Marinated Fish

Admin : March 21, 2013 12:27 PM : seafood recipes

Serves 2-4

Salad: Lovage & Salmon

Ingredients:

2 salmon fillets, about 2 pounds total, skin on
3 Tbsp coarse sea salt
3/4 cup mild extra virgin olive oil
Juice from 1 lemon
1 large bunch (about 1/2 cup) mix of chopped, fresh chervil, chives and dill

Directions:

1. Carefully inspect fillets for any leftover bones. Tweezers make a great tool at removing the small fragments. Sprinkle both sides of the fillets with the salt. Put the fillets together to form a fish, skin sides out. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 12 hours, turning once about mid-way through.

2. Scrape off salt with spatula and dry fish with paper towels. Rinse in cold water and taste-test for saltiness. If it is too salty, soak in fresh water until saltiness is to your liking.

3. Mix together the oil, lemon juice and herbs. Pour into 1 or 2 large dishes, depending on the size of your fillets and dishes. Lay the fillets, flesh side down, on the marinade and refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap, for at least 3 hours (up to several hours).

4. Before serving, cut on the diagonal across the grain. Serve with your favorite Malibu Gourmet Foods sauce.
