Best Roasted Halibut With Pea And Mint Salad Recipes

ROASTED HALIBUT WITH GRAPEFRUIT FENNEL SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In small bowl combine the grapefruit segments, juice, and zest. Halve the fennel bulb lengthwise, thinly slice and add to the bowl. Add the olive oil, olives, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
• Meanwhile, place the fish on a parchment-lined roasting dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper and bake for 10 to 12 minutes depending on thickness.
• Gently transfer the fish to a serving plate. Top with the grapefruit and fennel salsa and serve immediately.

HALIBUT AND CHICKPEA SALAD

Steps:

• For the halibut: Place a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the halibut with olive oil and season both sides with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Let the fish rest for a few minutes then cut into 1-inch cubes.
• For the salad: In a large bowl, combine the frisee, arugula, tomatoes, chickpeas, and fennel. In a small bowl mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, cumin, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the salad and toss to combine. Top with fish and serve.

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.

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.
