Spanish Mackerel With Almond Caper Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place mackerel on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle fillets with oil and juice from the lime and sprinkle with salt. Roast for 7 to 10 minutes, until done to taste.
• While the fillets roast, spread out almonds in a large skillet set over medium heat and toast until fragrant and lightly golden, about 3 minutes. Pour almonds onto a plate to cool.
• Add wine to the skillet and let reduce until syrupy, about 3 minutes. Whisk in butter until smooth, then stir in a pinch of salt, pepper and garlic and let heat for 20 seconds to warm the garlic. Remove from heat and stir in olives and almonds.
• Spoon olive sauce over fish, garnish with mint, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Lightly grease a baking dish.
• Rub both sides of each mackerel fillet with olive oil and place with the skin side down into the prepared baking dish. Season each fillet with the paprika, salt, and pepper. Top each fillet with two lemon slices.
• Bake the fillets under the broiler until the fish just begins to flake, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Rinse each of the fish steaks under fresh cold water, then pat them dry. Let the fish marinate in the rice wine for 5 to 10 minutes, turning the fish once halfway through.
• Preheat your broiler to the highest setting possible, or if you are grilling outdoors, make sure your coals are burning hot.
• Remove the fish from the marinade, and very lightly salt the flesh on both sides. Salt the surrounding skin a bit more generously. Place the fish on a rack set over a foil-lined tray, or use disposable foil broiling pans for easier cleanup. If you are broiling outdoors, you may wish to lightly oil the rack on which the fish will be laid. Broil the fish for 6 to 7 minutes, or until it is opaque and slightly browned around the edges. Flip the fish with a large metal spatula, and broil for 2 to 3 more minutes, until the fish is just cooked through.
• Cut the lemon into 4 wedges, and serve each piece of fish with one of them. The Japanese typically serve a small mound of grated radish to the side of the fish. Each person then dribbles some soy sauce over the radish and spread this mixture on the fish just before conveying it to the mouth. If you wish to follow suit, drain the grated radish of excess liquid before mounding it on the plates.

Steps:
