Best Tuscan Halibut For Two Recipes

TUSCAN HALIBUT WITH GRILLED PEPPERS AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat. Arrange fish on a rimmed baking sheet; brush 1 tablespoon of the oil over both sides of fish. Sprinkle salt and pepper over fish.
• In a small bowl, toss pepper strips with remaining olive oil to coat. Grill peppers turning once, until light grill marks appear, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter or rimmed baking sheet and keep warm.
• Grill fish on covered grill 3 minutes per side or until fish is opaque in center. Arrange peppers on four warmed dinner plates. Place fish over peppers; top with olives.

HALIBUT WITH TUSCAN BEANS AND ENDIVE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the endive quarters, sprinkle with sugar and cook, tossing a couple of times, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the red onion, peppers and garlic and cook until the endive is wilted, about 2 more minutes. Raise the heat to high, add the beans, broth and rosemary and continue cooking, mashing some of the beans with a spoon to thicken the sauce slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper; place skin-side up in the pan and cook until golden, about 4 minutes. Turn and cook until firm but still translucent in the center, 4 more minutes.
