BLACKFISH CHOWDER

Steps:

• Discard bacon dripping except for approximately 2 tablespoons.
• Add onions and sauté in bacon fat until tender but not brown.
• Transfer onions to a deep saucepan and add potatoes and water.
• Cover and bring to a gentle boil.

• Add fish and simmer for about 10 more minutes or until fish and potatoes are done.
• In a small bowl combine flour and clam juice and stir with a fork until smooth.

BAKED COD WITH POTATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a large, rectangular baking dish.
• Place the fish in the prepared dish. Arrange potato and onion slices around and on top. Pour enough milk over top to just barely cover. Season with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Dot butter over top.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork and potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes, checking frequently and adding more milk if necessary. Serve in large bowls.

PAN-FRIED BLACKFISH FILLETS WITH WARM HERB VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Scrape off any remaining scales and season the fillets on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 to 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan or skillet over medium heat, using the smaller amount of oil for a nonstick pan. Add the fillets and adjust the heat according to their thickness. (The thicker the fillet the lower the heat.) If your pan is not large enough to hold all the fillets without overcrowding, saute them in two batches, adding more oil if necessary for the second batch. Cook the fillets for about 4 minutes altogether for a 1/2-inch-thick fillet, turning them halfway through the cooking time (or covering them if fragile), and transfer them to hot plates or a hot platter.
• Wipe the oil out of the pan with a paper towel and add the vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil and the herbs. Return the pan to the heat and bring the sauce to a rapid boil for half a minute. Remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste, spoon over the blackfish fillets and serve immediately.
