Directions
Seared Opah (Moonfish) With Vine-Ripe Tomato Garlic Butter,It’s my understanding that Opah isn’t easy to come by, so I was thrilled when I found some. Then I discovered that there are not many recipes out on the internet, so recipes are also hard to come by. I found this one and we loved both the fish and the recipe. I also had to search for a recipe for the Tomato Concasse, so included it here for convenience. Just as a note, I didn’t use nearly as much butter as the recipe calls for. From Chef Linda Yamada of the Beach House in Hawaii.,This was absolutely AMAZING. I kept the fish warm in a 180 oven while the sauce reduced as it took some time. The freshness of the tomatoes and garlicky butter are absolutely delicious with the flaky Opah. A side note – I realized at the end of the meal prep that the author used to be the head Chef for the restaurant used to bartend at 10 years ago! She left just prior to my employment there, but a lot of her recipes carried on and the Beach House is a fantastic stop for great food on Kaua’i. Thank you for the recipe Chef Yamada!!!,grill instead of broil or bake
