GRILLED ONO WITH GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

 GRILLED ONO WITH GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

DINNER AT HOME

Enjoyed an incredible piece of fresh Hawaii Ono for dinner.  Ono is a Hawaiian word meaning "good to eat" and the fish is commonly known as Wahoo which is a close relative of the King Mackerel.  Ono is meaty and has a very light flavor.  You really need a good sauce to kick up the taste of Ono.  I made a Garlic Cream Sauce using shallots, garlic, butter, white wine, cream, salt and pepper.  Sauce is easy.  Melt tablespoon of butter in pan and then add garlic and shallots.  Cook and then deglaze with white wine.  Reduce the wine and add 1/4 cup of cream, more butter to taste and salt/pepper.  The sauce was amazing and really worked well with the fish and mashed potatoes.  Cooked the Ono on an indoor grill pan until both sides were seared.  Finished in a 350 degree oven for around ten minutes.  This was an exceptionally good meal that would have cost $25-$30 per plate in a Hawaii restaurant.  I pulled it off for around $15 total for three.
