Grilled Artic Char
2 six ounce portions artic char
1oz. olive oil
Salt/Pepper
Slaw Recipe
1/4 Cup Grilled corn off the cob
1/4 Cup chopped ripe tomatoes
1/4 Cup chopped artichokes (canned)
1/4 Cup chopped green onions
1 Cup green cabbage sliced thin
1 Cup red cabbage sliced thin
1 Cup red vinager
1/4 Cup olive oil
1/4 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup orange preserves
Salt/Pepper
Brush the Artic Char with oil, salt and pepper.
Make sure the grill is hot first, then either spray or brush oil
on the grill. Set the fish on the heat. Cook each side of the
fish for about 8-10 minutes per side. For the slaw, mix all the
above ingredients in a mixing bowl. It is best to mix the slaw
a few hours before and then refridgerate. This will allow for
maximum flavors. To set the plate put the slaw down first using
a spoon, this allows the dressing from the slaw to be used as
the sauce for the fish. Then set the fish atop of the slaw. Makes
2 servings.
