Teaspoon Minced garlic  
Cup Extra−virgin olive oil  
Tablespoon Chopped fresh basil  
Tablespoon Creole Mustard  
Chopped parsley; for garnish  
Preheat the grill. Season the fish with salt and pepper. In a large saute  
pan, combine the fish stock, wine, onions, thyme, bay leaves and garlic  
cloves. Season the liquid with salt and pepper. Bring the liquid up to a  
simmer. Add the whole fish and poach for about 8 to 12 minutes. After the  
first 8 minutes, stick a paring knife into the back of the fish and try to  
gently pull back the flesh from the bone. If the flesh sticks to the bone,  
poach for a couple of minutes more. Keep testing until the fish is done.  
Toss the vegetables with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place  
the vegetables on the hot grill and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each  
side. Remove from the heat and julienne the vegetables. Place the tomatoes  
in a blender and puree with the garlic, extra−virgin olive oil, basil and  
mustard. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. To assemble, place the  
julienned vegetables on a large plate. Lay the poached fish on top of the  
vegetables. Spoon the sauce over the top. Garnish with parsley. This recipe  
yields 2 servings.
