RED FISH MEUNIERE PECAN



Red Fish Meuniere Pecan image

This is my favorite Meuniere sauce recipe. You saw many a different variation of this sauce paired with different fish and sometimes even steak down in New Orleans. It's a variation of the basic brown butter sauce, but done in a french/creole fashion. Very simple and delicious! You can leave out the pecans if they don't tickle your fancy, it's just as good.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

24 ounces red fish fillets
1/4 cup cornflour
1/2 cup white flour
2 teaspoons creole seasoning
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
kosher salt
2 tablespoons toasted pecan pieces

Steps:

  • Combine corn flower, white flour, creole seasoning, and white pepper together in a bowl or dish.
  • Heat olive oil and one tablespoon butter in large frying pan on Med heat.
  • Dredge red fish (can sub trout) in seasoned flour mixture, making sure to tap extra flour off before placing in hot pan. Turn heat to Med-High and let cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, lightly shaking the pan by the handle over the heat for the first minute to avoid the fish from sticking (and again when you flip over).
  • Once fish is done remove and place on a plate or serving dish.
  • Immediately add butter, lemon juice, parsley, Worcestershire and sprinkle of salt to hot pan. Let butter melt and the sauce start to bubble, will turn a very light brownish color. Remove pan from heat and pour the butter/meuniere sauce over fillets.
  • Sprinkle fillets with toasted pecan pieces.
  • Serve with rice and veggies. I like to garnish with thin lemon wedges and fresh parsley.

  • In a frying pan heat some oil first and then fry on each side for a few minutes until browned and done
  • Serve with the sauce on the side as a burger on a bun or with fries or sautéed potatoes with a salad
