better late than never ... i love fish
1. when dining out, choose sushi/sashimi, etc. there are many good inexpensive prepared sushis around to have for lunch.
2. marinate fish (i like red snapper or tuna) in some olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and fresh dill for 20 minutes or so. saute in pan. serve. (if you are in a hurry you can skip the marinating part)
3. i can't quite remember the proportions for this one exactly, but i think the marinade is 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp dijon mustard, ginger (1 tsp or two) and garlic (a few cloves). again, 20 minutes marinate, then saute. works well with salmon.
4. buy prepared hoisin sauce or teriyaki sauce and use to saute fish.
5. i like scallops. here is an easy recipe - in a bowl mix about a cup of breadcrumbs, 1/4 to 1/2 cup grated parmesan or romano, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, powdered mustard. melt 1/2 cup of butter. layer scallops (a 1 lb bag or thereabouts) and breadcrumb mixture in greased casserole dish, then dump melted butter on top. bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
6. buy prepared salmon burgers at the local yuppie grocery. pan fry and serve.
7. those little frozen shrimps are good for adding to pasta or stir frys. (frozen scallops are good in stir fry too). thaw first. (thaws in about 20 minutes in a bowl of cold water in the sink)
8. put tinned tuna on a regular salad - i usually use spinach and red peppers as a base.
9. buy sashimi fish. cut and serve.
you can typically saute the fish (pan fry) in about 5 minutes or less. you cannot go wrong with olive oil, fresh herbs, and garlic. bbqing fish with same marinades is also good, but i don't have a bbq.
