Fish With Sage And Garlic Sauce Recipes

FISH WITH SAGE AND GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Separate and peel the garlic, and simmer in water til they are soft, about 20 minutes.
• Reserve several whole cloves, and let the rest simmer for 10 minutes more.
• Then push through a fine strainer, so you have about 1/4 cup of puree.
• Season the fish with salt and pepper and roll in flour, then saute fillets in the olive oil with the whole garlic cloves til just browned on high heat.
• Then place in oven to bake til firm.
• Meanwhile, heat the sage, broth, garlic puree and cream, and whisk until just thickened,~5 min.
• Pour the sauce over the fish a few minutes before it is done.
• Serve with a couple of spoonfuls of sauce over the fish.

SAGE-RUBBED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Mix first 4 ingredients; rub onto flesh side of salmon. Cut into 6 portions., In a large cast-iron skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add salmon, skin side down; cook 5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven; bake just until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.

HALIBUT WITH BROWN BUTTER, LEMON AND SAGE

Steps:

• Season fish on both sides with plenty of salt and pepper.
• Pour oil into a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast iron or nonstick) and set over medium-high heat. When oil is hot (but not smoking), swirl to evenly coat the pan, then add fish in a single layer. Let cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes, until first side is nicely browned. Adjust the heat as needed to produce a steady sizzle and prevent scorching.
• Flip and cook fish for about another 3 minutes, until just done. (To test for doneness, use a fork to gently probe the flesh: it should flake easily.) Transfer cooked fish to a warm platter or serving plates.
• Make the sauce: Place skillet back on the stove over medium-high heat. Add butter and sage leaves. Cook butter, swirling the pan, until foamy and just beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice.
• Spoon butter sauce and sage leaves over fish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and parsley. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges.
