Herbed Bluefish Fillets
Ingredient
1/2 small yellow onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 tablespoon Dijon or spicy brown mustard
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon lime or lemon juice
Dash hot red pepper sauce, or to taste
Dash Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
1 1/2 pounds bluefish or mackerel fillets, cut into 4 serving-size pieces, or 4 tuna steaks (6 ounces each
In a shallow baking pan just large enough to hold the fish in a single layer, stir together all ingredients except the fish. Add the fish, rubbing the marinade lightly into the flesh. Cover & refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Will keep, refrigerated, for up to 5 hours. Preheat the broiler. With a slotted spatula, transfer the fillets to a lightly oiled broiler pan; set the marinade aside. Broil the bluefish or mackerel fillets, skin side down, 4 inches from heat for 5 to 6 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Baste once with the marinade but do not turn. Broil the tuna steaks 4 inches from the heat for 4 to 6 minutes; turn, brush with the marinade, & broil 4 to 6 minutes more or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serves 4.
