OH MY ARCTIC CHAR!



Oh My Arctic Char! image

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.

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (10 ounce) fillet arctic char, rinsed and patted dry
1 pinch sea salt to taste
1 lime, zested and juiced
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup sherry wine
3 sprigs rosemary, leaves stripped
2 cloves garlic
ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.
  • Season arctic char with salt, place in prepared baking dish, and sprinkle with lime zest.
  • Combine lime juice, olive oil, sherry, rosemary, and garlic in a food processor; pulse until garlic is finely chopped. Spread mixture over fish and season with black pepper and cayenne pepper.

OVEN-STEAMED ARCTIC CHAR WITH PIPERADE



Oven-Steamed Arctic Char With Piperade image

Arctic char, a cold-water pink-fleshed fish, is farmed in a more sustainable way than salmon and has the same good Omega-3s. Simply steamed in a low oven, it is complemented here with a sweet and savory pepper sauce. The sauce is great with just about any fish. Try it with a whole grilled striped bass (another one of Seafood Watch's Best Choices).

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 large green bell peppers or thin-skinned sweet peppers from the farmers' market
1 large red bell pepper or thin-skinned red pepper from the farmer's market
1 serrano or jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
2 large garlic cloves, minced
Salt
1 pound tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped, or 1 (14-ounce) can, drained
Pinch of sugar
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 pounds arctic char

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, nonstick skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add the peppers, chile, and garlic. Stir together until the garlic begins to smell fragrant, about 1 minute, and add salt to taste. Continue to cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, until the peppers are quite soft. Add the tomatoes, sugar, and thyme, bring to a simmer, turn the heat to low and cook uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring often. The mixture should be thick and sweet. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil the foil. Place the fish on top. Season with salt and gently rub the salt into the surface of the fish. Add pepper to taste. Fill a roasting pan with boiling water and place it on the oven floor. Place in the oven and bake until the fish flakes and white bubbles of protein appear on the surface, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the fillets (you can scrape them away if you don't like the look of them). Remove from the heat and serve topped with the piperade.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 skin-on Arctic-char fillets (6 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey, preferably raw and unfiltered
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving
2 teaspoons safflower oil
Steamed white or brown rice, for serving
Thinly sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds (optional), for serving
Sauteed Baby Bok Choy, for serving

Steps:

  • Season fish with salt and pepper. Whisk together soy sauce, honey, and lime juice.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add fish, skin-sides down, and cook, undisturbed, until skin is crisp and fish are opaque halfway up sides, about 2 minutes. Flip, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until just cooked through but still pink in centers, about 1 1/2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate, skin-sides up.
  • Wipe skillet clean; return to medium-high heat. Add soy mixture and boil until darkened slightly and reduced to a glaze, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and immediately return fish to skillet, gently flipping several times to evenly coat in glaze. Place fish over rice and drizzle with remaining glaze from skillet. Sprinkle with scallions and sesame seeds and serve, with bok choy.
