Best Steamed Bass With Corn And Zucchini Recipes

ZUCCHINI CORN SALAD

Steps:

• In a large salad bowl, combine the corn, bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, cilantro, and feta cheese.
• In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. I also love to add few teaspoons of honey to bring out the sweetness of corn but it is totally optional.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and throughly toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes. Before serving, stir the salad and taste. Does it need more salt? More lime juice? Or maybe even more feta or cilantro.

STEAMED BASS WITH CORN AND ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high. Add onion, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Saute until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add potatoes and broth, and bring to a boil. Cover, and cook for 5 minutes, add clams and cook, covered, 5 minutes. Stir in corn and zucchini. Push clams aside, and nestle fish into pan in a single layer, leaving space between pieces. Cover, and cook until clams are open and fish is opaque, 4 to 6 minutes more.

STEAMED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Trim ends from zucchini. Cut each one in half, then cut each half lengthwise into quarters.
• Place zucchini and garlic into a steamer basket, then place the steamer basket into the pot. Steam for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the zucchini are tender.
• Transfer zucchini to a large bowl. Mash the garlic and put it in the bowl with the zucchini. Drizzle the olive oil into the bowl and toss until the vegetables are coated with oil and garlic.

FRESH CORN AND ZUCCHINI SAUTE

Steps:

• Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Cook and stir onion in the melted butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Cut kernels from the ears of corn. Add zucchini and corn; cook and stir until zucchini is tender, about 8 minutes. Season with sea salt and pepper.

STEAMED SEA BASS WITH VANILLA, BABY VEGETABLES AND CAPPUCCINO SAUCE

Steps:

• Remove the seeds from the vanilla pod and place both the seeds and pod on a plate with the lemon juice and olive oil. Mix up with a fork, then place the fish on the plate and turn it so both fillets are covered. Place the vanilla seeds and lemon leaf on top of the fillets, reserving the vanilla pod.
• Split the leeks down the middle, 1-inch from the end, and wash under cold water. Mix the peas, broad beans and new potatoes together.
• Put the milk into a saucepan with the reserved vanilla pod and slowly simmer over a medium heat. In a bamboo steamer* place the leeks on the bottom, then cover with the pea mix. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then place the steamer over the pan of milk. In a second bamboo steamer place the lemon leaf, and the fillets skin side up. Open up the score marks and pour over the juices from the plate. Place the lid on top and cook for 10 to 15 minutes on a slow simmer.
• Remove the steamers from the pan, place some vegetables on each plate, and top with the fish. To finish the sauce, remove the vanilla pod from the milk and whiz up with a cappuccino frother or 'whizzer', or in a liquidizer. This gives the sauce a thick cappuccino effect, which is both visually and texturally very nice.

STUFFED ZUCCHINI BITES WITH BLACK BEANS AND CORN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Using a melon baller, carefully scoop out a little spot in the center of each zucchini round for the filling to sit, making sure to leave about a 1/2-inch "floor" at the bottom. Put the scooped zucchini centers on a cutting board, season with salt and pepper and chop.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the beans, corn and chopped zucchini centers. Cook, stirring frequently, until the zucchini begins to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stuff the zucchini cups with the filling and bake on a rimmed baking sheet until the zucchini is cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Top with grated Cotija and serve.

FISH FILLETS WITH TOMATO-ZUCCHINI SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until onion is almost tender, about 3 minutes. Add zucchini and oregano and sauté until zucchini is beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and 1/2 cup reserved juice and bring to boil. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Place fish atop vegetables in skillet. Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until fish is just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Transfer fish to platter; tent with foil to keep warm. Increase heat; boil mixture in skillet until liquid thickened to sauce consistency, about 5 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over fish.
