This is for all the oily fish lovers out there, and the chile butter will help cut through the richness of the fish. If you can’t find Calabrian chiles (we love these Tutto Calabria ones), grate any fresh red chile into the butter. The flavor won’t be as complex, but you’ll keep the heat, which is the perfect counterpoint to the fish.
