50Best Fish Recipes from around the globe! Most of these easy fish recipescan be made in under 30 minutes, perfect for weeknight dinners! Whether you are looking for halibut, salmon, seabass, cod, or seafood recipes, you’ll find lots to choose from here!( Summer Corn Chowder)
Ingredients
UnitsScale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup diced white or yellow onion (or sub 1 large shallot)
- 8 ounces new potatoes (new crop yellow potatoes, red, yukon, any with thin skin) – cut into small dice (no bigger than 1/2 inch thick- the smaller you cut them, the faster they will cook)
- 1 ear of fresh corn- kernels sliced off ( or 1 1/2 cups frozen)
- 1 cup stock ( veggie, chicken or fish) or sub water- or use corn stock (see notes)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Pepper to taste
- 1/8 cup fresh basil leaves – cut into ribbons or torn
- Optional 2–3 tablespoons half and half
- 8 ounces fish- halibut, sea bass, wild Alaskan cod, haddock, salmon, black cod, shrimp, scallops
- olive oil for searing
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until fragrant about 3 minutes. Add potatoes and corn. Saute 2- 3 minutes, add water or stock, salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Cover, turn the heat down to low and simmer 10 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender.
- While the potatoes are simmering, sear the fish. Heat oil in another skillet. Season fish with salt and pepper and sear each side over medium-high heat. Lower heat and cook to your desired doneness. Set aside.
- When the potatoes are fork-tender, uncover and cook off a little of the liquid. At this point, you could add a few tablespoons half and half or soy milk for a little extra creaminess (cook it for a minute or two to thicken) or simply leave it out.
- Stir in half of the basil. Taste, adjust salt.
- Right before serving, stir in the remaining basil, saving a little for the top. Dish up the sweet corn”chowder” and top with the seared fish and basil.
