Best Grilled Striped Bass With Tomatoes And Olives Recipes

GRILLED STRIPED BASS WITH FIRE-ROASTED ONIONS AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high.
• Sprinkle the fish fillets with salt and pepper. Divide the onions, peppers, and garlic into 6 portions. Place a mound of onions, peppers, and garlic in the center of a 12-by-24-inch sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place a portion of the fish on top, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon parsley and add 1/4 cup of the wine. Fold the foil into a packet and seal it on all sides. Repeat with packets for the remaining fillets.
• Place the packets on the grill, seam up, and cook until the fish is opaque, about 15 minutes. It is best to test the cook time with the one packet, as cooking time varies grill to grill. Carefully open the packets and serve with lemon wedges.

STRIPED BASS WITH ARTICHOKES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F. Season the fish with salt and pepper and refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the zest from the lemon using a vegetable peeler (reserve the lemon). Combine the lemon zest, parsley, garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor. With the motor running, gradually add the bread and pulse several times to make coarse crumbs. Spread the breadcrumbs evenly in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the artichokes, olives and tomatoes around the edge and bake until the exposed breadcrumbs in the middle are toasted, about 15 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the oven. Scoop out the toasted breadcrumbs and set aside. Add the fish to the baking dish and top with the toasted breadcrumbs. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cut the reserved lemon into wedges and squeeze on top.

GRILLED STRIPED BASS WITH CAULIFLOWER AND TOMATOES WITH CAPERBERRIES AND BLACK OLIVES WITH PARSLEY SALAD

Steps:

• For the stew:
• Coat a large saucepan with olive oil. Add the onions and bring to a medium heat. Add a generous pinch of salt and a small pinch of crushed red pepper. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until the onions look wilted and cooked but do not have any color. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and 3/4 of a can of water, and season with salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 to 30 minutes. Taste, it should taste good.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil over medium heat and season it generously with salt. It should taste like the ocean. Add the cauliflower, let the water come to a rolling boil and cook the cauliflower for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. When done it should be really soft and almost falling apart. Strain the cauliflower and add it to the tomato mixture. Cook the cauliflower in the tomato sauce until the cauliflower has completely broken up and the sauce clings to the cauliflower, about 20 to 30 minutes. Taste to see if the seasoning needs to be adjusted. Stir in the lemon zest, olives and caperberries. Reserve. (This can totally be done ahead, it actually gets better when it IS done ahead. But it is still really good when made to order.)
• For the fish:
• Preheat the grill to medium and brush with oil if needed to remove any food particles. Pat the fish skin dry to make sure it is really dry. If you have time, let it hang out to dry for a few minutes before you grill it. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt on both sides. Put the fish, skin side down, on the preheated grill. Cook the fish for 2 to 3 minutes and then rotate the fish 90 degrees to create crisscross grill marks. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes and then turn the fish over and cook for another 2 minutes.
• To assemble:
• Reheat the cauliflower if it was done ahead. Serve the fish on serving plates, leaning on a mound of the cauliflower. In a small bowl toss the parsley with the lemon juice, salt and big fat drizzle of finishing oil. Garnish the fish with the parsley salad and more finishing oil, if desired.
• YAY!

STRIPED BASS WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND OLIVES

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the garlic; cook, stirring, until just golden, about 30 seconds.

• Coat both sides of the fish with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a medium roasting pan, skinned side down. Spoon the tomato mixture over the fish. Cook until opaque, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve topped with sauce from the pan.

FISH WITH TOMATOES, OLIVES AND CAPERS

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of oil over a medium-high heat. Add fish and cook until opaque in the center, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a platter and tent with foil to keep the fish warm.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in the same skillet; add onion and saute for 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives and capers and crushed red pepper, if using, and cook for 3 minutes more. Stir in the spinach and cook until it is wilted, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon the sauce over the fish and serve.

ROASTED STRIPED BASS WITH FENNEL, TOMATOES, AND OIL-CURED OLIVES

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F. Boil wine in medium saucepan until reduced to 1 cup, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve.
• Generously brush 18x12x1-inch baking sheet with olive oil. Arrange fennel slices in single layer on prepared baking sheet. Top with onion slices in single layer. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Drizzle 4 tablespoons oil over vegetables.
• Rinse fish inside and out; pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle fish inside and out with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Lightly dust outside of fish with flour. Pour enough olive oil into extra-large skillet to reach depth of 1/4 inch; heat over medium-high heat until oil is very hot. Working with 1 fish at a time, add fish to skillet and fry until golden crust forms on skin, about 3 minutes per side. Carefully place fish atop vegetables on baking sheet. Gently stuff cavity of each fish with 2 crushed garlic cloves, then 1/4 cup chopped parsley. Pour reserved wine over vegetables on baking sheet.
• Roast fish uncovered until vegetables begin to soften, 35 to 40 minutes. Scatter tomato halves and olives around fish; bake until fish is just cooked through, about 15 minutes longer. Transfer fish to large platter; cover with foil to keep warm. Increase oven temperature to 475°F. Continue to bake vegetables uncovered until tender and tomatoes are very soft and beginning to color in spots, about 15 minutes longer.
• Arrange vegetable mixture around fish on platter. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Sprinkle chopped fennel fronds over fish and serve.

GRILLED STRIPED BASS

Steps:

• Combine oil, lemon juice, thyme or oregano, garlic, and pepper in a large shallow bowl. Add fish to marinade, and turn to coat; cover with plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator 30 minutes.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove fish from marinade, letting excess drip off. Place on grill, skin side down, and season with salt. Grill until skin is lightly browned and starting to crisp. Carefully turn fillets, and cook until well browned and cooked through (center will be opaque), 5 to 6 minutes. Garnish with chives and lemon wedges, if desired. Serve hot or at room temperature.

STRIPED BASS WITH POTATOES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Use a little oil to brush the bottom of a shallow baking dish that can go to the table and is large enough to hold the fish in one piece. Spread potatoes in dish, overlapping, and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake 20 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Season flesh side of fish with salt and pepper. Place fish skin side up on the potatoes, sprinkle on remaining oil, scatter olives around and place bay leaves on top. Cover with parchment paper and bake 20 minutes, or until fish is just cooked through at the thickest part (a sharp knife will penetrate easily). Garnish with lemon and serve.
