SIMPLY SEARED OPAH
I couldn't find a simple recipe for opah (also known as moonfish) so I just seared it and it was so good. The flavor of the fish can stand on its own.

COCONUT-POACHED FISH WITH BOK CHOY
This one pot, Thai-influenced dish couldn't be easier to assemble, and its beautiful presentation makes it look like you spent a lot longer on dinner than you actually did. The poaching liquid does double duty by gently cooking the fish and wilting the bok choy. If bok choy is unavailable, another sturdy green, like kale or Napa cabbage, can be substituted. Serve with steamed jasmine rice to soak up some of the fragrant coconut milk broth.

Steps:
- Season fish well with salt. In a large sauté pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallot, garlic, ginger and chile, and cook, stirring often until they become translucent, about 2 minutes. Season with salt.
- Add coconut milk, fish sauce and brown sugar, and whisk together until combined and sugar dissolves. Bring mixture to a gentle simmer. Add cod fillets and turn the heat down to low. Cover and cook until cod is just cooked through and opaque, about 6 to 8 minutes. Carefully remove the fish and plate in bowls.
- Add bok choy to the coconut milk broth and turn heat to medium-low. Cook bok choy until leaves are wilted and stems are tender, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Divide bok choy evenly alongside the fish and ladle the coconut milk broth over each portion. Top with cilantro, scallions and a good squeeze of lime, and serve with remaining wedges on the side. Garnish with flaky salt, if desired.

SEARED OPAH (MOONFISH) WITH VINE-RIPE TOMATO GARLIC BUTTER
It's my understanding that Opah isn't easy to come by, so I was thrilled when I found some. Then I discovered that there are not many recipes out on the internet, so recipes are also hard to come by. I found this one and we loved both the fish and the recipe. I also had to search for a recipe for the Tomato Concasse, so included it here for convenience. Just as a note, I didn't use nearly as much butter as the recipe calls for. From Chef Linda Yamada of the Beach House in Hawaii.

Steps:
- Make the Tomato Concasse: (The French word means to roughly chop).
- Remove the core of the tomato with the tip of a small knife.
- At the other end, lightly score (just break the skin) of the tomato by cutting an X.
- Plunge the tomatoes into a pot of rapidly boiling water for 10 seconds (blanch).
- Remove the tomatoes with a slotted spoon and place into a bowl of ice water or under cold running water to halt the cooking process (this process is called 'refreshing').
- The peel should now just slip off; if the tomatoes are not quite ripe, they may need to be blanched and refreshed again.
- Place the tomatoes on a cutting board with the core side down and cut in half.
- Remove the seeds with a teaspoon and discard.
- Roughly chop the tomatoes to the desired size.
- Gently cook the shallots and the tomatoes in butter without coloring them (this is called sweating) for 5 minutes and set aside until required.
- For the Fish:.
- Heat the saute pan on medium heat until hot.
- Add in oil; season both sides of fillets with salt and pepper.
- Sear on both sides until medium done, approximately 4 - 5 minutes total depending on thickness of fish.
- Remove from pan; add garlic; stir consistently.
- Add tomato concasse, lemon juice and white wine on medium heat; let reduce until most liquid is gone.
- On low heat, add in butter a little at a time.
- Remove from heat; add in chopped parsley and season.
