PAN SEARED BRAISED HALIBUT IN A PUTTANESCA SAUCE SERVED WITH GNOCCHI AND ESCAROLE

Steps:

• Liberally salt and pepper the halibut. Place 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium-sized, non-stick pan. When oil is shimmering, place the halibut, skin-side down, in pan. Cook on both sides for 2 minutes or to desirable color. Place halibut aside. In a medium-sized saute pan over medium heat, add remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once it is hot, add the shallots, red pepper flakes, and parsley, and saute for 2 minutes. Then add 3 of the 4 garlic cloves, and cook another minute. Deglaze pan with 1/2 cup of the white wine and add tomatoes, capers, olives, and halibut. Cook on low heat until most of the liquid is evaporated and fish is firm to the touch.
• To plate: Place escarole in center of plate; put halibut on top of escarole, then surround fish and escarole with Gnocchi. Finish with sauce as needed.
• Place olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a small saute pan over medium heat. When the garlic starts to brown add roughly chopped escarole until wilted add a dash of salt and pepper and finish with white wine.
• On a clean cooking surface (cutting board) place the flour spreading it out to make a well about 6 inches in diameter. In the middle of the well place the eggs, cheeses, salt, and pepper. Stir mixture, then slowly incorporate flour to wet mixture until the mixture becomes cohesive. Continue kneading until dough is dry to touch (add more flour, if needed.) Cut small pieces of dough, roll out to make 6-inch rolls, 1-inch in diameter, then using a large chefs knife cut into 1-inch long pieces. When finished, add to a pot of boiling water, gnocchi are done when they float to the top. Drain.

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.

GORDON RAMSAY'S ROASTED CHICKEN WITH HERB GNOCCHI AND MUSHROOMS.

• 1 tbsp butter Bake the potatoes in the oven until the skin is crisp on the outside and the potato is soft and fluffy in the middle. Scoop out the flesh then pass through a mouli until completely smooth and there are no lumps (a food mill would also work for this).
• Lay the potatoes out on the work surface and dust with flour. Mix together.
• Make a well in the middle of the potato and flour mix. Beat the eggs and cheese together and pour into the well. Gradually fold together the potato and flour mix into the wet ingredients then add the herbs and seasoning to taste.
• Scoop the mixture into a bowl and cool until firm. Shape the mixture into long sausages, about 1.5cm thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 2-3 cm lengths with the back of a knife so the ends are blunted a little.
• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the gnocchi. As soon as they float to the surface, give them another 30 seconds then fish out with a slotted spoon into a bowl of ice-cold water. Repeat with the rest. Drain then dry completely with kitchen paper or in a clean tea towel. Toss in a little olive oil.
