For all you food folks...what is your favorite fish/seafood and how do you prepare it and cook it?

I actually made a salmon a few weeks ago that I enjoyed and I normally do not like salmon.

I did it on a cedar plank on the grill.
Brushed it with dijon mustard, a sprinkle of brown sugar and then some crushed ginger snaps. Really tasty.

I am pretty sure I put a picture of it on the food porn thread.

Sashimi grade tuna, rubbed in crushed peppercorns and seared quickly on each side over a very hot fire!

Cut a slice of tuna...wave it in the air over a cold skillet...pop it in yo mouth!

Iron chef has an orange ginger suace that is divine on baked salmon.
Another is to place some butter on cod, then sprinkle a mixture of crunched up stouffers stuffing (seasoned) with grated parmesan cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.

I agree Jan!! Hi Mr. B!!! So happy to see you posting!!!!! :D
I always put a salmon filet on foil, squeeze fresh lemon juice on it and sprinkle with salt, pepper and dill. Fold up foil and bake for 20 min. Moist and delicious...

Lobster (north atlantic) - baked stuffed, fra diavolo, salad - just about any way.

Dolphin fish (mahi mahi) - marinate in zesty italian dressing and grill. Yummy!

Most favorite is having it at restaurants so I don't have "fish smell" in my house.
I marinate salmon in Very Teriyaki Sauce or Island Teriyaki Sauce from Trader Joes. Then cook it on the grill.

I love so many fish. My top 10 are tuna, mahi mahi, cod, haddock, shrimp, clams, salmon, swordfish, striped bass, flounder. No particular order.

What kind of fish are you thinking about cooking? I'm sure I have a recipe for it!

Since we're 10 minutes away from the Gloucester Fishermen fish is a staple in this house. A rare pepper crusted tuna with a lemon/butter/caper sauce is one favorite. Another is wild salmon rubbed with a mix of brown sugar and cajun spice or the Potlatch Salmon Seasoning from Williams-Sonoma grilled on a cedar plank. A squeeze of fresh lemon over that is delish. Lobster is about half the price that it was last summer at this time so lately we've been enjoying that. Our favorite local joint serves a lobster dinner...1 1/2 pounder with home made cole slaw and fries for $15. I much prefer someone else do the deed. I just can't boil the poor fellas myself.

We have a really long winter but living on the Gulf of Maine does have its perks in the summah.

I like making more or less anything in a verracruz style: red snapper, halibut, grouper, tilapia.

I got some rocksifh at the beach back in April that was really good and some triggerfish back in January that also was excellent.

I usually just put a little something on it (CBGR for example) and just throw it in the oven. Keep it simple and serve it over couscous.
