Make fish recipes and seafood recipes quick and easy. Ready to eat in 10-15 minutes.
Fish recipes and seafood recipes are simple when you follow a few rules. The first thing to consider when cooking fish is time. Most fish takes only 2-4 minutes per side, turning once on a grill or in a pan and about 15 minutes in the oven in an uncovered dish. The second thing to consider is temperature. Medium heat is fine because overcooked or burned fish is terrible. Some seafood such as Ahi tuna a.k.a. yellow fin tuna is very time and temperature sensitive. In fact many people prefer it a little bit rare in the center like a steak. Scallops and shrimp are also very sensitive and will get tough if cooked to long, so pay attention to your watch or use a timer. The third thing is olive oil or butter. This prevents your fish from sticking to the pan and helps the ingredients stick to the fish. When it comes to buying fish there are differences of opinion on fresh vs. frozen. Let's get the facts straight. Unless you live by the body of water that the fish came from, it's not fresh. There is nothing wrong with flash frozen, cryovac sealed fish. In fact it is the wave of the future. You will even notice that grocery stores and markets have signs in the showcase that read previously frozen. They thaw it and try to pass it off as fresh because most people don't read that little detail on the sign. I believe that many stores will be educating you in the future that flash frozen, cryovac sealed fish is the healthy way to shop. I wish they would do it now but remember where you heard it first. Are you ready to cook some fish? Let's get to the fish recipes.
