BS Gal makes an excellent rockfish chowder. I'll bug her for the recipe. I've done blackened and liked it. Just follow directions on the blackening seasoning package. (And have your vent fan on high)

We just cut ours up into chunks, use a really light store-bought fish batter on them, throw in a bunch of creole seasoning, and dump them in our big fryer. Yum!

That's good, too! That is the one thing I don't like about cooking it- the house smells for two days. :lmao:
 
I like to wrap it in foil with tomatoes, onions and seasoning, and throw it on the grill, maybe 5-15 minutes on a side, depending on if it's a fillet or whole gutted.

We like our rockfish sauteed in olive oil and a little salt n pepper... some honey to at the end and then sprinkling a little sesame seed to the carmelized side..
soo good.

I always stuff it with cornbread stuffing and crab meat, then sprinkle a little old bay and butter on it and bake it. Yummy!

season the fish with old bay, lemon juice and butter. Bake about 20 minutes. YUMMMMMMMMMMMM.

This, plus a little salt and pepper. For a quick tartar sauce, mix two parts mayo with one part sweet pickle relish, some fresh lemon juice, salt, pepper and a touch of Old Bay. You won't get store-bought again.

Rockfish and Corn Chowder

4 T butter at room temp
2 T chopped onion
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 carrot, chopped fine
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 medium potatoes, dices
2 cups fish stock or clam juice
1 qt milk
2 cups corn kernals, fresh or frozen
Salt and freshly group black pepper to taste
2 T flower
1 pound rockfish or striped bass, skinned and cut into 1/2 inch pieces, or 1 pint shucked oysters

In large pot over medium heat, melt 2 T butter. Add the onion, bell peppers, carrot and celery and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add the potatos and stock or clam juice and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the vegetables, discard the cooking liquid.

Add the milk, corn and salt and pepper to the veggies and bring the chowder to a boil.

In a small bowl, cream together the flour and the remaining 2 T butter. Gradually stire the mixture into the boiling chowder. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes.

Add the fish or oysters to the soup and cook just until fish is cooked through, about ten minutes.


Serve immediately.
