ROASTED HALIBUT WITH LEMONS, OLIVES AND ROSEMARY



Roasted Halibut With Lemons, Olives and Rosemary image

Fish can be finicky dinner-party fare, especially for the distracted cook. Step away for a moment to sip your cocktail and your fillets might go from pearly to parched. This dish, though, inspired by one from Southern Italy, elegantly feeds a crowd. The fish, halibut, is seasoned with chile, salt and olive oil, then topped with rosemary, lemon and olives and roasted. It's a lighter main dish that won't leave anyone hungry.

Time 10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (8-ounce) halibut fillets, preferably at least 1-inch thick
1 1/2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, more to taste
Kosher salt
Ground chile pepper, preferably Turkish or Aleppo
2 rosemary branches
1 small lemon, very thinly sliced
1/4 cup sliced, pitted calamata or other good-quality black olives

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place fish in a baking dish, brush fillets with 1 teaspoon of oil and season with salt and chile pepper. Top each fillet with a rosemary branch and several slices of lemon. Drizzle remaining oil over lemon slices and sprinkle with additional salt. Scatter olives over fish and pan.
  • Bake until just opaque, about 10 minutes. If lemon slices have not browned or singed (this will depend on how thinly you slice them), place pan under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve drizzled with more olive oil; sprinkle with more salt and chili, if desired.

Provided by Tony Rosenfeld

Categories     Main Course

Yield four.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
2 Tbs. capers, rinsed and chopped
1-1/2 Tbs. chopped fresh oregano
1-1/2 tsp. balsamic vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1-1/2 lb. thick skinless halibut fillet (or other mild white fish, like cod), cut into 4 even pieces
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium cloves garlic, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 450°F. In a medium bowl, mix the tomatoes, capers, oregano, vinegar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Season the fish with 3/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper and dredge it in the flour, shaking off the excess. Heat the oil in a 12-inch (preferably nonstick) ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot. Add the fish, evenly spaced, and cook without touching until it browns and releases easily from the pan (check by gently lifting one of the corners), about 3 minutes. Flip the fish, sprinkle the garlic around it, and cook until the garlic just starts to brown on some edges, about 30 seconds. Pour the tomato mixture around the fish and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the fish is just firm to the touch and opaque when you pry open a thicker piece with a paring knife, 3 to 6 minutes. Let the fish rest for a couple of minutes and then serve with the tomato mixture spooned over it.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds heirloom tomatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
Four 6- to 8-ounce skin-on halibut fillets
6 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for grilling and drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces on-the-vine cherry or cocktail tomatoes
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 cup chopped chives
1/2 cup basil leaves, torn
Flaky salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  • Arrange the sliced tomatoes on a large platter and set aside. Pat the skin of the halibut dry with a paper towel and then brush the fillets all over with olive oil. Season the flesh generously with salt and pepper.
  • Oil the grill grates and put the cherry tomatoes and fish skin-side down on the grill. Cover and let cook until the tomatoes are charred and starting to split, about 5 minutes, depending on the ripeness of the tomatoes and the heat from your grill. Cook the halibut until just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer the fish skin-side down to the platter with the sliced tomatoes.
  • Put the cherry tomatoes in a blender, discarding the vine, and add the olive oil, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Blend until smooth, then stir in half the chives and basil. Spoon the tomato vinaigrette over the fish and tomatoes. Drizzle everything with some more olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining chives and basil. Finish with a sprinkle of flaky salt.

Roast Halibut With Fingerling Potatoes, Lemon, and Rosemary image

One of my favorite ways to cook halibut when it's in season! This is simple and tasty--I someimes slice a lemon and roast the slices along with the fish, but it's not really necessary. As with all fish dishes, the fresher the fish, the better.

Provided by Chuck Hughes

Categories     Halibut

Time 42m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup water
4 medium ripe tomatoes, quartered and seeded
1 large sprig tarragon, stemmed
2 shallots, peeled and sliced in rings
1/2 cup olive oil
1 pinch kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 (4 ounce) halibut fillets
coarse salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil, plus more as needed
handful baby greens, for garnish (optional)
arugula leaf, for garnish (optional)
1 shallot, finely julienned, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Special equipment:.
  • Hickory wood chips (about 2 handfuls), for smoking.
  • To make the vinaigrette:.
  • Prepare a wok smoker by laying 2 layers of foil in the bottom of a wok. Add in 2 handfuls of the hickory wood chips, and set the smoker over high heat. Pour in the water. Wash, quarter, and seed the tomatoes. Pop them into a bamboo steamer.
  • Arrange the tarragon and shallots around the tomatoes. Place the steamer onto your smoking wok and cover with lid or foil, and let the ingredients smoke for 20 minutes.
  • Transfer the tomato-shallot mixture to a big pitcher, and blend with an immersion blender or use a regular blender. Gradually, add the olive oil in a thin stream, as you are blending to achieve a nice consistency. Season with a pinch of salt and some freshly cracked black pepper.
  • To make the halibut:.
  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F. Liberally sprinkle your halibut fillets with coarse salt and fresh cracked black pepper.
  • Add just enough oil to coat the bottom of a pan, and set it over fairly high heat.
  • Add the halibut fillets to the hot pan, skin side down. Once the first side has browned nicely, about 3 to 4 minutes, flip them over and continue cooking for another 3 minutes. Then, slide the pan into the oven for about 5 minutes to finish cooking. The finished halibut should be firm to the touch and snowy white in color, but since it is a lean fish, it will dry out if overcooked.
  • Ladle a pool of the vinaigrette into the bottom of a deep plate, top with a piece of halibut and a few baby greens, if using. Alternatively, you could use arugula tossed with sliced shallots, as a garnish.

  • Make sure the vinaigrette is well-balanced: The smoked tomato vinaigrette is a key component of this dish, so it is important to make sure it is well-balanced. The vinaigrette should be tangy, smoky, and slightly sweet. Adjust the proportions of the ingredients to taste.
  • Serve the halibut immediately: Halibut is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the fish is hot and flaky, and the vinaigrette will be fresh and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This roast halibut with smoked tomato vinaigrette is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The halibut is cooked to perfection and the vinaigrette is tangy, smoky, and slightly sweet. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
