I just love fish, however I'm wondering if there are any dishes I may not have tried. What's everyone's favourite?

    Last night I made salmon grilled on lime slices that was brushed with butter, lime juice, and lime mojito grill seasoning! It was very good!

    Sashimi! don't need anything on it really but of course you can dip it in wasabi and soy sauce or Worcestershire. I do talapia in the oven with garlic, italian seasoning and lemon juice. I also like pan fried or oven baked salmon with capers. Also, salmon, capers and cream cheese on a croissant...nom nom

    I love tuna or swordfish steak - and a fresh steak is tasty enough that it barely needs anything on it - grilled with a squeeze of lemon and it's good to go :)

    I buy salmon at Sam's (no skin) and slice it into portions and freeze. When I am ready to eat it I thaw it and sprinkle it with Grill Mates Smokehouse Maple seasoning and toss it on my Foreman grill (I use Pam to avoid sticking) for a few minutes. Amazing! A touch of sweetness from the ample bits and pepper and salt, slightly smokey.

    Salmon with sweet, tangy glaze. Mix equal parts brown sugar and dijon mustard. Put in microwave for just a few seconds to get the sugar to melt, stir well. Pour thin layer on top of salmon, then broil on low in oven until cooked. NOM NOM NOM.

    I love this tomato caper sauce. It's so simple, but it tastes so complex.

    I love a nice salmon fillet brushed with sweet chilli sauce and baked. It makes a lovely sweet and spicy glaze.

    Pasta with seafood sauce. Make a basic roux with flour and butter, and seafood stock as the liquid. Customize it with garlic, herbs, capers, whatever suits your fancy. Toss the sauce with some pasta, and serve with your favorite fish.

    I like baking fish and serving it with brownrice, tomatoes,cilantro,onion, sesame seeds and siracha hot sauce. The bad boy in me likes to also do fish fry with hush puppies, cole slaw, and ice cold beer or root beer.

    This is one of my go-to recipes. I have served it at dinner parties and as an easy weeknight meal.

    You cook the fish in parchment and everyone gets a little "package" on their plate. It looks fancy. ;) When it's my turn to cook dinner and I make this, my husband always tells me he feels like he's eating in a restaurant ;)

    I enjoy a lighter fish like mahi-mahi blackened with some of Paul Prudhomme's (sp?) seasoning. For two filets I use two tablesspoons of butter.

    I love fish so much I usually just top with thin slice tomatoes or lemons and brush with olive oil and bake. Sometimes we make fish sticks for the kids using almond flour and coconut oil. With summer here we had grilled shrimp and calamari sauteed in ghee. It was DELICIOUS.

    I've made this recipe before. I added sliced green olives and peas. It was really good! I can't wait to have my mom over so I can make it for her.

    I've made that too and served it over spaghetti squash. It's so good, but her tomato caper is out of this world!

    I do salmon and trout the most, in a variety of ways, but one alternative I'd recommend is skate in brown butter.

    Basically just brown some butter in a pan, put in the skate and cook briefly on each side until done (this takes very little time, don't overcook), and then add a little white wine vinegar and serve.

    Delicious--I think I learned about it from Cooking in 10 Minutes by Eduard de Pomiane, which is also a fun and useful cookbook: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2010/aug/10/50-best-cookbooks-edouard-pomiane.

    I don't know much about fish... I have bought salmon fillets and pan fried them with salt and pepper and squeezed lime juice all over when served on a plate.

    I also did salmon ceviche and it was DELICIOUS!! :yum:

    Definitely making this over the weekend! Yum :) Do you make your own stock, or buy canned/premade?

    Honey-soy glazed sesame salmon is divine. I also like making a pasta dish with prawns in a spicy tomato sauce with sautéed bell peppers and just a small tbsp of light crème fraîche. Or make a herby tomato sauce with cod, mussels and olives. Whole oven baked trout with lemon and rosemary is a definite summer favorite.

    My go-to salmon dish, this is in the Skinnytaste cookbook. Sweet and Spicy sriracha glazed salmon.

    I serve this with a salad or the sesame roasted green beans from the same cookbook.

    Saturday we grilled salmon -- dusted with white pepper, sea salt, & dill.
    Sunday we grilled halibut steaks -- with 1/2 pat of butter , sea salt, and squeeze of lime juice

    Halibut or cod, I pan sear in truffle oil and finish with a little lemon. Salmon, I do two ways- either maple syrup and teriyaki or a dry rub with brown sugar, the sugar caramelizes and it's sooo good.
