Garlic Baked Monkfish Recipe Recipe

Serves/Makes: 4

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds thick (1 1/2 -2inches) monkfish fillets
• 10 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
• 1/4 cup softened butter
• Several thyme sprigs or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 9 tablespoons thyme vinegar or white wine vinegar

How to cook:

• Use half the butter to coat a shallow baking dish just large enough to hold the fish in a single layer, and sprinkle with the garlic and thyme. Lay monkfish fillets on the herbs and dot with the remaining butter.
• Bake at 400 degrees F for 5 minutes, and then add 3 tablespoons of vinegar.
• Now bake and baste twice more until all the vinegar is used. Then bake for another 5 to 15 minutes, basting every 5 minutes, until the fish is opaque.
• (Cut through the thickest part to test. Do not let the fish become flaky or it will lose its lobsterlike texture.) Strain the sauce through a sieve, using a wooden spoon to push the garlic through the screening.
