How to cook deliciously - Broiled Bluefish with Red Onion and Citrus Dressing
1. Stage
In a small bowl, combine the oil, grapefruit juice, lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1 tablespoon of the chives.
2. Stage
Put the fish, skin-side down, in a shallow glass dish or stainless-steel pan. Scatter the onion over the fish. Pour half of the citrus dressing over the top; let marinate for about 15 minutes.
3. Stage
Heat the broiler. Put the fish, skin-side down, on a broiler pan or baking sheet. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Top with the onion. Broil the fish, about 6 inches from the heat if possible, until just done, about 5 minutes for 3/4-inch-thick fillets.
4. Stage
Pour the remaining dressing over the hot fish and sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of the chives.
5. Stage
Fish Alternatives: Any rich, full-flavored fish fillets would benefit from the acidity in the citrus dressing. Try mackerel, shad, kingfish or porgy.
6. Stage
Wine Recommendation: Just as the citrus here flatters the fish, a light white wine with lots of acidity will balance its oiliness while matching the grapefruit and lime flavors. Try a vinho verde from Portugal or a sauvignon blanc from South Africa.
