Method

Preparing the Fish

  1. 1

    Season the Dorade

    In a bowl, season the dorade filets with olive oil, salt, and black pepper on both sides. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Fish

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the dorade filets skin-side down and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip the filets and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is cooked through.

Making Romesco Sauce

  1. 3

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a blender, combine the roasted red peppers, toasted almonds, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, paprika, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. 4

    Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the romesco sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Set aside.

Charred Cipollini Onions

  1. 5

    Prepare the Onions

    Peel the cipollini onions and toss them in olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Char the Onions

    Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the cipollini onions and char them for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are caramelized and tender.

Plating the Dish

  1. 7

    Assemble the Plate

    On a serving plate, place the crispy dorade filet. Spoon over a generous amount of romesco sauce. Arrange the charred cipollini onions alongside the fish.

  2. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with lemon wedges and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
