Shad And Shad Roe With Lemon Shallot Butter Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Place the fillets and the roe in a flat dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the milk, coating the fillets and the roe.
• Dredge the fish and the roe in the flour and remove the excess.
• Heat the corn oil in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the fillets skin side up and the roe in one layer. Cook the fillets and the roe over medium-high heat until crisp and brown, about four minutes, basting occasionally. Turn and cook for 2 minutes. Transfer to a warm platter and keep warm. If the pan is not large enough, cook in two segments.
• Discard the cooking oil and wipe out the skillet. Add the olive oil and the butter. Add the zucchini and tomatoes, salt and pepper to taste. Cook over high heat about 2 minutes, shaking and tossing the skillet so that the zucchini and tomatoes cook evenly. Add the shallots and garlic. Cook about a minute more, shaking the skillet. Pour this mixture over the fish, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut the shad fillets in half crosswise. Season the fillets and roe with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in each of two nonstick skillets and add the fillets skin side down in one pan. In the other pan add the roe and cook both over medium heat for 3 minutes, shaking the pans. Then turn the fillets and roe and cook for 3 minutes more. (It is a good idea to cover the pan with the roe while cooking to prevent splattering.)
• Remove the fish with a slotted spatula to a warm serving plate or platter. Separate each pair of roe lengthwise. Place a half on top of each piece of shad.
• In one of the skillets, add the butter and shallots. Cook and stir until wilted.
• Add the lemon juice and the parsley. Cook briefly while stirring, and then pour the mixture over the fish and serve.

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, combine flour, salt, and pepper and dredge fish in seasoned flour. In a saute pan over medium heat, heat oil until hot. Add fish to pan and cook until well browned on both sides. Remove fish and blot on paper. Return saute pan to heat. Add butter, let melt, and cook until brown. Add lemon juice, allow to sizzle, and add chopped parsley. Plate fish and drizzle lemon butter over top. Serve with asparagus.;

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet. While foaming is subsiding, lightly dredge roe in flour and shake off excess. Add roe and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Turn over, and brown on the other side. Remove the roe to a plate. If necessary add more butter to the skillet. Add ginger and saute for a moment. Add lemon juice and remove from heat; season with salt and pepper, add parsley or chives and spoon over shad. Serve with lemon or lime wedges.

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the shad roe. Put the roe in one layer in a skillet and add one-half cup milk, water to barely cover, bay leaf, parsley sprigs, salt and pepper.
• Bring to a boil and cover. Let simmer about three minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Heat two tablespoons butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. When blended and smooth, add the remaining half-cup of milk and three-quarters cup of the cooking liquid from the roe. Stir in the cream and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add nutmeg and cayenne pepper. Strain sauce through a sieve, pushing to extract all liquid from any solids. Reheat sauce.
• Heat remaining tablespoon of butter in a skillet and add mushrooms and lemon juice. Cook briefly, stirring, until mushrooms are wilted and lightly browned. Add shallots and stir. Add this mixture to the sauce.
• Transfer the drained roe to a serving dish. Pour the mushroom sauce over them and serve.

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Place bacon in a medium skillet, and cook over high heat until bacon is golden and just crisp. Remove 2 tablespoons bacon, and drain on a paper towel-lined plate; set aside. Continue cooking the remaining bacon until very crisp but not blackened. Transfer to a fine sieve; discard bacon fat. Transfer crisp bacon to the jar of a blender.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring chicken stock to a boil over high heat. Add butter, piece by piece, whisking constantly until incorporated. Add the chicken-stock mixture to the blender, and blend on high speed until bacon is pureed. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside in a warm place until ready to serve.
• Cook the shad roe: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a sharp knife, trim shad roe, and divide into 2 pieces, being careful not to tear the membrane. Pour flour into a shallow bowl, and season with salt and pepper; dust pieces lightly with the flour.
• In a medium nonstick ovenproof saute pan, heat grapeseed oil over medium heat. Add shad roe, and cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, and transfer the saute pan to the oven until roe is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from saute pan, and set aside while preparing salad.
• Make the salad: In a large bowl, combine vinegar, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Whisk to combine. Slowly add olive oil, whisking constantly, until combined. Add frisee and the reserved bacon; toss to combine.
• To serve: Slice the shad roe crosswise on the bias into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Divide among four plates. Spoon the bacon sauce over, and serve immediately with the frisee salad on the side.

Steps:

• Pat the roe dry with paper towels and dredge them lightly with flour.
• Heat the oil and one tablespoon butter in a large skillet and brown the roe on both sides. Cover the pan and continue cooking for a further five to eight minutes, or until the roe are firm when pressed with your finger. Remove them to a heated platter and keep them warm.
• Wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Add the remaining butter and cook over medium heat, stirring, until it turns light brown. Add the capers and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and pour the sauce over the roe. Garnish with lemon and parsley and serve.
