Rich, Succulent, Tender, Rich

Monkfish is arguably the most unique texture in seafood. When prepared correctly Monkfish is most resemblant of Atlantic Lobster meat. Though versatile in preparation methods, many culinarians enjoy a slow application. Monk Tail "Osso Bucco" is a very recognized dish in American and European dining. Monkfish are predominantly sold "tails only". The tail is virtually the only usable part of the fish.
