GRILLED PACIFIC HALIBUT WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Finely dice the mango. Cut down the broad side of the mango, slightly off center, from the stem end to the tip end. The knife should scrape against the side of the pit. Repeat on the other side, cutting as close to the pit as possible. Cut the flesh from the sides of the pit, following the curve of the pit. Lay each half on your cutting surface, and score with the tip of your knife in a cross-hatch pattern, down to the skin but not through it. Turn the mango half inside out, and slice the cubes away from the skin. Then cut the cubes into very small dice.
• Toss the mango in a bowl with the chiles, cilantro, mint, jicama and lime juice. Season with salt if desired. Cover the bowl, and allow to sit for an hour while you prepare your grill.
• Heat a medium-hot grill (or heat an indoor griddle or grill pan). Season the halibut fillets or steaks with salt and pepper, and toss with the olive oil in a bowl. Place the fish directly over the coals, and grill for four to five minutes per side, depending on the thickness. The fish should be opaque all the way through, and you should be able to pull it apart with a fork.
• Remove the fish to a plate or a platter. Serve with the salsa spooned partially over the fish and partially on the side. Alternately, spoon the salsa onto plates and set the fish on top. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.

PAN-SEARED HALIBUT STEAKS WITH SNAP-PEA SAUCE AND GARNISH

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan that is 2/3 full of salted water to a boil. Add the snap peas and cook until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and immediately plunge the peas into cold water in order to halt the cooking. Cool, drain again and set the peas aside.
• In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat and add the shallots. Cook, stirring, until the shallots soften, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer shallots to the container of a blender. Add the stock, cream and 1/2 of the cooked peas and process until very smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pass the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing to push as much of the solids through the sieve as possible. Return the sauce to the pan and then set aside.
• Season the halibut with salt and pepper. Place a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the halibut in a single layer over high heat. Add the oil. When very hot, add the halibut fillets and cook, turning once, until they are just opaque in the middle, about 10 minutes. (Lower the heat if they seem to cook too quickly.)
• While the fish is cooking, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a small skillet set over medium heat and add the remaining snap peas. Cook, tossing, until just warmed through. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Rewarm the sauce, season it with salt and pepper and divide it among 4 plates. Top each plate with a halibut steak, squeeze a little lemon over each steak and arrange the snap peas around the steak. Serve immediately.
