Turbot With Morille Pasta Recipes

TURBOT WITH BROWN BUTTER AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the turbot on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a few tablespoons of canola oil in a large saute pan over high heat. When you see a wisp of smoke, add the fillets to the pan (do not overcrowd the pan to achieve a proper sear, so cook in batches if you have to). Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of the butter per fillet to the pan. Cook the turbot on both sides until lightly golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes total. Remove to a plate.
• Deglaze the pan with the white wine over medium-high heat and let cook all the way down to a dry pan. Add the remaining butter to the saute pan and cook until slightly golden brown. Add the capers and lemon juice, and then add the fish back to the pan. Baste the fish with some of the sauce to warm. Remove from heat, add the tarragon and season with salt and pepper if necessary.
• Put each fillet on a plate and spoon the sauce over the fish. Garnish with the lemon zest and a sprig of tarragon.

TURBOT WITH LIME AND GREEN GINGER

Steps:

• Pat the fillets of turbot dry with paper towels. Pare the lime in strips, without the pith, and blanch the peel. Remove the pith from the rest of the lime and cut the fruit into sections. Finely shred the blanched peel.
• Put the turbot fillets on a buttered dish, arrange the lime sections on top, sprinkle the grated ginger over all and add the shredded peel. Season with salt and pepper and add the wine. Meanwhile preheat oven to 160 degrees. Bring the mixture to boil on top of the stove.
• Transfer the mixture to the oven, cover with foil and leave until done (about 10 to 15 minutes). Remove the fillets and reduce the juices on top of the stove to form the sauce.
