Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground salt and pepper
2 (6-ounce) halibut fillets
Extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
2 slices prosciutto, cut into strips
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 teaspoons capers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley plus whole sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Put the flour on a deep plate or in a shallow bowl and season well with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish in the flour. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon oil and the butter and get the skillet hot. Add the fillets and cook until browned on 1 side, 2 to 3 minutes. At the same time, add the prosciutto and cook, stirring, to brown. Then flip the fish, put the skillet in the oven, and roast until the fish is just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the fish to 2 serving plates. Dump the prosciutto out onto paper towels to drain. Put the skillet back over medium heat. Add another tablespoon olive oil, the white wine, lemon juice, capers, the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the parsley and bring to a boil; boil until reduced and thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the fish, top with the prosciutto, and serve immediately.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup stale bread, torn and soaked in water
1 cup pine nuts
1 1/2 cups plus 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 lemons, zest removed and reserved, juiced
2 garlic cloves, finely diced
Kosher salt
4 (7-ounce) portions halibut fillet
1 head butter lettuce, washed and roughly cut into 1-inch strips
1 cup spring peas, blanched in salted boiling water for 1 minute

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • For the pine nut sauce: Drain the stale bread of any excess water but do not squeeze. In a blender combine bread, 1/2 cup pine nuts, 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon juice, 1/2 clove garlic, and 2 pinches salt. Place the blended mixture in a fry pan and hold over a low flame to warm.
  • For the bagna cauda: Over medium heat, warm 1 cup olive oil with the remaining 1 1/2 cloves garlic until just bubbling. Add the remaining 1/2 cup pine nuts and the reserved lemon zest. Remove from the heat and let stand.
  • Season the halibut fillets generously with salt and pat dry. In a large fry pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over a high flame until it begins to smoke. Momentarily remove the pan from the heat to avoid splattering and gently place fillets into the pan. Immediately return the pan to the heat and let cook for 1 1/2 minutes. Place the pan in the oven to continue cooking for 3 to 4 minutes. In the meantime, heat another large pan with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil until a drop of water sizzles. Add the butter lettuce, peas, and a pinch of salt. Fry quickly until wilted, about 2 minutes.
  • Distribute the vegetables evenly in the center of 4 plates. Ladle the pine nut sauce around. Remove the fish from the oven and carefully flip each fillet, golden side up, onto the center of the plate. Generously spoon the bagna cauda over the fish and around the plate.

Tips:

  • For a more flavorful dish, use a flavorful cooking oil such as olive oil or avocado oil.
  • To add a pop of color and freshness to the dish, use a variety of colorful vegetables such as cherry tomatoes, red bell peppers, or snap peas.
  • If you don't have pine nuts on hand, you can substitute another type of nut such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans.

Conclusion:

Pan-roasted halibut is a delicious and healthy meal that can be prepared in under 30 minutes. The fish is cooked to perfection and the wilted butter lettuce, fresh spring peas, and pine nuts add a delicious and flavorful touch.
