Roast Prosciutto Wrapped Fish Recipes

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED COD WITH ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C/375F.
• Season the fish with salt and pepper, then gently wrap tightly each cod fillet with a slice of prosciutto. Brush each fillet with a little olive oil then place on a baking tray.
• In a bowl, mix together the tomatoes with 1 tbsp of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, oregano and thyme. Season with salt and pepper and gently mix until tomatoes are well coated.
• Place the tomatoes on the tray, pouring over them any leftover dressing.
• Bake in the oven in the middle shelf for 10-15 minutes or until the fish is opaque and cooked through (it should flake easily).
• Remove the fish from the oven and set aside on a warm plate. Move the tray on the top shelf and continue to cook the tomatoes for a further 4-5 min.
• Remove from the oven, arrange the fish back in the tray and sprinkle with few basil leaves (optional).
• Serve to the table family-style directly from the tray.

PROSCIUTTO ROASTED BASS WITH AUTUMN VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• For the vegetables, place the butternut squash, potatoes, parsnips, and carrots on a sheet pan and drizzle with 1/3 cup olive oil. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and toss together. Spread out in a single layer and roast for 30 minutes, turning once during cooking. After 30 minutes, toss with the garlic and roast for another 10 minutes, until all the vegetables are tender and starting to brown.
• Meanwhile, line another sheet pan with aluminum foil, and place a baking rack on top of the foil. Brush the fish fillets on both sides with olive oil and season them liberally with salt and pepper. Wrap each fillet with a slice of prosciutto to form a wide band around the center of the fillet, overlapping the ends on the skin side. Arrange the fillets on the rack with the prosciutto seam side down and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, until barely cooked.
• While the vegetables and fish are roasting, melt the butter over medium heat in a medium-size saute pan. Add the rosemary sprigs and cook over low heat until the rosemary leaves are crisp and the butter begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Discard the rosemary, stir in the lemon juice, and set aside.
• To serve, place the fish on a platter or individual plates, spoon the rosemary butter on top, and surround with the vegetables. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve hot.

COD BAKED WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick liner or aluminum foil.
• Brush cod fillets with butter, and season with salt and pepper. Wrap each in a slice or two of prosciutto, leaving ends of fillets unwrapped. (If slices tear or are narrow, more than two may be used to wrap each fillet.) Brush with butter again, and place on baking sheet.
• Bake fish until firm and white at unwrapped ends, 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully remove from baking sheet, and, if desired, place each fillet on a bed of lentils.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED FISH WITH LEMON-CAPER BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• In a small bowl, mash together the butter, capers, lemon zest, lemon juice and garlic until combined.
• Pat fish dry with paper towels and season with pepper. Spread butter mixture over top of fillets. Slightly overlap two pieces of prosciutto on work surface. Lay fish butter side down in center of prosciutto, then fold the prosciutto over the fish. Repeat for all fillets.
• Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet (either non-stick or well-seasoned cast iron) over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add prosciutto-wrapped fillets, seam side down/butter side up) and brown for 1-2 minutes per side.
• Transfer skillet to oven and bake until fish (not covered by prosciutto) flakes when gently pressed, about 8 minutes.
• Spoon any pan juices over fillets when serving.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED COD

Steps:

• Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Wrap 1 wide or 2 thin slices of prosciutto around each piece of cod. Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat it over a medium-high heat. Add the fish fillets and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the prosciutto is crisp and the fish is cooked through. Serve.

PAN-ROASTED HALIBUT WITH PROSCIUTTO, LEMON, WHITE WINE, AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the flour on a deep plate or in a shallow bowl and season well with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish in the flour. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon oil and the butter and get the skillet hot. Add the fillets and cook until browned on 1 side, 2 to 3 minutes. At the same time, add the prosciutto and cook, stirring, to brown. Then flip the fish, put the skillet in the oven, and roast until the fish is just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the fish to 2 serving plates. Dump the prosciutto out onto paper towels to drain. Put the skillet back over medium heat. Add another tablespoon olive oil, the white wine, lemon juice, capers, the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the parsley and bring to a boil; boil until reduced and thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the fish, top with the prosciutto, and serve immediately.

PROSCIUTTO & PESTO FISH GRATIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Season the fish all over, then wrap each fillet in a slice of ham. Put into a large baking dish. Dot the crème fraîche between the fillets and over the exposed ends of the fish. Dot the pesto around the fish, too. Scatter with the cheese.
• Bake the fish for 15-20 mins, adding the pine nuts halfway through, until the crème fraîche has made a sauce around the fish, and the cheese and ham are turning golden. Serve with plenty of crusty bread to mop up the sauce.

SUPER QUICK PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED FISH

Steps:

• Grind pepper over fish and wrap each piece in 2 slices of prosciutto.
• Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat to medium-high heat. Add fish fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until prosciutto is crisping and fish is starting to brown. You may need to turn the heat down to medium after a few minutes. Note: adjust cooking time if using another type of fish that is thicker than tilapia.

ROASTED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED FISH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a small food processor, combine herbs with pine nuts, enough olive oil to make a thick paste, and salt and pepper. (Alternatively, chop everything fine and combine in a bowl.).
• Season fillets with salt and pepper. Lay two slices of prosciutto on a board, slightly overlapping like fish scales. Smear prosciutto with a layer of herb mixture, then lay fish in center and wrap it up.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes; add butter. When foam subsides, cook fish for a minute on each side, then roast until tender, 5 to 10 minutes depending on thickness. Fillets are done when a thin-bladed knife will pass through their thickest point with little resistance.
