They have the skin on. Do I assume I would grill or bake.

I always take the skin/scales off, clean up the blood line and grill, but on a day like today I would be very tempted to chunk it up and make a court bullion

I like a good court bouillion. John Folse has a good recipe, I'm sure the OP can find it online.

I like to season and bake them. Then put some butter on top and finish them under the broiler.

My favorite redfish on the scales recipe:

- Coat the fish with a thin layer of sour cream and season with salt and pepper
- Cook the fish with the scale side down in the oven at 350 degrees or on the grill until it is fully cooked.
- Remove the fish from the grill or oven and set your oven to the broil setting on high. Move the rack up to the top close to the heating element.
- Coat the fish with a layer of shredded Parmesan cheese and put on the top rack in the oven on broil until the cheese browns.

This is about the only way I will cook my redfish now because it's so damn good!

All of the above ideas are very good.

If they are small you can fry them too and they very good fried.

Before there was a size limit or even a bag limit I used to love to fry those 12 and 14 inch fish.

Season fish with Tony's
Cover fish with a layer of ranch salad dressing

I will apologize upfront but I have no idea what a court bouillion is.

I heard of it for a long time but never had the opportunity to try one.
What is it?

Grill on half shell (dust with creole seasoning and grill meat side down for 1-2 minutes, then flip to scales down and cook till done throughout). Use knife or spatula to separate meat from scales when done.

Make a roasted red pepper cream sauce to top. (reduced heavy whipping cream in sauté pan with roasted red peppers, granulated garlic and salt/pepper),

We eat Redfish about once a week and always looking for different ways to cook it so I'll bookmark this thread.


Firecracker Buffalo Wing Style Buffalo Fish (Replace Buffalo with Redfish)

This recipe is for those of you who are actually looking for a buffalo wing recipe. To steer away from the same repetitive buffalo chicken wing recipes that nearly every household and restaurant uses, I came up with variance to offer you a slightly new look and feel for your taste buds. This recipe can also be used for nearly all types of white fleshed fish with little to no bony structure, such as cod or catfish.

Spicy Buffalo Fish
Ingredients:

buffalo fish, fillets, cut into strips, 2-3 pounds
½ cup flour
1 package Lawry's Hot Taco Seasoning
? cup butter
? cup hot pepper sauce
¼ teaspoon salt
frying oil
Cooking Directions For Spicy Buffalo Fish:

In a sauce pan over medium heat, add butter, hot pepper sauce, and a pinch of salt. Heat until butter is completely melted and stirred together, then set aside.

Meanwhile, preheat cooking oil to 375°F in a deep fryer or large frying pan. Mix together the package of hot taco seasoning with the flour in a bowl or plastic zip loc bag. Add the buffalo fish strips and coat evenly. Cook the fish 3-4 minutes per side until it's crispy golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Toss the fish strips together with the hot pepper sauce and serve.

Bronzed Redfish

I like making little fish cakes with them. I bake 2 half shell fillets till it flakes like normal. Flake all the meat off in a bowl and add more seasoning, breadcrumbs, eggs, potatoes and green onions. Form them in little cakes and cook them over a skillet and brown each side.
