Baked Fish With Summer Squash Recipes

BAKED COD AND SUMMER SQUASH IN FOIL PACKETS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F. Season fish with salt and pepper. Arrange 4 large sheets of aluminum foil on a work surface and set 1 fish filet on each piece of foil. Arrange zucchini, squash, and onion around each filet and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle fish and vegetables with red chile flakes. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon oil and 1/2 tablespoon wine onto vegetables and fish.
• Arrange a few lemon slices on top of each filet and top with a thyme sprig. Wrap foil around fish and vegetables, leaving some air space within each packet, and seal very well. Set packets on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes. Carefully open 1 packet to confirm fish is just cooked through; if not, re-seal packet and return to oven to continue cooking until cooked through. Serve right away, opening packets at the table.

FISH MILANESE WITH SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Season the fish with salt and pepper. Put the flour, eggs and panko in separate shallow dishes. Dredge the fish in the flour, then dip in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then coat in the panko. Transfer to a plate.
• Make the dressing: Stir the mayonnaise, buttermilk, lemon juice, scallions and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Trim the ends of the zucchini and yellow squash and halve crosswise. Shave lengthwise into thin ribbons with a mandoline or vegetable peeler. Toss in a large bowl with the vinegar and vegetable oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish and fry, rotating the skillet occasionally, until the fish is browned around the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip and fry until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a rack set on a baking sheet and season with salt.
• Divide the fish and vegetables among plates. Top the fish with the dressing; sprinkle with the scallion greens. Serve with lemon wedges.

FISH FILLETS WITH TOMATOES, SQUASH, AND BASIL

Steps:

• Place four 14x12" sheets of parchment paper, or heavy-duty foil if grilling, on a work surface. Divide squash among parchment sheets, arranging on one side of sheet in thin layers. Sprinkle shallots and sliced basil over, dividing equally. Scatter tomato halves around squash. Drizzle each packet with 1 tablespoons wine and 1/2 tablespoon oil (add 1/2 tablespoon water to each if grilling). Season with salt and pepper. Place a fish fillet atop each portion. Season with salt and pepper; drizzle 1/2 tablespoon oil over each.
• Fold parchment over mixture and crimp edges tightly to form a sealed packet. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before continuing.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place packets in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Alternatively, build a medium fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Bake or grill fish until just cooked through (a toothpick poked through the parchment will slide through fish easily), about 10 minutes. Carefully cut open packets (steam will escape). Garnish with basil leaves.
