  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook until lightly browned. Lay the pollock fillets in the skillet, and cook until golden on each side, about 5 minutes. When the fillets are starting to be done, break them into pieces with a fork or spatula.

  • Add the remaining butter to the skillet, and stir in the escargot. Cook and stir for about 4 minutes. Escargot cooks fast like shrimp, so watch it. Remove from the heat, and season with parsley, oregano and basil. Top with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.

We absolutly loved it. I used more garlic and more butter than the recipe called for because we like it very saucey. It was quick elegant and so very easy.

I made this as written but used "Homemade Spinach Pasta" (also from this site). I didn't care for the pollock in there. I think this would have been much better with just the escargot. We ate it but it's not something I'd make again.

I actually served this to my sister who's n ever had escargot and she liked it very much. I know some people have an aversion to snails just on hearing it. It's a very good dish.

This is good but I can see this recipe tweaked into something even better. First time cooking escargots and they turned out quite well. I wasn't content with the breaking up of the pollock- When you toss it all up with the pasta in the end it breaks up so much that you barely taste it and makes the dish paste-y. I used less butter more garlic caramelized the onions and added some homemade pickled cauliflower/carrot. This may have detracted from the original taste but we felt it needed veggies and that was our only solution. Looking back I would rinse them next time before chopping and adding the mix. I potentially foresee a remake of this dish without the fish changes to the sauce and adding veggies. Thanks for the inspiration!
