This recipe...isn't really a recipe. It's a more of a informative guide on monkfish. This includes what monkfish actually is, what it tastes like, and how and where you can get it. Though they say to go to the freezer section of a grocery store, we recommend that you obtain your product from a fresh fish market. They even give a step by step process about how to prep the fish if you've bought the entire tail (head not included). Added to the page are also different methods of cooking monkfish, as well as links to recipes Food Network has done using those methods.

This fish may be affectionately named the "poor man's lobster", but there's certainly nothing poor about it. It's namesake came from it's similar thick texture and slightly sweet flavor, which reminds people of a lobster (just much more affordable). Nagi made this recipe more for the Brown Butter Sauce, which is a very easy sauce to make but showcases the fish and how easy it is to make a delicious dish with it. The recipe takes about 15-20 minutes to complete, start to finish, and is perfect for a quick mid-week meal.
