Best 6 Halibut With Roasted Vegetables And Spicy Cilantro Sauce Recipes

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH CILANTRO GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for high heat. Squeeze the juice from the lime wedges over fish fillets, then season them with salt and pepper.
• Grill fish fillets for about 5 minutes on each side, until browned and fish can be flaked with a fork. Remove to a warm serving plate.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic; cook and stir just until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the butter, remaining lime juice and cilantro. Serve fish with the cilantro butter sauce.

HALIBUT WITH CREAMY GARLIC AND HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a shallow baking dish.
• Rub the halibut fillets with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper. Place the fillets into the prepared baking dish, then press the cilantro leaves onto the top of the halibut. Bake the halibut in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the green onions, red bell pepper, garlic, and red pepper flakes until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in the white wine, and season with dill and tarragon. Simmer for 2 minutes, then add the chicken broth, half-and-half, Parmesan cheese, and remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice; season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then dissolve the flour into the water, and stir into the boiling sauce. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the halibut to serve.

SPICY HALIBUT

Steps:

• Mix together paprika, oregano, thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper in a small bowl; stir until well combined.
• Place halibut on a nonstick or vegetable spray-coated broiler pan. Brush melted butter onto top surfaces of halibut and sprinkle ½ teaspoon of seasoning mixture over the surface of each steak.
• Broil 10 minutes per inch of thickness, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
• Store remaining spice mixture in an airtight container for future use.

HALIBUT WITH SPICED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Cut whole onions into thin slices.
• Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a nonstick skillet until it is quite hot. Add onions, and saute over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to soften and take on color. When onions begin to dry out, stir in 2 tablespoons of the fish stock.
• Meanwhile, wash, trim, seed and cut the whole red and green peppers into thin slices, and add to onion. Cook, stirring, until peppers begin to soften.
• Grate ginger, and stir into peppers along with five-spice powder.
• Cut halibut into three pieces, discarding bone. Place halibut in pan, and cover with vegetables. Cover, and cook according to the Canadian rule: measure fish at thickest part and cook 8 to 10 minutes per inch.
• Meanwhile, trim, wash and chop cilantro and green onions, and saute them with pine nuts in the remaining olive oil in a small pot for about one minute.
• Add remaining fish stock and soy sauce to the pine nut mixture, and cook until slightly reduced.
• When fish is cooked, arrange vegetables on each of three plates; top with halibut, and spoon pine nut mixture over top of each.

• Set aside.
• Remove the fish from the marinade, scraping off the ginger and garlic and discarding any leftover marinade.
• Place in a baking pan or on a broiling pan and bake in a preheated 450-degree oven 12 minutes per inch of thickness, or until done.
• To finish sauce: Reheat wine reduction over medium heat.
• Slowly add pieces of cilantro butter, whisking until sauce is lightly thickened. Do not boil.
• Pour the sauce over the fish and serve.

SPICY CILANTRO SAUCE

Steps:

• Have ready a bowl of ice water. In a small saucepan of boiling water blanch cilantro and parsley 10 seconds and drain in a sieve. Refresh herbs in ice water and drain in sieve. Chop shallots and garlic.
• In a small nonstick skillet cook shallots, garlic, gingerroot, cumin, and red pepper flakes in 1 tablespoon water and oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until shallots are softened. In a blender purée shallot mixture, herbs, remaining 1/4 cup water, and soy sauce until smooth, about 1 minute, and season with salt and pepper. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring sauce to room temperature before serving.
• Just before serving, stir in lemon juice.
