Embark on a culinary journey with Anthony Sedlak's Prosciutto-Wrapped Halibut with Puttanesca Sauce, a dish that tantalizes the taste buds with its harmonious blend of flavors and textures. The succulent halibut, encased in a savory prosciutto wrap, is perfectly cooked, retaining its delicate flakiness while absorbing the rich, salty essence of the prosciutto. Bathed in a vibrant Puttanesca sauce, a symphony of tangy tomatoes, briny capers, and aromatic olives, this dish is a veritable feast for the senses.
Accompanying this main course are two enticing recipes that complement the halibut: a refreshing Fennel and Orange Salad and a delectable Roasted Red Pepper and Goat Cheese Bruschetta. The salad, with its crisp fennel, zesty orange segments, and tangy dressing, provides a light and vibrant counterpoint to the richness of the halibut. The bruschetta, featuring creamy goat cheese, roasted red peppers, and a hint of garlic, offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures that will leave you craving more.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Sprinkle the halibut with some salt. Sear the halibut on both sides until lightly golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the halibut to the prepared baking sheet lined and bake in the oven until the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Return the skillet to medium-low heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cook the onions and garlic until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the anchovy paste, olives and capers to the skillet and stir to combine. Add the crushed tomatoes and crushed red pepper flakes and bring to a low simmer for 5 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until the wine cooks off slightly, about 2 minutes. Season with salt.
- To serve, spoon the sauce directly onto the plate and top with the halibut filets. Top with the basil and lemon zest.
Tips:
- To ensure that the halibut cooks evenly, it is important to use a fish that is of uniform thickness. If the halibut is too thick in some places and too thin in others, the thicker parts may not cook all the way through by the time the thinner parts are done.
- When wrapping the halibut in prosciutto, be sure to overlap the slices slightly. This will help to keep the prosciutto in place and prevent it from unraveling during cooking.
- To make sure that the prosciutto-wrapped halibut is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The fish should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- The puttanesca sauce is a great way to add flavor and complexity to the dish. Be sure to use high-quality ingredients, such as fresh tomatoes, olives, and capers.
- If you don't have time to make the puttanesca sauce from scratch, you can use a store-bought sauce. However, be sure to choose a sauce that is made with high-quality ingredients and has a good flavor.
Conclusion:
Anthony Sedlak's prosciutto-wrapped halibut with puttanesca sauce is a delicious and sophisticated dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The halibut is cooked to perfection and the prosciutto adds a salty, savory flavor. The puttanesca sauce is flavorful and complex, and it complements the halibut perfectly.
