ROASTED HALIBUT WITH OLIVES, CAPERS, TOMATO AND BASIL

Steps:

• Season the fish fillet with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Place the fish in the pan, gently pressing on the flesh. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 4 minutes on 1 side, turn the fish over, and cook for another 2 minutes, or just until done. Remove from the heat to a serving plate and keep warm.
• In a medium saute pan, heat the butter on medium heat. When hot, add the olives, capers, tomato and garlic and cook until warm. Add the dry white wine and fish stock or clam juice. Cook another 2 minutes. Place olive mixture on top of the fish and garnish with basil.

HALIBUT WITH CAPERS, OLIVES, AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish and sauté until lightly browned and just opaque in center, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in same skillet. Add shallots and crushed red pepper; sauté 1 minute. Mix in tomatoes, olives, 1/4 cup basil, and capers. Add clam juice and wine. Boil until sauce thickens slightly, about 4 minutes. Mix in 1/4 cup basil. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over fish.

HALIBUT, SQUASH, TOMATOES, AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly season the halibut fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Cut 4 pieces of parchment paper (12 by 16 inches each) and lay them on a clean work surface. Fold each in half crosswise, making a crease in the middle, then open and lay flat.
• Cut yellow squash into julienned strips and divide among parchment rectangles, mounding on one side of the fold. Season with salt and pepper. Lay a piece of halibut on top of each pile of squash. Divide the cherry tomatoes (sliced in half, if large) and olives between the four piles and top each pile with thyme. Drizzle each with oil.
• Starting in one corner, fold each packet into a half-moon and seal well. Transfer packets to a rimmed baking sheet, and cook in the oven until parchment puffs up, about 12 to 14 minutes. To serve, place each packet on a plate and cut open with kitchen shears at the table, being careful not to burn yourself when the steam escapes.

BAKED HALIBUT WITH ZUCCHINI, OLIVES, TOMATOES AND ORANGES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Cut 2 (16-inch) squares cooking parchment paper or foil.
• Season both sides of fish with cinnamon, salt and pepper; place 1 piece each onto middle of parchment paper. For each piece, top with half the zucchini, olives and tomatoes; season with a pinch more salt and pepper. Pour 1 tablespoon stock over each, then top with half the orange slices and thyme.
• To make packets, roll and crimp opposite sides of parchment paper together over fish and vegetables, then roll and crimp ends to prevent steam from escaping. Place packets on cookie sheet.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Transfer packets to plates for serving.

TOMATO-POACHED HALIBUT WITH ARUGULA, OLIVE AND ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil a Dutch oven or deep rondeau pan over medium heat. Add the onions, peppers, garlic, jalapeno and a pinch of salt and cook until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the cumin, paprika and cayenne and toast for a minute before stirring in the tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper and simmer for 15 minutes, until all of the flavors come together. Remove from the heat and stir in the sherry vinegar to taste.
• Season the fish pieces on both sides and nestle into the sauce, leaving spacing in between. Roast, uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, until the fish is cooked through.
• In the meantime, remove the rind and segment the orange, reserving any juice. To a mixing bowl, add the arugula, olives and orange segments. Add in some of the orange juice and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and toss to coat the arugula.
• Place a piece of halibut onto a plate with a scoop of the tomato mixture. Top with some arugula salad and serve.

ROASTED HALIBUT WITH LEMONS, OLIVES AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place fish in a baking dish, brush fillets with 1 teaspoon of oil and season with salt and chile pepper. Top each fillet with a rosemary branch and several slices of lemon. Drizzle remaining oil over lemon slices and sprinkle with additional salt. Scatter olives over fish and pan.
• Bake until just opaque, about 10 minutes. If lemon slices have not browned or singed (this will depend on how thinly you slice them), place pan under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve drizzled with more olive oil; sprinkle with more salt and chili, if desired.

STEAMED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Line a steamer with fresh mixed herbs. Season halibut steaks with salt; place on herbs. Cover, and steam over simmering water until opaque, 5 to 7 minutes. Add a squeeze of lime.
