grillin' without a license
Ok busted, but I do have a Permit, bah dum dum. I finally got around to hookin' that baby up and I need to tell you - its good.
The texture is firm the flavor is mild and, get this, citrusy, yeah you heard that right - this fish has a slight lemon tang to it that is very pleasant. I am glad I took the chance on this fish, it was unusual for the market and I rather doubt I will see it again, it tastes like chicken!
Criss cross fish (I know I said I didnt want to grill it but I couldnt come up with anything better) a little sweet potato, a little pea puree, a drizzle swirl of acacia truffle honey and all hands have been dealt.

I thought for sure at first you went fishing...
then I remembered you are in NY no need to fish right?
Awesome hatch pattern on the fish! You're making me jealous that you got to grill out tonight. The fish looks awesome.
Ah, it's finally Permit's turn. The result turned out delish.
Wonder if I can find a Permit, haven't seen it available. Delicious preparation with the truffle honey!
just: well, we can go fishing...if we want to
elyse: grill out...no, grill pan..
jenn: permit finally got to shine
5 star: its possible- I have seen them in the porgie bin - I think....
Oh, this Permit fish looks like Silver Pomfret.
This dish looks very delicious!
We've been waiting for Permit. (I skip the "the" because I like to think of him as Permit Petterson) Was the texture like red fish? kind of meaty?
kennyT: silver pomfret? I need to look that up..I bet you are right
anette: Permit Petterson from Oslo? the texture was like tender chicken breast..
Love your site, found it though 5-star foodie. I have never seen this fish, it looks delicious! I will bookmark and be back
Truffle oil and truffel honey is rocin in Christo kitchen... When I see this fish I remember your fishing expedition pic that you sent me :).. Slurrp slurrp I am feeling hungry again...
hmm...those eyes would haunt me.
I've never served fish with sweet potato. I might have to give this a whirl.
Permit went out in good style. Nicely done and great grill marks!
Ocean fish always seem to be firmer than fresh water fish.. I guess it's because of the currents and tides...Looked good!
Great use of truffle honey. Must have been delish with the carrots too! The fish looks amazing, but I know I won't find Permit here.
sarah: thanks for stopping by...
ramya: I really hope to get this fish again
TK: dont worry the permit only has eyes for other permits
marjie: the sweetness of the potato contrasted nicely with the pea puree
jeff: he did have an honorable discharge...
buff: this fish was not like any fish I have had before - it wasnt cheap - this one fish was 8 bucks
lisaiscooking: the truffle honey blows the truffle oils right out of the ballpark
But he was looking straight at me!
what a meal!!! :)
Citrusy fish that tastes like chicken? Now we're talking. This looks incredible, doggy. Also, I loved your intro. Funny!
I truly believe that fish, just about all kinds, should be grilled on the grill. I mean it just cooks perfectly you know? Well, obviously you know. Looks good Dog!
TBD: did he wink?
mikky: indeed it was
diva: this fish is unlike any other fish - I can emphasize that enough
dawn: grilled is the answer for sure...
We like him better when he's not looking us dead in the eye. Hmm, is that a pun? The final drizzle of truffle honey is niiiiice.
Whoa, never even heard of Permit. Those fillets look amazing though! Nicely done!
duo: is he getting 'fresh' with you?
jason: I am going to scour Chinatown until I find another - they had several the day I got it but I havent seen them since.
that looks really, really good. Do you go to the roof to grill?
