SALT AND CHAR RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Season arctic char with salt, place in prepared baking dish, and sprinkle with lime zest.
• Combine lime juice, olive oil, sherry, rosemary, and garlic in a food processor; pulse until garlic is finely chopped. Spread mixture over fish and season with black pepper and cayenne pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes, basting with pan juices about halfway through. When the fish is close to being cooked, switch the oven to broil for remaining two minutes or until browned.

Steps:

• 1. Take the arctic char and bone it from the inside out. Remove the center bone and all of the side belly bones as best you can. 2. Trim the collar and then fold it open -- season with salt and pepper. Then take one filet and lay it down. Set aside four or five slices of lemon, four pieces of roasted garlic, and the springs of thyme.  3. Take the scallions and char them a little in a pan to create smokiness and then place them in the fish along with the lemons, garlic, and thyme. 4. Take the arctic char and some string and gently tie a knot around the fish in about three or four places. Cut off the excess string. 5. To roast, take a small roasting tray or pan. Lay out some sliced lemons and fresh thyme and place the fish on top. Coat the fish with a small amount of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Then place the tray in a 500 degree oven for about 10 to 12 minutes (The more firm the fish is, the more well done it will be). 6. Once cooked, set it down to cool and place on a serving platter. Remove the strings gently along with the lemon and thyme. Drizzle with olive oil, sea salt, and lemon juice and serve.
