot new potatoes.

PAN-ROASTED HALIBUT WITH PROSCIUTTO, LEMON, WHITE WINE, AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the flour on a deep plate or in a shallow bowl and season well with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish in the flour. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon oil and the butter and get the skillet hot. Add the fillets and cook until browned on 1 side, 2 to 3 minutes. At the same time, add the prosciutto and cook, stirring, to brown. Then flip the fish, put the skillet in the oven, and roast until the fish is just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the fish to 2 serving plates. Dump the prosciutto out onto paper towels to drain. Put the skillet back over medium heat. Add another tablespoon olive oil, the white wine, lemon juice, capers, the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the parsley and bring to a boil; boil until reduced and thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the fish, top with the prosciutto, and serve immediately.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED COD WITH ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C/375F.
• Season the fish with salt and pepper, then gently wrap tightly each cod fillet with a slice of prosciutto. Brush each fillet with a little olive oil then place on a baking tray.
• In a bowl, mix together the tomatoes with 1 tbsp of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, oregano and thyme. Season with salt and pepper and gently mix until tomatoes are well coated.
• Place the tomatoes on the tray, pouring over them any leftover dressing.
• Bake in the oven in the middle shelf for 10-15 minutes or until the fish is opaque and cooked through (it should flake easily).
• Remove the fish from the oven and set aside on a warm plate. Move the tray on the top shelf and continue to cook the tomatoes for a further 4-5 min.
• Remove from the oven, arrange the fish back in the tray and sprinkle with few basil leaves (optional).
• Serve to the table family-style directly from the tray.

BAKED COD WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425˚F. Pat dry the cod fillets with paper towels and remove any stray bones.
• Place filet onto a rimmed baking sheet and fold the thin sides onto the filet to create a uniformly thick filet. Season all sides with salt and pepper and drizzle each side with 1 Tbsp of olive oil.
• Place strips of prosciutto over the filet overlapping the slices as you go to avoid any gaps in prosciutto. Tuck the layers underneath the filet. The ends do not need to be fully covered.
• Place tomatoes in a bowl, season lightly with salt and pepper, and drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil. Toss to combine.
• Add seasoned tomatoes to the baking sheet around the fish and bake at 425˚F for 35 minutes or until the center of the fish reaches 145F on an instant-read thermometer. The fish should be flaky in the thickest part of the filet. Cool for 5 minutes then slice into portions with a serrated knife and spoon pan juices over the slices to serve.
