Turbot Over Lentils With Spinach Recipes

TURBOT ON PUY LENTILS

Steps:

• For the lentils: Rinse lentils in a colander and drain. Peel carrot, shallot and garlic and chop everything finely. Rinse and trim scallions and cut into thin rings. Saute carrot, shallot and garlic in hot butter briefly, add lentils and pour in broth. Simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. As required, add a little broth. Then add the scallions and cream and simmer for another 10 minutes.
• For the fish: Rinse fish, pat dry and season with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet in hot oil fry until golden brown on each side for 2-3 minutes. In another pan fry bacon slowly until golden brown in hot butter with thyme branches.
• Season lentils with salt, vinegar and pepper and transfer to plates. Then place fish on top and drizzle with bacon butter and serve.

TURBOT OVER LENTILS WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Cook lentils according to package directions. These really beef up as they cook, so don't underestimate one cup of the dried lentils. However, feel free to make more--you can always save for another meal. Once cooked, drain lentils and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400F. Meanwhile, marinate fish in white wine and lemon juice from the lemon. When the oven is heated, cook fish--it will take about 15 minutes, depending on how thick the fish fillets are. Cook to your own taste.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the spinach and cook, stirring frequently, until just wilted. Add the tomatoes, lentils, basil and parsley and stir. Cook until warmed through, about one minute. Add salt and pepper to taste; you can also add lemon juice at this point.
• Serve by placing lentil mixture on a plate and putting fish on top.
