Time 1h46m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
6 garlic cloves, smashed
1 thyme bundle
2 bay leaves
1 lemon, zest removed from the lemon with a vegetable peeler in wide strips
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
3 Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed
4 (6-ounce) Pacific halibut fillets
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the olive oil, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, lemon zest, crushed red pepper flakes and fennel seeds. Bring to a boil then turn the heat off and let it sit for at least 1 hour. (*Big tip: This can be done ahead and used for LOTS of different things.)
  • Using a mandoline, slice 1 potato extremely thin, (paper thin), in elongated rounds. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a clean, dry work surface. Arrange 3 potato slices in an overlapping vertical line pressing them together as you put them on the parchment. Repeat this process until you have a 4 by 6-inch overlapping potato rectangle that replicates fish scales. Brush the potato "scales" with the infused oil and sprinkle with salt. Season the halibut with salt. Lay the halibut fillet closer to 1 end of the potato rectangle than the other and then roll the fish up in the potato slices, using the parchment to help facilitate the rolling. Press to compact and really adhere the potatoes to the fish. Brush the outside of the potatoes with the infused oil to seal the potatoes and to prevent the potatoes from turning brown, this will also help make a nice tight "fish package". Reserve the fish in the refrigerator while preparing the remaining fillets. Refrigerate the fillets for at least 1 hour before cooking.
  • To cook the fish:
  • Add the infused olive oil to a large nonstick saute pan until the bottom is generously covered and bring the pan to a medium-high heat. Season the fish with salt and add to the pan. Cook the fish on both sides for 3 to 4 minutes frequently spooning the excess oil over the fish to "baste" it. The potatoes should be crispy golden brown and very well flavored and the fish will be succulent inside its crispy "scales". Transfer to serving plates and serve.
  • This will make a fish lover out of anyone!

MOROCCAN-STYLE HALIBUT WITH MANGO AND GOLDEN RAISIN RELISH



Moroccan-Style Halibut with Mango and Golden Raisin Relish image

In less than 30 minutes from starting to prep the ingredients to serving, you can make this exotic fish dish and the accompanying fruit relish. Another time, make only the fruit relish and serve it with roasted pork or chicken.

Yield Serves 4; 3 ounces fish and 1/4 cup relish per serving

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup chopped mango
3 tablespoons golden raisins
1 tablespoon finely chopped red bell pepper
1 teaspoon snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
1/2 teaspoon white balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
4 halibut steaks (about 4 ounces each), cut about 3/4 inch thick, rinsed and patted dry
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the relish ingredients. Set aside.
  • In another small bowl, stir together the cumin, pepper, and coriander. Sprinkle over both sides of the fish. Using your fingertips, gently press the mixture so it adheres to the fish.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Place the fish in a single layer in the pan. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Transfer to a platter. Sprinkle the fish with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley. Spoon the relish over the fish.
  • Fresh halibut, a good source of omega-3 fatty acids and potassium, may be more widely available in the spring. If you can't find it, try frozen halibut steaks or steaks or fillets from another firm white fish, such as cod or haddock.
