PAN-ROASTED FISH FILLETS WITH HERB BUTTER
A blast of heat in a cast-iron pan and a basting of golden butter does wonders for plain fish fillets. This life-changing method is adopted from a former chef and current fishmonger, Mark Usewicz of Mermaid's Garden in Brooklyn, who also teaches cooking classes in topics like "How to Cook Fish in a New York City Apartment." The cooking time is so short that the smell - which, if your fish is fresh and not funky, should not be overpowering - will dissipate quickly. And in the meantime, you have an easy dinner of tender fish with a toothsome crust, anointed with nutty, lemony brown butter and perfumed with herbs. You can use virtually any fish fillet, skin on or off, as long as it is not too thick. If the butter is browning too fast, reduce the heat and add a nut of cold butter to prevent scorching, or squeeze in the juice of half a lemon.

Steps:
- Pat fillets dry with a paper towel. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a heavy 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil. Place the fillets in the pan, skin side down (if applicable), laying them down away from your body. If fillets have skin, press down gently with a spatula for about 20 seconds to prevent curling.
- Lower heat to medium and let sizzle until fish is golden and caramelized around edges, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip fillets and add butter and thyme to pan. Tilt pan slightly to let the melted butter pool at one end. Use a spoon to baste the fish with the pooled butter. Continue basting until golden all over and cooked through, 45 to 90 seconds more, depending on the thickness of your fish. Serve immediately with chopped parsley (if using) and lemon wedges.

PAN ROASTED BLACK GROUPER WITH WILD AMERICAN SHRIMP, BLACK-EYED PEA CAKES, APPLEWOOD SMOKED BACON AND FRISEE SALAD AND SMOKED TOMATO COULIS
Steps:
- Pan Roasted Black Grouper: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Season the fillets with the salt and pepper. In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil over a high flame, not quite to smoking point. Add in the butter, then quickly, just as the butter begins to brown, place the fillets in the hot oil. Allow the fish to brown well before turning it over, about 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the fillets and brown the other side. Once the fish is browned, place the fillets on a parchment paper lined sheet pan. Finish baking the fish in the oven, about 3 to 4 more minutes.
- Wild American Shrimp: Using a very sharp knife, split the shrimp lengthwise, taking special care to keep the head attached. Rub the meaty part of the shrimp with half of the olive oil, then sprinkle the flesh with the seafood seasoning. Heat the remaining oil in a large nonstick saute pan until just about smoking. Add in the butter, then carefully place the shrimp, meat side down in the pan. Allow the shrimp to brown then gently turn them to their shell side. Lower the heat slightly and continue cooking for 3 to 5 more minutes, until shrimp is completely cooked.
- Black-Eyed Pea Cakes: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- With your hands or a potato masher, smash the black-eyed peas, leaving a few peas whole. Add green onion, red pepper, spices, and egg. Mix thoroughly. Add cheese and bread crumbs and mix well. Divide the mix into 6 (2 1/2-inch) balls. Flatten balls to 3-inches in diameter and about 1/2-inch thick. This may be done a day ahead of time, covered and stored in the refrigerator. Heat butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Lightly dust both sides of the cakes with seasoned flour and place them in the skillet to brown. Leave enough room between cakes to be able to flip them over. When cakes are brown on both sides, place them on a baking sheet and put them in the oven for 7 minutes, or until heated through.
- Frisee Salad: Wait until just before assembling the plates to mix the salad.
- Over a low heat, warm the olive oil and the shallot slightly. Remove from the heat and mix together all ingredients except for the frisee and the bacon. Gently toss the Frisee with the dressing mix and divide among the 6 plates. Sprinkle the salad with the bacon.
- Smoked Tomato Coulis: In a small stainless steel sauce pot, heat the olive oil over a low heat. Place the shallots, garlic, salt and cayenne pepper in the hot oil and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often to prevent browning. Add in the peeled and seeded smoked tomatoes and cook over a low heat for about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat and allow mixture to cool for about 10 to 15 minutes. Place the cooled mixture into the blender and puree until smooth. Stir in vinegar and hold warm until ready to serve.
- To assemble the entire dish before serving: Place the black-eyed pea cakes in the center of each plate. Arrange the frisee salad just behind the pea cake. Take 2 halves of the cooked shrimp and place them so that the head portions meet at the top of the frisee salad. Place the cooked grouper atop the pea cake and place a small pool of the smoked tomato coulis near the front of the dish.
