PAN-ROASTED HALIBUT WITH PROSCIUTTO, LEMON, WHITE WINE, AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the flour on a deep plate or in a shallow bowl and season well with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish in the flour. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon oil and the butter and get the skillet hot. Add the fillets and cook until browned on 1 side, 2 to 3 minutes. At the same time, add the prosciutto and cook, stirring, to brown. Then flip the fish, put the skillet in the oven, and roast until the fish is just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the fish to 2 serving plates. Dump the prosciutto out onto paper towels to drain. Put the skillet back over medium heat. Add another tablespoon olive oil, the white wine, lemon juice, capers, the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the parsley and bring to a boil; boil until reduced and thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the fish, top with the prosciutto, and serve immediately.

PAN-ROASTED HALIBUT PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Sprinkle the halibut with some salt. Sear the halibut on both sides until lightly golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the halibut to the prepared baking sheet lined and bake in the oven until the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Return the skillet to medium-low heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cook the onions and garlic until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the anchovy paste, olives and capers to the skillet and stir to combine. Add the crushed tomatoes and crushed red pepper flakes and bring to a low simmer for 5 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until the wine cooks off slightly, about 2 minutes. Season with salt.
• To serve, spoon the sauce directly onto the plate and top with the halibut filets. Top with the basil and lemon zest.

PAN-ROASTED HALIBUT WITH CLAMSHELL MUSHROOMS AND LEMON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in heavy skillet over medium-high heat until butter melts and begins to foam. Add mushrooms and a pinch of salt; saute in hot butter and oil golden brown, about 5 minutes. Push mushroom to the edges to clear a space in the center of the skillet.
• Season halibut on each side with salt and cayenne pepper. Place halibut fillets in the center of the skillet and cook until the fillets begin to flake, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer halibut to a warm serving plate.
• Pour the water into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until water is reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour lemon juice into mushroom mixture and stir.
• Stir butter and parsley into mushroom mixture. Stir constantly until butter melts and forms a sauce; remove from heat and season with salt and black pepper. Spoon sauce and mushrooms over halibut.

PEAS WITH HALIBUT

Steps:

• If using bacon, cut it into 1/4-inch bits, and render it with 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high heat in a large skillet, which can later be covered. Stir until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, and reserve. If using olive oil or butter, put 3 tablespoons in skillet over medium high heat.
• Brown fish in fat quickly, just a couple of minutes to a side, sprinkling it with salt and pepper as it browns. Remove, and set aside.
• Add onions to pan, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add peas and lettuce, and cook, stirring, until glistening. Add a little more salt and pepper. Return fish to pan, simply resting it on top of peas-lettuce mixture. Turn heat to medium-low, cover, and cook gently until fish is done. (A thin-bladed knife inserted into its thickest part will meet little or no resistance.)
• Remove fish to a platter. Stir bacon and mint into peas mixture. Taste, and adjust seasoning as necessary. Serve fish with vegetable mixture on the side.
