This salmon gets marinated in a maple and jalapeno sauce, then gets topped with additional maple syrup during baking, for a perfect spicy-sweet marriage of flavors. This only has a hint of heat, so double the jalapeno if desired. Use center-cut salmon fillets that are approximately 1 inch thick.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh halibut: Look for a firm, white fish with a mild, slightly sweet flavor.
  • Marinate the halibut: Marinating the halibut in a mixture of soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, and ginger helps to tenderize the fish and add flavor.
  • Use a light hand with the breading: Too much breading can make the fish greasy and heavy. Coat the halibut lightly in flour, then egg, then panko breadcrumbs.
  • Fry the halibut in hot oil: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
  • Serve the halibut with a dipping sauce: A simple tartar sauce or a spicy mayonnaise sauce are both great options.

Conclusion:

Firecracker halibut is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is tender and flaky on the inside, with a crispy crust on the outside. The firecracker sauce adds a spicy kick that is sure to please everyone at the table.
