Cooking Fish

Welcome to the forum Marlena:

That recipe sounds good. Chopped tomato and chives and wine.

I have been eating eggplants (Ischeban type) from the garden and grilling them.

Just peel and slice them longways into 1/4" thick Steaks. Spread some Olive Oil onto them and grill them on each side for about 10 min on low heat. They do tend to stick to my old grill though.

I also grill zucchini this way. So next time I am grilling I'll try to grill some fish again.

I like to add butter and lemon juice to the mix.

I have lots of Celebrity Tomatoes in the garden this summer. I picked three buckets of them yesterday.

I also have some green pepper plants and yellow summer squash.

All these vegetables go well with fish.


[quote=Marlena46219;301436]Hi all. I just joined fishin.com. I just moved to the Anderson area from Indy and hoping to find some outdoors folks to fish with.

Here is a nice impromptu panfish recipe that is a nice alternative to frying or grilling -- fillets steamed in foil on the grill. Fresh bluegills, a little white wine and chicken broth poured over, snip some fresh chives and a finely chopped roma tomato. Steam in a foil packet on the grill. Oh, my gosh![/quote]

There is a flat rack with holes in it you can buy for grilling veggies and things. It's sometimes made if teflon -- just not enough holes for the veggies to fall through. For veggies, I marinate them in Italian or ranch dressing for an hour or so before grill time. To keep my eggplant from falling apart I leave the skin on. Anyway, the grilled veggies, and some Ranch potatoes, and fish on the grill are all outside. I take potatoes and bake them in the microwave. Slice or dice, place in foil, cover with Ranch and some butter, garlic, etc. Wrap in foil and let meld on the grill. For cajun spice for catfish, I use the cajun dry rub recipe out of the Joy of Cooking. Just coat fillets with oil or Pam before covering with seasoning. Oh, yeah, those green tomatoes are good sliced and grilled also.

Fellas, fellas, fellas...

What a guy needs to do (if he is in the indianapolis area) is make a trip down to Wanamaker for the Wheatley's Friday night fish fry.

Now that is some GOOOOD fish and you don't even have to mess with the grease!
