Time 16m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 potato
10 ounces whiting fish fillets
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
vegetable oil, for frying
1 tablespoon onion, minced (optional)
1 garlic clove, minced (optional)

Steps:

  • Slice potato with a mandolin to get uniform, extra thin slices. For each serving arrange about 8 slices of the potato on a flat surface so that there are 2 rows of 4 slices each, slightly overlapping. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Lay the fish fillet down the center of the potatoes slices. Bring up both sides of the potatoes to form a packet. The potato will "stick" to the fish. Sprinkle with paprika.
  • Heat enough oil in a skillet to coat bottom of pan over medium high heat. If using garlic or onion, sauté 1 or 2 minutes and remove if desired (you can also leave them in). Cook potato-fish packet 3 minutes on each side.
  • Serve over sautéed spinach, arugula, or broccoli rabe.

POTATO-CRUSTED HALIBUT

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

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!

ROASTED HALIBUT AND POTATOES WITH ROSEMARY



Roasted Halibut and Potatoes With Rosemary image

This is a great method for roasting any type of firm-fleshed fish fillet. The seasoning mimics one often used for pork chops, and all the cooking is done in the oven, except for the initial boiling of the potatoes. The result ticks all the boxes - it is easy to prepare; it uses a minimum of pots and pans; and most important, it is utterly delicious.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes
Kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 (6- to 8-ounce) halibut fillets (or substitute other firm-fleshed white fish), about 1-inch thick
Black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon roughly chopped rosemary, plus 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary, for garnish
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon crushed fennel seeds (optional)
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Boil potatoes in well-salted water for 15 minutes, until tender. Rinse with cold water to cool, then cut each potato in half lengthwise.
  • Transfer potatoes to shallow roasting pan, or rimmed baking sheet large enough to hold potato halves in 1 layer.
  • Drizzle potatoes generously with 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil. Using your hands, massage the potatoes to coat with oil and turn potatoes cut-side up. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Roast potatoes, uncovered, until nicely browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • As potatoes cook, prepare the fish: Season fish fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with garlic, rosemary, red-pepper flakes and crushed fennel seeds, if using. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then rub seasoning into fillets.
  • When potatoes are brown, use a spatula to push them to the sides of baking dish, leaving room in the center for the fish. Lay fillets side by side in 1 layer. Roast fish until opaque and just cooked through, about 15 minutes. It should flake when pressed gently.
  • Transfer fish and potatoes to a warm platter or individual plates. In a small bowl, mix together parsley, lemon zest and finely chopped rosemary. Sprinkle parsley mixture over fish and potatoes. Serve with lemon wedges.
