Suggestions for cooking fish
- Most important, do not overcook. Fish will continue cooking on its way to the table.
- Use bottled cooking sauces – teriyaki, dill, pesto.
- Add fish or shellfish to your favorite pasta sauce – marinara, Alfredo, pesto, clam sauce
- Instead of chicken, use fish or shellfish with packaged stir-fry or fajita mixes.
- Use bottled salsa, either fruit or vegetable based, as an accompaniment.
- Pair stronger fish such as trout with sautéed tomatoes. You can also add mushrooms and/or peppers and/or onions.
- Splash fish with lemon juice, top with a thin layer of mayonnaise, and sprinkle with your favorite herbs.
- Marinate fish in salad dressing. Italian and Dijon vinaigrette are especially good.
- Use leftover fish in salads.
- If you are concerned about fish odors, use cooking bags.
- Serve fish on a bed of arugula or other greens.
- Use a variety of herbs – dill, marjoram, tarragon, chives, capers – to add flavor.
