Herb Baked Fish With Tartar Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse oyster crackers into crumbs, then transfer to a large bowl. Add the cornichons, capers, scallions and tarragon to the food processor and pulse into small pieces. Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard and pepper and pulse to combine.
• Remove 1/2 cup tartar sauce to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate. Pour the remaining tartar sauce into the bowl with the cracker crumbs and gently fold together with the egg and crabmeat. Use a 1/4-cup measure to form the mixture 16 crabcakes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and, working in batches, cook the crabcakes until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Serve with a dollop of the reserved tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475, with racks in top and bottom third. Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil; set aside.
• Place egg in a wide shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, combine panko, Old Bay, and oil. Dip tilapia into egg, shaking off excess, then into panko mixture, pressing to adhere. Place on prepared baking sheets.
• Bake until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating sheets from top to bottom halfway through. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, parsley, mustard, lemon juice, and horseradish; season with salt and pepper. Serve fish sticks with sauce and lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the upper part. In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, capers, pickles, herbs and Worcestershire sauce. Using a Microplane, finely grate the garlic into the bowl, then grate in the zest of the lemon. (Hold onto the lemon; you'll use the juice later.) Stir to combine and season the tartar sauce to taste with salt and lots of pepper.
• In a small bowl, stir together the panko and olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Pat the fish dry on all sides and season lightly all over with salt and pepper. Transfer to a lightly greased or foil-lined sheet pan. Coat the top with a thin layer of the tartar sauce (a scant tablespoon per fillet). Sprinkle the panko evenly on top (about 2 tablespoons per fillet), pressing gently to adhere.
• Bake the fish on the top rack until almost cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes for fillets between ½- and ¾-inch-thick (though you should check earlier, if using a thinner fish). An instant-read thermometer should read somewhere between 125 and 130 degrees when inserted into the thickest part of the fish.
• Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon juice from the lemon to the tartar sauce and cut the remaining lemon into 4 wedges for serving.
• When the fish is nearly cooked through, switch the oven to broil. Broil the fish on the top rack until the bread crumbs are golden and the fish flakes easily and registers 140 degrees in the thickest part, 2 to 3 minutes. Eat with a spoonful of tartar sauce, more black pepper and a squeeze of lemon. (Any extra tartar sauce will keep for up to a week in the fridge.)

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients for the tartar sauce and chill.
• Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
• Grease a large sheet of aluminum foil with plenty of soft butter.
• Place the fish on top, dot with butter, season and sprinkle with wine and lemon juice on top.
• Scatter the herbs over and wrap the fish in the foil.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the fish can be easily flaked with a fork.
• Serve with the tartar sauce and chips, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°F. Line a baking sheet with a brown paper bag.
• Rinse the catfish and pat dry. Slice each fillet lengthwise into 3 long strips and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Combine the buttermilk, egg, and hot sauce in a shallow bowl and stir to mix. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, and cayenne, season with salt and black pepper, and stir to mix.
• Pour canola oil into a large skillet about 1/4 inch deep and place over medium-high heat until sizzling hot (see Know-how, page 100).
• Dip each piece of fish in the buttermilk mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture to evenly coat both sides, shaking off any excess flour. Without overcrowding the skillet-you may need to fry in batches-place the fish in the hot oil and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning only once, until golden brown and crispy. If the fish is browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium.
• Remove the fish from the skillet and drain on the lined baking sheet. Place the pan in the oven to keep warm while you fry the remaining fish, adding more oil to the skillet if needed. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired, and serve hot with Herb Tartar Sauce, raw onion, and lemon wedges to squeeze over the fish.
• Make it a party with Squash Puppies (page 65), Creamy Potato Salad (page 266), and Spring Coleslaw with Fresh Herbs and Light Honey Citrus Vinaigrette (page 258).

Steps:

• Set oven to 475°F (set oven rack to second-lowest position, or the middle rack).
• In a bowl mix together the mayo, sweet relish, garlic powder and lemon juice; whisk to blend, and season with salt and pepper, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Process the cornflakes with a pinch of seasoning salt and black pepper on a processor until coarse crumbs form (leave the crumbs coarse, don't grind them to a fine texture) transfer the crumbs to a bowl and mix in lemon peel.
• In a small bowl mix together the melted butter with about 2-3 tablespoon fresh lemon juice until well combined.
• Season the fish with black pepper (and more salt if desired) then brush the fish with the lemon butter to coat on all sides.
• Dip the fish into the cornflake mixture coating completely.
• Arrange the fish on a lightly greased baking sheet.
• Sprinkle with any remaining cornflake mixture.
• Bake fish for about 7-10 minutes (depending on the size of the fish strips).
• Serve with the sauce.

Steps:

• Stir together tartar sauce, 2 tablespoons green onions, 2 teaspoons thyme, and capers in small bowl.
• Place white bread in food processor; using on/off turns, process until very coarse crumbs form. Transfer breadcrumbs to large bowl. Using on/off turns, finely chop celery; add to bowl with breadcrumbs. Using on/off turns, coarsely puree fish; add to bowl. Add remaining 1/2 cup chopped green onions, 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, egg, salt, and ground black pepper to bowl. Mix gently but thoroughly. Transfer fish mixture to work surface and shape into four 1/2-inch-thick cakes.
• Heat olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add fish cakes and cook until brown on bottom, about 5 minutes. Using large spatula, carefully turn fish cakes over and cook until second sides are brown and centers are opaque, about 5 minutes longer. Divide fish cakes among 4 plates and garnish with tartar sauce and lemon wedges.
