anyone like fish? (Page 2)

If I remember correctly perch is a white fish with a nice texture. For me, I like to season up a white fish filet pretty well since they usually don't have a lot of strong flavor (not like beef anyway). I'd go with a moderate amount of salt and pepper and maybe a blended spice brand of seasoning. I've got some stuff at home that is really good but I can't remember the name. Lowry's Season Salt is always good! Or, you could pick up some of Emeril's Essence blends!

okay guys. Race report time,

Took the fillet, rubbed it in salt and lots of black pepper with a touch of garlic. Pan fried in olive oil 4min per side.

It was FAN-FRICKIN-TASTIC

Light and flakey with tons of flavor. Turned out WAY better then I expected it to. A heck of a lot easier then other stuff I've cooked too. Next time I go shopping, I am definatly picking up more.

Because of this thread, I ordered miso salmon at Cheesecake Factory for lunch today! The fish was great, but the rice and the sauce it came with could have been better. I took home most of the food.

Now I want a fatty slice of sea bass filet for dinner. Or a medium rare seared tuna on a bed of greens. Too yummy to function!

blackened tilapia is really good, its my speciality since tilapia is so cheap.

just get a pan nice and hot, dip the filet in melted butter, pat blackened fish seasoning on it, then drop it onto the pan for about 2 minutes on each side.

mmm....

It's just a pain to get sashimi grade tuna, though. These days, I just go to the local Japanese fushion place for take out.

i could never bring myself to eat sashimi. Rare steak....yes, raw fish...no way.

Your a$$ he could - Not everyone that Chuck Norris is mad at gets killed. Some get away. They are called astronauts.

>Rare steak....yes, raw fish...no way.

I feel about rare steak the way you do about sashimi. My bestfriend just loooves beef carpaccio and I can't be bribed to eat that stuff.

Pick fish: Perch, Walleye, Bass, (smaller fillets)
Pick flavour of Potato Chip (Salt and Vinegar work well, BBQ etc for a change)

-Place chips into large ziplock bag, with minimal air.
-Crush chips with rolling pin. The finer crushed the better.
-place 1 or 2 raw eggs in a bowl. Beat the eggs.
-dip fish fillets into egg
-put fish in ziplock bag
-SHAKE to cover

pan fry for 3-4 minutes per side
or deepfry for about 6-7 minutes

mmmmmm good

Go to fish market where they can do special cuts for you.
Get a salmon fillet butterfly cut.

Mix your favorite fish seasonings, and garnishes to form a stuffing per say.
Example:

2 finely chopped green onions, including the greens
4 chopped pieces of bacon
2-3 small sundried tomatoes sliced
1 finely chopped fresh basil leaf
4 chopped baby spinach leaves
1tbsp of salad dressing (Italian, or tomato/oregano etc)
lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste.

This should almost be a paste.

Lay salmon in baking pan.
Open the butterfly cut.
Spread paste out inside fillet.
Close fillet.

Brush top of closed fillet with more lemon juice, or salad dressing.

Bake @ 350 deg for approx 12 min. Until salmon flakes easy.

well i actually went grocery shopping again since i have money now. Picked up some more perch, and am going to try som mahi mahi steaks and some alaskan Cod. Now i just have to figure out what i'm going to do with them.

I love fish!  I usually buy salmon at the store.  It's soo good.  I love mahi mahi.  There's not many types of fish that I don't like- except for catfish.  I have a hard time eating it since they are garbage collectors.  But yeah- fish is an excellent source of protein.  It makes the perfect after training meal.

I hear fish makes your hair grow. Probably the omega 3 fatty acids. Better stick to cold water fish, though, to maximize the affect. Salmon, monkfish, cod, scrod, trout.
