Striped Bass Salad with Summer Vegetables

Here is a fresh seafood salad recipe with ingredients that are typically American: striped bass, corn, tomatoes and a touch of spice. What makes this particular recipe is how to cook the fish: you poach in olive oil, which makes the fish juicy. You can also shrimp, lobster, perch, cod, ling, haddock, tilapia or other fish firm enough to use for this recipe (Evita, fatty fish such as mackerel or mackerel dark). Not over the long cooking time or the amount of oil in this concern: You can not filter and reuse the oil, and the stove is turned off for most of the cooking.

Preparation time: 20 minutes

Cooking time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Total time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • £ 1 fillet skinless striped bass
  • Salt
  • Olive oil, at least 2 cups
  • Juice of one lemon
  • The nuclei of the two ears of corn or 1 cup frozen
  • 2-3 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • Finely chopped jalapeno chili 1
  • Cilantro or parsley 3 T.
  • 3 spring onions, chopped
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation:

Rinse and dry the fish. Sprinkle salt over them and set aside.

Heat 2-3 cups of olive oil in a heavy saucepan over medium heat until a drop of water thrown into the water boils quickly. If you have a cooking thermometer, you want the oil is about 220 degrees. Turn off the heat.

Slide the fish in oil, then shake the pan to make sure that the pieces do not stay on the ground. Stir for a few seconds, then cover the pan and reserve. The fish cook slowly, as oil retains heat very well.

Let the oil cool enough to your hand on the outside of the pot and feel a slight warmth. This takes about 45 minutes to an hour. And remove fish carefully on a plate.

To the salad, pour a little oil poaching fish in a large skillet and get it hot. Reduce the heat to medium heat and add the corn, peppers, spring onions and garlic. Thoroughly cook, turning often, for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, put the chopped tomatoes, lime juice and cilantro in a large bowl. Flake the fish with your fingers and in the bowl.

Pour the contents of the pan into the large bowl, gently stir to blend and a little more olive oil, if desired. Grind some fresh black pepper over everything and serve.

Solo, is an excellent appetizer. Add bread or plain white rice and a main dish.
