Things You'll Need

  • 1 lb. wolf fish fillets or steaks

  • 2 tbsp. butter, melted

  • Juice from 1 lemon

Wolf fish is also known as wolffish, and is a large marine fish that is often sold in fillets or steaks. Cooking it is very simple and similar to preparing other forms of lean fish. You can use any method except grilling because the fish will stick. Since the flavor of wolf fish is very delicate, you will want to keep the seasonings to a minimum. A sprinkle of some salt and pepper and a squirt of lemon juice should be all you need to finish off your wolf fish dish. Serve with your choice of accompaniments.
