Provided by Amy Finley

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 stick plus 2 tablespoons butter
6 slices stale white sandwich bread, crusts removed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 (6-ounce) pieces halibut (preferably Pacific)
1 to 2 tablespoons capers (depending on taste)
1 large lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • In a medium saute pan over medium-high heat, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter. When the foam subsides, fry the cubes of bread until golden and crusty, about 4 to 7 minutes. Remove the croutons from the pan with a slotted spatula and set aside on paper towels to drain. Wipe out the pan.
  • Place the flour on a plate and season well with salt and pepper. Dredge the halibut in the flour and shake off excess.
  • Return the saute pan to the heat and melt 4 more tablespoons of butter. When the foam has subsided add the fish to the pan. Cook, turning once, until the fish is no longer translucent in the center, flakes easily, and is golden brown on both sides, about 4 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a serving platter and wipe out the pan.
  • Melt the additional 2 tablespoons of butter, and when the foam subsides add the capers and croutons. Saute briefly, then add the lemon juice and parsley and swirl to combine. Pour over the fish on the serving dish and serve immediately.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lemons
3 1/2 cups homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
3 garlic cloves
8 sprigs fresh thyme
10 whole black peppercorns
4 halibut fillets (6 ounces each), without skin
Coarse salt
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Using a vegetable peeler, remove zest in strips from 2 lemons. Juice zested lemons. Transfer zest and juice to a 12-inch straight-sided skillet with a tight-fitting lid. Add stock, garlic, 4 sprigs thyme, and the peppercorns to the pan. Bring to a boil.
  • Season each fillet on both sides with salt; carefully add to skillet. Cover skillet, and turn off the heat. Let stand until fish is opaque and firm to the touch, 9 to 12 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer fish to a platter; tent loosely with foil to keep warm.
  • Pour poaching liquid through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a bowl; discard solids. Return to skillet. Bring to a boil; turn off heat.
  • Divide broth among wide bowls; gently place a fish fillet in each. Cut remaining lemon into wedges. Garnish each serving with a wedge of lemon and a sprig of thyme, and lightly drizzle with oil.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, plump halibut fillets that are white or light pink in color.
  • Use fresh chard leaves that are dark green and tender.
  • If you don't have a steamer, you can cook the halibut and chard in a skillet over medium heat, covered, for about 10 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through.
  • To make the lemon thyme butter, simply combine the butter, lemon juice, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl.
  • Serve the halibut and chard immediately with the lemon thyme butter.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Halibut in Chard Leaves with Lemon Thyme Butter is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile fish. The chard leaves add a pop of color and nutrients, while the lemon thyme butter adds a bright and flavorful sauce.
