Categories     Fish     Roast     Easter     Quick & Easy     Seafood     Halibut     Spring     Tarragon     Hazelnut     Butter     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup blanched hazelnuts
1 large bunch fresh tarragon
1 3-3 1/2-pounds skinless halibut fillet (halved lengthwise if very wide)
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
Lemon halves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread hazelnuts in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden, 8-10 minutes. Coarsely chop; set aside.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 300°F. Scatter tarragon sprigs on a large rimmed baking sheet. Place halibut on top, drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast until halibut is just opaque in the center, 20-30 minutes, depending on thickness of fish.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until butter foams, then browns (don't let it burn), about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; let brown butter cool slightly. Stir in lemon juice, hazelnuts, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve fish with hazelnut brown butter sauce and lemon halves.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest halibut you can find. This will ensure that your fish is moist and flavorful.
  • Make sure to pat the halibut dry before cooking. This will help the breadcrumbs adhere to the fish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the halibut. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the halibut until it is just cooked through. Overcooked halibut will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the halibut immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Halibut with Tarragon Lemon Breadcrumbs is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The halibut is moist and flavorful, and the breadcrumbs add a crispy, lemony crust. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
