OH MY ARCTIC CHAR!
I'm a huge fish fan and I'm always looking for new ways to make fish. I couldn't find any recipe that sounded tasty on the net for arctic char so I decided to try my cooking talent and come up with my own recipe. My husband and I couldn't believe how delicious this turned out, all of the flavors balanced perfectly. He wasn't hungry that night and ended up eating majority of the fish, haha! This recipe will not disappoint.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚. Cook the farro as the label directs; set aside. Meanwhile, working with 1 orange at a time, cut off the peel and white pith with a paring knife. Working over a bowl, cut in between the membranes, letting the citrus and juices fall into the bowl.
- Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with olive oil. Add the fennel slices, leaving 4 empty spots for the fish fillets. Add the fish curved-side up to the pan; season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the thyme.
- Heat the olive oil and garlic in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the garlic sizzles and begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully pour the garlic and oil into the bowl with the citrus and stir well to combine; season with salt and pepper.
- Spoon the citrus oil over the fish and fennel. Bake until the fish flakes when poked with a knife at the thickest part, 10 to 14 minutes. Divide the farro among plates and top with the fish, fennel and citrus mixture. Top with fennel fronds.

WHOLE ROASTED ARCTIC CHAR WITH FENNEL AND PISTOU
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Rinse the fish well inside and out and pat dry with paper towels. Lay the big-boy out on a large rimmed sheet pan; cut 4 gashes crosswise on both sides of the fish, slicing all the way down to the bone. Season the arctic char with a generous amount of salt and pepper, inside the cavity and all over the skin. Stuff the mixed herbs and fennel inside the body of the fish. Tuck a lemon slice and bay leaf inside each of the slats. Rub a decent amount of olive oil on all parts of the fish. Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skin is crispy and the fish itself is flaky. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with fennel fronds. Serve with Pistou sauce.
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until the garlic is finely chopped. Serve at room temperature with grilled or roasted fish.

ROASTED ARCTIC CHAR WITH LEEKS AND HORSERADISH CREAM
Steps:
- 1. To prepare the fish: Halve the leeks lengthwise, then slice crosswise and transfer to a large bowl of water. Swish leeks to release any grit; lift from the water. Drain.
- 2. Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add leeks and thyme, and cook, stirring, until wilted and liquid reduces, 6 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste. Add cider, bring to a boil, and cook until almost dry, 4 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, boil until thick and it coats the leeks. Add brandy, cook down slightly. Remove from heat and stir in parsley.
- 3. Open fish and season well with salt and pepper. Spread leek mixture along flesh and close fish. Tie closed with kitchen twine (or cooked leek greens) at 4-inch intervals. Brush oil all over skin, season with salt and pepper.
- 4. Preheat the broiler to high (with convection broiler if you have it). Line a pan with foil and lightly brush with oil. Place the prepared pan in broiler and heat for 5-10 minutes.
- Carefully lay the fish on the preheated pan. Broil fish until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 130 to 135 degrees F, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and rest fish for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
- 5. Stir all sauce ingredients together. Transfer fish to a serving platter, remove strings. Serve with sauce on the side.
