HALIBUT WITH BROWN BUTTER, LEMON AND SAGE



Halibut With Brown Butter, Lemon and Sage image

This is a simple method for cooking firm, white-fleshed fish on the stovetop from start to finish. If halibut is not available, use thick flounder fillets, snapper, grouper or large sea scallops. The flavor of sage permeates the quick, easy pan sauce and the buttery bread crumbs provide crunchy texture.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, seafood, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

About 1 1/2 pounds halibut fillets (or other firm white-fleshed fish), cut into 4 pieces
Salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
12 to 15 fresh sage leaves
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup coarse homemade bread crumbs, toasted
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Season fish on both sides with plenty of salt and pepper.
  • Pour oil into a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast iron or nonstick) and set over medium-high heat. When oil is hot (but not smoking), swirl to evenly coat the pan, then add fish in a single layer. Let cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes, until first side is nicely browned. Adjust the heat as needed to produce a steady sizzle and prevent scorching.
  • Flip and cook fish for about another 3 minutes, until just done. (To test for doneness, use a fork to gently probe the flesh: it should flake easily.) Transfer cooked fish to a warm platter or serving plates.
  • Make the sauce: Place skillet back on the stove over medium-high heat. Add butter and sage leaves. Cook butter, swirling the pan, until foamy and just beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice.
  • Spoon butter sauce and sage leaves over fish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and parsley. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges.

Tips for Making the Best Sage Garlic Brown Butter:

  • Use unsalted butter: This allows you to control the amount of salt in the dish, and prevents the sauce from becoming too salty.
  • Clarify the butter: This removes the milk solids from the butter, resulting in a nutty-flavored, golden-brown butter that won't burn as easily.
  • Use fresh sage: Fresh sage has a more intense flavor than dried sage, and will give the sauce a brighter, more vibrant flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're browning the butter and sage, don't overcrowd the pan, or the butter will not brown evenly and the sage will not crisp up.
  • Add the garlic at the end: Garlic burns easily, so add it to the pan at the very end of the cooking process, just long enough to infuse the butter with its flavor.
  • Season to taste: Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.

Conclusion:

Sage garlic brown butter is a versatile sauce that can be used to enhance the flavor of a variety of dishes. It is a quick and easy sauce to make, and it adds a delicious nutty, earthy flavor to any dish. Whether you're using it to drizzle over pasta, chicken, fish, or vegetables, sage garlic brown butter is sure to impress your taste buds.
