Very Very fresh Salmon, (wild) filet, cut just behind the head. 'Pan-roast' with Penzies Chicago Steak seasoning, starting skin side down in a hot, heavy pan. After turing over, finished in a 350 oven until still rare in the middle.

Vote up!!!! :)

It is considered a trash fish, but I love amberjack. Great taste and texture that stands up to any cooking method.

Trash fish? gulp

I'm on the Florida west coast and for me there is no best fish. Fresh fish is quite available. My job is to not screw it up. Here are some amberjack fillets I cut a few weeks ago. I like it a tad pink in the middle for best texture. Currently amberjack is a favorite since it is plentiful, fresh and down right tasty.

My brother went fishing in the Gulf a few years back and caught an amberjack. He was thrilled and the guide was incredulous that he wanted to keep it.

Lots of guides from the Gulf region hate amberjack because they are often incredibly wormy and even a seasoned fisherman can be put off by it (which is what I was alluding to in my earlier post). After you've fileted a few jacks that look like they are hosting a tapeworm convention, you find it incredible that people still want to eat them.

Note: The worms are harmless to humans; they are just disgusting.

Cooked is a tie. Skate wing & roasted tuna head (when I can get it). Raw, any kind of tuna.
