Cold Poached Bluefish With Dill Sauce

Recipe #240974 | 35 min | 20 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Chopin Liszt

I first ate this at the Grand Central Oyster Bar in NYC, a truly great seafood restaurant. This is my recreation of that dish. It's nice for a summer luncheon. Bluefish has a texture which is ideal for this preparation.

Ingredients

  • lbs bluefish fillet
  • 1 1/2 cups dry white wine
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • teaspoon salt
  • black pepper

  • 1 cucumber, peeled and sliced
  • 4 fresh dill sprigs
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Heat the wine and water to a simmer in a covered pan large enough to hold the fish in one layer.

      Cut the fillets into 4 equal portions and place them in the pan, skin side down.
    3. 3
      Season with salt and pepper.
    4. 4
      Cook, covered, at a gentle simmer for 10 minutes (14 minutes if the fillets are more than 1 inch thick.
    5. 5
      Remove pan from heat and allow to cool uncovered.
    6. 6
      Remove fillets and chill in the refigerator for two hours or more (a day or two is OK).
    7. 7
      Prepare dill sauce according to recipe #106801.
    8. 8
      Plate the fillets with a blanket of dill sauce and a garnish of cucumber slices and a dill sprig.
