Red Snapper Fillets with Gorgonzola |
|
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cashews 1 pound Gorgonzola cheese or any good-quality blue cheese, at room temperature 1/4 cup framer cheese, at room temperature 1/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature 3 pounds red snapper fillets, cut into 8 serving pieces 16 1/4-inch-thick lemon slices for grilling |
|
1. Toast the cashews: Place the nuts in a
single layer in a frying pan and set over medium heat. Watch carefully,
stirring often. As soon as the nuts begin to brown, stir constantly for
about 1 minute, until lightly browned on all sides. Remove form heat and
allow to cool, then chop the nuts.
2. Combine the Gorgonzola, farmer cheese, cream cheese, and chopped cashews in a small bowl. Spread and pat the mixture over the tops of the fillets to cover. 3. Grill the fish: Place the lemon slices on the prepared grill. Arrange the fillets, Gorgonzola side up, on the lemon slices. Grill for 4-8 minutes, without turning, or until the fillets are cooked through and have lost their translucence. Notes from the chef. You can increase the cream cheese to 1/2 cup if you don't have farmer cheese. This recipe works well for any medium-firm white fish.
