Seafood recipie ideas

[tuc biscuit]

Calling all gourmets! I've recently (2 months) started working as a chef, and the place I work has decided that it wants to become a fresh fish restaurant Now as well as the menu items, we (me and 2 other chefs) have to come up with 8-12 fish specials a day for starters and main. I know there are cook books and internet recipie sites, but I would prefer "real life" ideas and recipies. Then hopefully the customers will look like this--->

Thanks in advance

Pan Recipies...

Salmon with chives, sour cream and butter.

Melt the1/4 stick butter then add sour cream enough to get a slight thicknessto the butter, dubm in chives with that and whip it quick. Then layer it on the salmon fillet.

Shrimp with garlic, pesto and basil in olive oil.

Tuna steaks & crab pate.

Tuna steak cooked and then cut out the center and dumb in blue crab pate.

The pate is just blended up blue crab with whatever spices you like.

I like it with curry, thyme, and roma tomatoes.

Thanks for the replies. If not recipies then just good combinations would be helpful

Crab stuffed mushrooms is great, imo.

Salmon filet grilled and covered in a lemon glaze is good.

One of my favorites is shrimp grilled with a Caribbean Jerk Seasoning. Very tasty and kind of spicy.

Shrimp and grits is great(Southern delicacy)! You can mix in boiled shrimp or put lightly fried shrimp on top of the grits. Top it off with some cubed ham chunks, chopped green onion sprouts and whatever else you want to add.

El Torito used to have a dish that was jumbo shrimp wrapped in bacon, served over a bed of Spanish rice. That was pretty good.


...either that or fishsticks-n-tater tots.

what's monkfish? Is that squid?

We already do a tater tot platter, tater tot soup and yard of tater tots on a stick so that idea is a go. Plus already got a monkfish bacon and apple dish pn the main menu.
