Fish recipes for someone who is picky with fish?

Start off by using boxed fillets(generally white fillets are the best to begin with) or filleted and sliced fresh fish from your local supermarket.This way there's barely a fish smell , if at all.Once you get used to (fall in love!!) with these then you could progress onto buying whole fish and eventually - even gut them yourself! Just kidding, but here is a fantastic recipe:

Pan fry fish fillets until done and keep warm.

(I love to use fresh,filleted Atlantic Salmon but frozen fish works perfectly as well)

Gently heat about 1/2 a cup of thickened cream.When it reaches a sauce like consistency, add in 20g butter (regular,salted)and 1 1/2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice. Continue stirring and cooking until butter is melted and the desired consistency is reached.

Switch off stove and add in a little chopped fresh cilantro or parsley and a quick grind of black pepper.

Serve immediately spooned over fish with a greek salad on the side.

ENJOY!

Tips to buy fish- look for clear glossy eyes and glossy skin. If the skin is a bit slimey, even better. If you press the flesh of the fish, it should NOT leave a dent. Check the gills. If the gills are red the fish is fresh. If you get a fresh fish, the less fishy it will be. After scaling and rinsing the fish it should NOT smell fishy, it should smell of the sea.

NEXT: my sister dislikes fish usually, but the ways I make that she enjoys are- teriyaki salmon- where you cut the salmon into big chunks, roll them in cornstarch and deep fry, then coat the chunks in teriyaki sauce and serve that over rice. I suppose anything that masks the fishiness will be great. Salmon with creamy dill sauce and potatoes is also great- the dill is a strong herb and goes really well. Do you like smoked salmon? There are so many recipes you can make with it. I get salmon that has been smoked in a portion rather than slices, and wrap it in puff pastry with the dill sauce or dill butter, Then bake until flakey. Well, i hope this gives you some ideas!

I prefer my fish simple. No fancy sauces. The most important part is the quality of fish. I usually use halibut, but salmon also. Medium heat, olive oil, fillet of fish, a little lemon juice, with a little salt and pepper, touch of cayenne if so desired, all in heavy skillet. Cover and let simmer for a couple of minutes, turn and again for a couple minutes. Where most people make a huge mistake with fish is they cook it all the way through. You should take it away from the heat just before the flesh is fully opaque, leave it covered, and let the inherent heat finish the cooking. If you do this properly, the fish will retain more flavor, and stay juicy. It should flake easily, and have no indication of dryness. If you insist on some kind of sauce, it should be a mild flavor, like a bearnaisse, to enhance the flavor rather than hide.

Tilapia or orange roughy are very light fish that have a mild taste. My son hates the 'fishy' taste but will eat these two kinds. There are a ton of recipes out the and these two fish allow the flavors of spices used in the recipes to take center stage.

Tilapia with lime is excellent and very easy. It is also great with garlic!

Fresh fish never smells fishy. If it does, pass on it. We eat fish almost every day. This is my favorite and really easy way to cook salmon.

2 salmon portions

3 tbsp dark brown sugar

1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper

sea salt to taste

I preheat the oven to 425. I cover a cookie sheet with foil so I don't have to clean it afterwards, and spray it with some cooking spray. Lightly salt the fish and sprinkle with a mixture of the brown sugar and pepper . Bake it for about 10 minutes until cooked to your liking ( I like it slightly undercooked).

Low fat and absolutely delicious!!

Fish isn't one of my favorite things, (and I HATE the smell of it cooking), but we BBQ salmon once a week, and I do like that:) I lightly coat with olive oil, and sprinkle with Creole seasoning and lots of dried dillweed; 5-8 min on each side, over mesquite chips. You'd also like swordfish and halibut, since they're firm fish and don't taste fishy at all. They're good with any marinade, but teriyaki is especially good on the BBQ.....

Stay away from oily fish like mackeral, king fish, blue fish....etc

Stay with the mild fish like cod, flounder, sole, haddock, grouper

garlic butter fish gortons is good flounder spagetti sauce cheese is great breaded itlaion crumbs baked flounder

so before you cook it make sure you rinse it and wash it properly and throughly with lemon juice! this would take away the smell.
