Sea Salt Baked Dorado Fish with Brussels Sprouts
This dish combines the delicate flavor of Dorado fish with the rich and nutritious Brussels sprouts. Brussels sprouts are not only rich in flavonoids, acting as antioxidants in the body, but also contribute to anti-aging efforts and contain high levels of vitamins K and C.
Ingredients:
- 2x 400g Dorado fish
- 1 kg sea salt
- 4 sprigs of rosemary
- 2 egg whites, lightly beaten
- 14 Brussels sprouts
- 5 slices of bacon
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Zest of 1 lemon
Instructions:
1. Prepare
Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
2. Bacon:
Place the bacon slices individually on parchment paper and bake in a convection oven for 8-10 minutes until crispy.
Save the rendered bacon fat for later use in sautéing Brussels sprouts.
3. Fish:
Mix the sea salt with rosemary and egg whites. Spread a layer of this mixture on a baking tray.
Lay the Dorado fish on the salt mixture and cover it with the remaining salt mixture.
Bake in a 190°C (374°F) oven for about 30-35 minutes until the fish's eye turns opaque, indicating doneness.
Allow the fish to rest for a few minutes, then remove excess salt and skin, and pepper the fish fillet.
4. Brussels sprouts:
Blanch the Brussels sprouts for 2-3 minutes, then transfer them to ice water. Dry them thoroughly.
Sauté the Brussels sprouts in the rendered bacon fat for about 5 minutes, adding the crispy bacon towards the end.
5. Serve:
Serve the Dorado fish on a bed of Brussels sprouts, sprinkled with freshly ground black pepper.
