Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Time 50m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 17

Vegetable oil cooking spray
1 (12-ounce) or 2 (6-ounce) center-cut halibut fillets, skinned
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 loaf ciabatta bread, ends trimmed, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, peeled and halved
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon capers, drained
Zest of 1 large lemon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups arugula

Steps:

  • For the fish: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a small baking sheet or glass baking dish with vegetable oil cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Season the halibut on both sides with the salt and pepper. Place on the baking sheet and drizzle with oil. Bake until the fish is cooked through and the flesh flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • For the bread: Preheat a grill pan or a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove some of the dough from the top half of the bread. Brush the cut-sides of the bread with olive oil. Grill the bread until golden, 1 to 2 minutes, and rub the cooked surface with the cut side of the garlic.
  • For the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, parsley, capers, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
  • Using a fork, flake the cooked fish and add to the filling. Mix until incorporated. Place the filling on the bottom half of the bread. Top with arugula. Add the top half of the bread and cut into 4 equal-sized sandwiches.

LEFTOVER HALIBUT SANDWICH RECIPE - (4/5)



Leftover Halibut Sandwich Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by JimMac

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 oz. cooked halibut - flaked by hand then lightly shredded with a fork
1 tbsp celery - finely chopped into little cubes
1 tsp green onion - finely chopped
1 large or 2 medium dill pickles, finely chopped
2 tbsp mayonnaise
salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
.

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix them well. Be sure to salt and pepper the spread to suit your taste. For those of you that are squeamish about mayonnaise I recommend blending one tablespoon into the mix at a time. Some folks add a tsp of cider vinegar and a dash or two of garlic powder as well. If you do not have green onions, you can use 1 tsp of any other onion variety or a shallot - just make sure they are finely diced. Serve on crackers or as a sandwich spread. Stays good in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

5 cups (1.25 L) canola oil
⅓ cup (75 g) roughly chopped Scotch bonnet chiles
¼ cup (50 g) roughly chopped bird's eye chiles
⅓ cup (75 g) roughly chopped jalapeño chiles
1 pound (480 g) unsalted butter
⅓ cup (50 g) ground cayenne
⅓ cup (50 g) smoked paprika
1 cup (150 g) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning the fish
6 eggs
2 cups (300 g) panko bread crumbs
1½ pounds (680 g) halibut fillets, cut into (4-ounce / 115 g) portions
6 potato rolls (preferably Martin's) or 12 slices slices white bread (preferably Japanese milk bread)
½ cup (120 ml) mayonnaise (preferably Duke's)
¾ cup (180 g) bread and butter pickles
6 slices American Kraft Singles
⅓ cup (120 g) sliced white onion

Steps:

  • In a large pot over high heat, combine 1 cup (240 ml) of the canola oil and the Scotch bonnet, bird's eye, and jalapeño chiles and cook until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 350°F (175°C). Turn off the heat and let steep for 30 minutes. Working in 2 batches, pour into a blender and blend until smooth. Pass through a fine chinois or strainer into a medium pot. Heat again, then add the butter, cayenne, and paprika and stir with a whisk. Set aside and keep warm.
  • In a large Dutch oven, heat the remaining 4 cups (800 ml) canola oil over medium-low heat to 320°F (160°C).
  • Mix the flour and salt in a medium bowl, whisk the eggs in another medium bowl, and put the panko in a third medium bowl. Dust a piece of fish in the flour, then dip in the eggs, then coat in the panko. Place on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining halibut.
  • Once the oil has come up to temperature, use a spider to carefully lower 2 pieces of the breaded halibut into the oil. Cook until golden and the internal temperature is 275°F (135°C), 4 to 6 minutes. Scoop out the fish and rest on a baking sheet with a rack set on it. Repeat with the remaining halibut and spoon the hot chile oil over it until the fish is covered and glossy.
  • Build your sandwiches: Lay out the bottom bread, mayo, then pickles, the halibut, followed by the cheese and onion slices. Slather mayo on the top bread and squish the sando down.

PAN-FRIED HALIBUT WITH SPICED CHICKPEA AND HERB SALAD



Pan-Fried Halibut With Spiced Chickpea and Herb Salad image

Fresh spinach, herbs and spring onions come together here in a salad with crispy chickpeas, which is served with halibut and a punchy yogurt sauce for a quick and delicious supper. The Persian lime powder is optional; it can be purchased ground, or you can start with a whole dried Persian lime, roughly crush it with the side of a knife and then grind to a fine powder in a spice grinder. This recipe doesn't really need anything alongside, but some good bread could easily bulk it up. Turn it into a great vegetarian salad by eliminating the fish and adding some extra chickpeas.

Categories     dinner, seafood, main course

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/3 cup/60 milliliters olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground Persian lime powder (optional)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 lemons (finely grate the zest to get 2 teaspoons, juice to get 2 tablespoons and cut the remaining into wedges)
4 skinless boneless halibut fillets, patted dry (about 1 pound/410 grams total)
1 can chickpeas (15.5 ounces/400 grams), drained and patted dry
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon/80 grams plain yogurt
1/4 packed cup/10 grams cilantro (coriander) leaves
2 packed tablespoons parsley leaves
4 spring onions, finely sliced
1 small bunch large-leaf spinach, firm stems removed, leaves finely sliced
1 or 2 mild green chiles, such as Anaheim, to taste, finely sliced and seeds removed if you like
Salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Marinate the fish and chickpeas: In a small bowl, mix the first 6 ingredients together with the lemon zest. Add 2 1/2 tablespoons of marinade to a bowl with the halibut and mix well. Add 2 tablespoons of the marinade to a separate bowl with the chickpeas and stir to combine. Set both aside at room temperature for 20 minutes. Mix the remaining marinade together with the yogurt and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, blend the herbs together with the spring onions, spinach, chiles, lemon juice and a good pinch of salt.
  • Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat, then add 1/2 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the chickpeas (and bits of garlic) and fry for 6 minutes, stirring every now and then until crisp and golden-brown. Transfer to a plate and wipe the pan clean.
  • Return the pan to a medium-high heat with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add the halibut fillets, spaced apart, and fry for 3 minutes on one side, then flip and fry for another 2 minutes on the other side until both sides are crisp and golden brown.
  • Very carefully transfer the fillets to a large platter. Toss the chickpeas gently with the salad, then transfer the salad to the platter next to the halibut fillets. Drizzle half of the yogurt over the salad and serve with the lemon wedges and the remaining yogurt sauce alongside.
