PAN-ROASTED FISH FILLETS WITH HERB BUTTER



Pan-Roasted Fish Fillets With Herb Butter image

A blast of heat in a cast-iron pan and a basting of golden butter does wonders for plain fish fillets. This life-changing method is adopted from a former chef and current fishmonger, Mark Usewicz of Mermaid's Garden in Brooklyn, who also teaches cooking classes in topics like "How to Cook Fish in a New York City Apartment." The cooking time is so short that the smell - which, if your fish is fresh and not funky, should not be overpowering - will dissipate quickly. And in the meantime, you have an easy dinner of tender fish with a toothsome crust, anointed with nutty, lemony brown butter and perfumed with herbs. You can use virtually any fish fillet, skin on or off, as long as it is not too thick. If the butter is browning too fast, reduce the heat and add a nut of cold butter to prevent scorching, or squeeze in the juice of half a lemon.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 5- to 6-ounce fish fillets, like black bass, haddock, fluke, striped bass, tilefish, snapper or salmon, 1/2- to 1-inch thick
Salt and ground black pepper
3 tablespoons grapeseed or canola oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 sprigs fresh thyme, tarragon, chives or another herb
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley, optional
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Pat fillets dry with a paper towel. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a heavy 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil. Place the fillets in the pan, skin side down (if applicable), laying them down away from your body. If fillets have skin, press down gently with a spatula for about 20 seconds to prevent curling.
  • Lower heat to medium and let sizzle until fish is golden and caramelized around edges, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip fillets and add butter and thyme to pan. Tilt pan slightly to let the melted butter pool at one end. Use a spoon to baste the fish with the pooled butter. Continue basting until golden all over and cooked through, 45 to 90 seconds more, depending on the thickness of your fish. Serve immediately with chopped parsley (if using) and lemon wedges.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 skin-on branzino fillets, bones removed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons capers, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup pitted nicoise olives, halved
3 tablespoons dry white wine
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the branzino fillets on paper towels and dry well. With a sharp knife, score the skin of each fillet by making three shallow cuts on a slight diagonal. Sprinkle the fillets on all sides with the salt.
  • Add the oil to the hot pan; then add the fillets, skin side down, being sure to lay the fish away from you in the pan. Press gently on each fillet to make sure the skin has full contact with the pan. Allow the fish to cook undisturbed for 3 minutes. Using a fish spatula, gently flip the fillets and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove the branzino to a platter, skin side up, and keep warm.
  • To the hot pan, add the tomatoes, capers and olives. Cook for 1 minute, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add the white wine, reduce the heat to medium, and cook until the wine is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Stir in the butter and parsley. Spoon the sauce over the branzino and serve.

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 to 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds skin-on breast of chicken
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 cup finely diced yellow onion or shallot
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves, minced
3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • To bread the chicken, blend the flour, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Then dust the chicken on both sides with the seasoned flour, coating well. In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the grapeseed oil and allow to heat. Then add the floured chicken, skin-side down, cooking until slightly browned. This will take 4 to 5 minutes, then flip and repeat the process on the bottom side, again for 4 to 5 minutes. Once browned, finish the chicken in the oven until the internal temperature reaches 160 to 165 degrees F, about 6 minutes. Once cooked, remove from the oven, keep the chicken warm on a covered plate and discard any excess oil from the pan.
  • Return the pan to medium heat, splash or deglaze with the wine, allowing to dissipate. Next, add the onions, stir and cook until the onions are slightly translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the lemon juice and garlic, stir again and cook until warmed. Finally, remove from the heat, stir in the parsley and butter to finish the sauce. Serve over the chicken.
