Subj : Nat'l Grilling Month - 3 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Mon Jul 31 2023 04:51:44 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Dirty Dave's Grilled Fish Steaks Categories: Seafood, Marinades, Citrus Yield: 4 Servings 2 lb Firm-fleshed fish such as - Marlin, Blackfish, Shark - or Swordfish; in steaks - about 1" (or more) thick MMMMM--------------------------MARINADE------------------------------- 1/4 c Olive oil 2 tb Lemon juice 1 tb Minced rosemary or dill MMMMM---------------------HORSERADISH BUTTER-------------------------- 1/4 c Butter 2 tb Drained, prepared horse - radish 1/8 ts (ea) cayenne & salt MMMMM--------------------HONEY-MUSTARD BUTTER------------------------- 1/4 c Butter 4 tb Dijon-style mustard 1/2 ts Honey MMMMM------------------------LEMON BUTTER----------------------------- 1/4 c Butter 1/4 ts (to 1/2 ts) grated lemon - zest 2 ts Lemon Juice 1/8 ts (ea) cayenne & salt MMMMM------------------------HERB BUTTER----------------------------- 1/4 c Butter 3 tb Chopped, mixed tarragon, - parsley and chives 1/4 ts Grated lemon zest 2 ts Lemon juice 1/8 ts (ea) cayenne & salt Make the marinade by whisking together the ingredients. Put the fish and marinade in a self-sealing plastic bag. Refrigerate for no more than 1/2 hour. Marinating too long will spoil the flavor and texture of fish. Drain the fish and pour the marinade into a small pan and heat at the side of the grill to brush on the fish while grilling. Oil the grill well or use a well-oiled, hinged, grilling basket. Fish cooks fairly quickly. Depending on thickness, it will need only between 4 and 15 minutes total and will probably have to be turned only once on the grill. Use a wide oiled spatula to turn it if done directly on the grill. The flesh near the center should almost flake and should be moist when tested with a fork. Baste with reserved marinade. Serve immediately with a flavoured butter as a garnish. And that's as good as I can do here in the Great American Outback 800 or so miles from the nearest seashore. The blackfish (tautog) is probably my favourite for this treatment. But, shark and swordfish are a lot more readily available.
