Caribbean Spiced Pollack

[Cascars]

Fillet the Pollack (or Cod). Cut the fillets into strips about an inch wide and a couple of inches long.
Sprinkle both sides with some Caribbean Fish seasoning or spice and leave for a couple of hours. Either barbecue for 5 minutes or cook in the oven on 180 deg for about 15 minutes.
Serve with fresh salad.

i find that fresh pollack and cod need to be left in a cold place for a day or two to lose some of the wetness.

Or heat a frying pan very hot with a bit of oil, then fry each side - Blackened Fish. Works with mackeral too, and this recipe is great if you don't like mackeral usually as the spiciness takes away the oily taste.

have eaten and prepared most fish from England to South Africa and the one fish i can not get away with is pollock, have fried, boiled, steamed, curried etc pollock and i can still taste the iodine and the meat always seems weak. Will give this one a try sometime. where am i going wrong with pollock.

I have always filleted and then frozen it before eating it later, Whether that makes a difference I dont know but both I and my mother in law prefer it to cod, mind you I am often tempted to marinate hers in something a bit more nasty than spices:yucky:

cheers cascars, next time i get some i will freeze it first, for most fish i always think they taste better before freezing, maybe pollock is the exception. You must love your mother in law if you want to give her something special.
