Grilled Halibut with Crispy Rice and Green Beans Vinaigrette image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Canola oil, for pan-frying
3 cups cooked sushi rice, at room temperature
1/2 pound haricots verts or green beans
1 cup Fish Sauce Vinaigrette, recipe follows
3 tablespoons tobiko, plus more for garnish
Four 4-ounce skinless halibut fillets
Olive oil, for grilling
Wood sorrel, for garnish
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup fish sauce
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1 teaspoon Madras curry powder
1 teaspoon minced ginger
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 serrano chile, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest and juice of 1 lime

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Preheat a wood-fired or regular oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Coat the bottom of a 14-inch cast-iron pan with canola oil and turn on the heat to medium-high. Meanwhile, portion the rice into 4 flattened discs, about 3/4 cup each. Once the oil is heated, add the rice cakes and cook until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 6 minutes for each side.
  • Add the haricots verts to the boiling water and cook until slightly softened and brightened in color, about 2 minutes. Immediately transfer the haricots to an ice water bath until cool to the touch. Slice each haricot into thin rings. Transfer to a bowl and dress with some Fish Sauce Vinaigrette. Fold in the tobiko and set aside.
  • Prepare the fish for the grill by rubbing the fillets with olive oil and sprinkling with salt and pepper. Rub the grill grates with an oiled towel and lay the fillets down. Cook with the grill open until you have nice grill marks and the fish releases easily from the grill, 5 to 7 minutes on the first side. Flip and let cook another 5 minutes. Remove the fish to a sheet tray. Transfer to the oven until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Place the crispy rice cakes on a platter and top with the grilled halibut fillets. Drizzle the Vinaigrette over the fish and around the platter. Garnish each halibut fillet with a teaspoon of the tobiko and a few sprigs of the wood sorrel and serve.
  • Whisk together the olive oil, fish sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, sugar, chives, curry powder, ginger, sesame oil, chile, garlic, lime zest and juice in a small bowl until combined.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 pounds golf ball-size baby potatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound cipollini onions
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, and more for brushing
1 bunch fresh oregano
1 cup mixed olives, such as Kalamata, Castelvetrano, and Cerignola
1 1/2 pounds halibut steaks or skin-on fillets (about 1 1/2 inches thick), preferably Alaskan
1 ciabatta or other rustic loaf, split
Peppery greens, such as arugula and dandelion, for serving

Steps:

  • In a pot, cover potatoes with 2 inches water; generously season with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; cook 8 minutes. Add onions; continue boiling until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife and onions are crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes more. Drain; let cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, peel onions.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high. In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together vinegar, mustard, and 1/2 cup oil. Chop enough oregano to yield 3 tablespoons (from 2 to 3 sprigs) and stir into vinaigrette with olives; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, toss potatoes and onions with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Brush fish and remaining oregano sprigs with oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Brush grates with oil, add vegetables, and grill, turning a few times, 6 minutes. Add fish to grill and top with oregano. Cook fish and vegetables, turning fish once halfway through, until fish is just cooked and vegetables are charred in places and tender, 8 to 10 minutes more. Transfer to dish with vinaigrette, turning to evenly coat. Let stand, turning a few times, until no longer hot but still warm, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, grill split side of bread until charred in places, 1 to 2 minutes; slice. Serve fish, vegetables, and vinaigrette over greens, with grilled bread.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH LEMONGRASS TOMATO SAUCE



Grilled Halibut with Lemongrass Tomato Sauce image

Categories     Tomato     Halibut     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Shallot     Lemongrass     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 small shallots, finely chopped (2 tablespoons)
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 lbs plum tomatoes, chopped
6 stalks fresh lemongrass, tough outer layers removed and lower 6 inches coarsely chopped
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
6 (1-inch-thick) pieces halibut steak with skin (6 oz each)

Steps:

  • Cook shallots and garlic in 1 tablespoon oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes, lemongrass, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil, stirring. Reduce heat and cook at a bare simmer, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes fall apart and form a chunky sauce, about 20 minutes.
  • Force sauce through a medium-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on and then discarding solids. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderate.
  • Brush fish on both sides with remaining 2 tablespoons oil, then season with salt and pepper. Grill fish, covered only if using gas grill, on lightly oiled rack, turning over once, until just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes total. Serve fish with sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm halibut fillets for the best results.
  • Marinate the halibut in olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before grilling to enhance the flavor.
  • Preheat your grill to a high temperature before cooking the halibut to get a nice sear on the outside.
  • Cook the halibut for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the grilled halibut with the olive sauce and your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a salad.

Conclusion:

Grilled halibut is a delicious and healthy seafood dish that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can cook halibut that is perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The olive sauce is a great complement to the halibut, and it adds a rich and savory flavor to the dish.
