      Title: Gigot Of Monkfish Romarin w/Anchovies
 Categories: Fat ladies, Seafood, Herbs, Citrus
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
  2 1/4 lb Monkfish tail
      1    Tin anchovy filets
      6 tb Olive oil
           Juice of 1 lemon
           Salt & fresh ground pepper
      1 lg Bunch fresh rosemary

MMMMM---------------------TOMATO VINAIGRETTE--------------------------
     10 tb Olive oil
      4 ts Wine vinegar
      4 ts Fine chopped tomatoes
 
  Using a larding needle or a sharp knife, make slits in the
  fish and insert pieces of anchovy. Marinate the fish in a
  mixture of oil and lemon juice, seasoned with salt and
  pepper, for at least 2 hours.
  
  Lay the fish on a large bed of rosemary in a roasting tin.
  Pour more oil over the fish (It is the presence of fat that
  releases the essential oils of the rosemary). Roast in a
  preheated oven at 350oF/175oC for 45 minutes.
  
  To make the tomato vinaigrette, heat the ingredients in a
  small pan and season to taste.
  
  Transfer the fish to a serving dish and pour over the warm
  vinaigrette.
  
  Prep Time: 2 hours 15 minutes
  
  Cooking Time: 45 minutes
