fishnut 2,358 Posted October 23, 2016 So the wife is on a diet (finally) and she is eating her own meals for dinner.

louu 399 Posted October 23, 2016 I make a makeshift tinfoil tray, pour some good olive oil on it (not the cheap stuff, got a spend about 20 bucks on a small bottle of good stuff) and sprinkle on chef Pauls magic chef salmon seasoning. Throw it on the BBQ grill on the lowest heat till it's done. That's how I cook all of it, salmon, grouper, tilapia, flounder... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe 95 Posted October 23, 2016 1. Tilapia is gross, I used to love it and and after researching it, I'll never have it again lol. 2. No seafood from china. ...with this being said, nice piece of tuna steak coated with sesame oil lil salt n pepper toss on the grill, few min each side depending on thickness for a nice medium rare, lil sesame seeds on top during the last few min...delish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Patrick 638 Posted October 23, 2016 I'm a big fan of grilled tuna and swordfish. Blackened or a lemon pepper rub sometimes the cabelas general purpose seasoning. I don't like salmon (Extra) garlic shrimp. Just some fresh garlic and chili flake seared in some oil with shrimp thrown in after.

YankeeSC 1,204 Posted October 23, 2016 (Extra) garlic shrimp. Just some fresh garlic and chili flake seared in some oil with shrimp thrown in after. Made this yesterday When buying shrimp, look for wild caught from the gulf of Mexico, MUCH better flavor than farm raised! ShopRite usually has it. Try this shrimp recipe too, for New Orleans BBQ shrimp, one of my favs. You can find many variations, eat it over rice or grits. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/new-orleans-bbq-shrimp-recipe.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also don't eat anything other than US or Canada wild caught fish, and since im an animal hippie I don't eat certain species like Orange roughy and Chilean Sea bass. I do like tuna steak and cook it the same way lol. that is if I didn't eat it all raw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_stranger 13 Posted October 23, 2016 Tuna Cover both sides with white and black sesame seeds. Cook in cast iron. I prefer med. rare. Cover both sides with olive tapenade. Cook in cast iron. Cod/haddock Coat with butter or olive oil. Coat both sides with panko and sprinkle with parm/romano grated cheese. Bake 425 about 15-20 minutes. Rough cut tomatoes and olives, add some capers in a large pan. When that gets hot add fish and cover. Cook until done, Salmon Glaze of orange or apricot marmalade and soy sauce. Grill Swedish style bake salmon (skin down) on rough sea salt 400 degrees until done sauce - 1/2 cup mayo, 1/2 cup sour cream, dill and red caviar. Foes great with some boiled potatoes and dill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T Bill 649 Posted October 23, 2016 In a "past life", I used to be a buyer for a wholesaler and travel into the NYC Fulton Fish Market twice a week and purchase all kinds of seafood. Some stories I could tell you would turn your stomach. Needless to say any seafood from SE Asia is a NO-NO. Along with farm raised Tilapia from South America. Stay away from Tiger Shrimp. Looks black when raw. Gulf Shrimp White/Pink is best but hard to get a hold of. There are some farm raised gulf shrimp that is good. Clams from LI Sound are good if you know the brand. Avoid FL and Maine clams, yuch. Lobster from Maine, always hard shell, avoid the soft shell, they are molting, your buying seawater. Best lobster tail South African Rock Lobster. For a simple treat deep water pollack from Canadian Maritimes, looks dark pink, taste is great. Also, expensive, but Arctic Char, like a cross between salmon and trout. Believe it or not, farmed raised Louisiana catfish is very good, esp cajun style. NYC has some of the finest smoked fish around, ACME is the brand name here. Too many types of flounder to describe. Most grocery store types are not that good. Salmon, same here, all kinds, got to know your types I still go in occasionally for some things but for the most part I given up on seafood, too many cutting corners. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slab Sides 20 Posted October 23, 2016 salmon papillote, grilled cajun shrimp, beer battered Jersey fluke, bluefish tacos, spanish style halibut (poached in a sofrito, bell pepper and tomato sauce served over rice), chioppino or any other stew, mussels and clams with fennel and chorizo.....

Displaced Texan 11,751 Posted October 23, 2016 Here is a base version of my family's gumbo recipe. You can add seafood if you like, I add blue crab claws, crawfish tails, oysters too. The roux is foolproof...done in the oven. I do not put okra in a roux gumbo, but this recipe is tasty either with it without it. The roux recipe I was telling you about came from a cook book called "Houston Chefs Table" it reads as follows: 3/4 cup of flour 1 cup of butter Mix the flour with the oil in a heavy skillet place in a 325 degree oven and cook until brown without stirring. (30-45 minutes) The rest of the ingridients are: 1 3 pound chicken 4 sprigs fresh thyme 3 bay leaves 2 pounds shrimp (save shells for stock) 3 tablespoons of black peppercorns 1/2 chopped yellow onion 1/4 cup xhopped green bell peppers 2 garlic cloves minced 1 cup chopped celery 1 cup sliced fresh okra 1 tablespoon creole seasoning 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon dried dried basil tabasco sauce to taste 1 1/ cups smoked sausage 1 cup chopped canned tomatoes with juice salt & pepper 1 pund raw jasmine rice cooked and reserved for servin 1 cup chopped scallions Place the chicken in a pot and cover with water.add the thyme sprigs,bay leaves,,shrimp shells, clam juice, peppercorns. cook over low heat for 45 minutes. Remove chicken and allow to cool. Strain the stock thru a fine-mesh strainer and return to stove. Reduce stock by 1/2. Once the chicken has cooled completely remove the skin and debone . Add the onion, bellpeppers, garlic and celery saute the vegetables in the roux until tender add the okra and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the gumbo seasoning thyme, basil and pepper. Add tabasco to taste. Add the sausage, shrimp, chicken, and tomatoes. Simmer 1 hour or until thickened, Adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and tabasco sauce.. Serve over the rice with chopped scallions. This serves 4 By NO means low calorie, but damn tasty. I also have a shrimp and grits recipe that is just amazing. Stolen from Food Network, I modify it a little to suit my taste. For those of you that don't know what Tasso is, it is a type of ham, I use panchetta, because Tasso is hard to get up here.

Displaced Texan 11,751 Posted October 23, 2016 An easy and fun recipe for salmon.... Place your salmon steaks on aluminum foil, season with a pat of butter, a little fresh dill and lemon. Wrap it water tight in the foil. Place it on the top rack of your dishwasher, and run a cycle (without dishes, OR detergent, of course!!). The result is moist, and tender salmon. Perfectly done. It is fun to see the reactions of your dinner guests as you retrieve the main course from the dishwasher. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
