Seared Halibut with Bacon and Bean Relish image

I decided to try a sort of hot bacon and bean relish by slicing beans thin and cooking them raw in hot bacon fat. I used a little lemon loved how this came out with the seared halibut.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (7 ounce) halibut steaks
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 ounces bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces
8 ounces fresh green beans, tips trimmed, sliced into 1/8-inch pieces
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Season halibut steaks generously with salt and black pepper. Refrigerate until needed.
  • Place bacon in a skillet and cook over medium heat. When bacon is about half cooked, 4 to 6 minutes, stir in beans and pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until bacon is crisp and beans are almost tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer bacon and beans to a bowl and return skillet with bacon drippings to the stove over medium-high heat.
  • When bacon drippings just begin to smoke, place 2 halibut steaks in the skillet; cook until browned and meat is just starting to pull away from the bone, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to a plate and repeat for remaining 2 steaks.
  • Remove skillet from heat and pour in water; bring to a boil while scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Return beans and bacon to the skillet and stir in lemon juice; cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon hot bean and bacon relish over halibut steaks and serve.
