FRESH MARLIN WITH WHITE WINE, BUTTER AND CAPER SAUCE

DINNER AT HOME

Picked up some beautiful and delicious fresh Marlin for $4.99 per pound.  Simply grilled it and served with a White Wine, Butter and Caper Sauce that was the bomb.  This restaurant quality dinner is not only great tasting but also very inexpensive and healthy.  Entire family loves this.  For the sauce, saute some shallots and garlic in olive oil.  Add White Wine and reduce.  Add Chicken Stock and reduce.  Add Cream and then butter and capers.  Capers provide the salt but you can add to taste.

DINNER AT HOME

So lucky to be able to enjoy really incredible fresh fish from waters around Hawaii.

Marlin is a beefy fish with delicate flavor.  It is great for the grill as long as you do not overcook it.

The fish can dry out quickly and become quite tough so I watch it closely and leave just a hint of pink in the middle.  Adding a sauce can really add flavor to Marlin.  For this dinner, I sauteed some shallots and garlic and then de-glazed with a touch of white wine.  After the wine reduced I added some chicken stock and reduced again.  To finish the sauce I added some butter and fresh thyme that a friend gave me from her garden.  The Marlin and sauce were delicious, light and fresh.
