Grilled Whole Bass With Toasted Paprika Orange Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Place paprika, reduced orange juice, vinegar and mustard in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Brush fish with olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in 2 medium saute pans over high heat. Saute each fish on one side until lightly golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn over and place in the oven and continue cooking for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and serve each person 1 whole fish drizzled with vinaigrette.
• Preheat oven 400 degrees F. Rub beets with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and wrap separately in aluminum foil. Place beets on a baking sheet and let roast for 1 hour or until tender. Remove from foil and let cool slightly. Peel and cut into 1-inch dice. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, tarragon, and honey and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the greens on a platter, top with beets, goat cheese and drizzle with lemon vinaigrette. Sprinkle with pine nuts.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Slice off the top and bottom of 2 oranges; stand each up on a cut end. Slice off the peel and white pith with a knife, following the curve of the fruit. Turn each on its side and slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, then quarter the rounds. Halve the remaining orange and squeeze the juice into a bowl. Stir in the olive oil, sliced oranges, jalapeno, olives, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; set aside.
• Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Season the fish with salt and pepper and transfer skin-side down to the grill. Cook, turning once, until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes; transfer to a plate. Grill the bread, turning once, until marked, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Divide the watercress among 4 plates. Top with the fish and any collected juices from the plate. Spoon the orange mixture over the fish. Rub both sides of the bread with the garlic; serve with the fish.

Steps:

• Place chiles, onion, garlic, mustard, vinegar and salt and pepper in a blender and blend until combined. With the motor running, slowly add the oil and blend until emulsified. Pour into a bowl and stir in the chopped basil.
• Heat grill to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of the fish with the oil and season each with 1 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper, including the cavity. Stuff the cavity of each fish with some of the basil. Grill each fish until slightly charred on 1 side, about 4 to 5 minutes. Using a heavy duty spatula, carefully turn the fish over, close the cover and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the grill and immediately drizzle each fish with 2 tablespoons of vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Preheat grill for high heat.
• In a small bowl, stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, lemon pepper, and sea salt. Sprinkle seasonings onto the fish.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the garlic and parsley. Remove from heat when the butter has melted, and set aside.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Grill fish for 7 minutes, then turn and drizzle with butter. Continue cooking for 7 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork. Drizzle with olive oil before serving.

Steps:

• Rinse fish with cool water and pat dry. Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Season the cavity with salt and pepper. Tuck thyme, rosemary and parsley sprigs in cavity of each fish. Add fennel fronds, basil leaves and lemon slices. Drizzle olive oil on both sides of fish, then place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Leave at room temperature. (May season and refrigerate fish up to 2 hours in advance. Bring to room temperature before cooking.) Heat oven to 450 degrees.
• Make the vinaigrette: Put shallot in a small serving bowl. Add vinegar and a good pinch of salt. Leave to steep 5 minutes, then whisk in olive oil. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper and spoon them into the olive oil mixture. Add basil and stir gently. Leave at room temperature.
• Place fish on top shelf of oven and roast, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes, until fish is firm when probed and flakes at the thickest part. Take from oven and let rest 5 minutes. To serve, use a small knife, soup spoon and spatula to remove top fillets. Pull spine away to reveal bottom fillets. Transfer fillets to a platter or individual plates. Spoon a little tomato vinaigrette over each portion and pass the rest at the table.
• Alternatively, if you are grilling the fish, prepare a bed of hot coals. Make sure the grill is cleaned with a wire brush and lightly oiled. Lay the fish directly on the grill and cook for 7 to 8 minutes. Do not attempt to turn fish until the skin has browned and crisped or it will stick. Carefully turn fish and cook for another 7 to 8 minutes, until fish is firm when probed and flakes at the thickest part. To serve, proceed as in Step 3.
