Categories     Entree

Number Of Ingredients 13

Zest of 2 lemons
Juice of 2 lemons
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoon freshly minced garlic
2 teaspoon dill weed
1 teaspoon seasoned salt, (more for later)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1 pound fresh green beans
1 pound cherry tomatoes
1 large yellow onion, (sliced into half moons)
1 1/2 pound halibut fillet, (slice into 1 1/2-inch pieces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the sauce ingredients together. Add the green beans, tomatoes, and onions and toss to coat with the sauce. With a large slotted spoon or spatula, transfer the vegetables to a large baking sheet (21 x 15 x 1 inch baking sheet, for example). Keep the vegetables to one side or one half of the baking sheet and make sure they are spread out in one layer.
  • Now, add the halibut fillet strips to the remaining sauce, toss to coat. Transfer the halibut fillet to the baking sheet next to the vegetables and pour any remaining sauce on top.
  • Lightly sprinkle the halibut and vegetables with a little more seasoned salt.
  • Bake in 425 degrees F heated oven for 15 minutes. Then transfer the baking sheet to the top oven rack and broil for another 3 minutes or so, watching carefully. The cherry tomatoes should begin to pop under the broiler.
  • When ready, remove the baked halibut and vegetables from the oven. Serve immediately.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds grouper, halibut or snapper, cut in six 4-ounce portions of equal thickness
Salt and pepper
2 bunches cilantro
2 garlic cloves, smashed to a paste
1 serrano chile, very finely chopped, or to taste
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted and coarsely ground
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, toasted and ground, plus 1/2 teaspoon whole seeds
2 tablespoons paprika
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons butter
3 large onions, sliced 1/4-inch thick (about 4 cups)
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
Pinch cayenne
1 preserved lemon, finely diced
1 cup green or black olives, with pits

Steps:

  • Season fish fillets lightly with salt and pepper and set aside. Wash cilantro and pat dry. Reserve a few cilantro sprigs for garnish, then roughly chop leaves and tender stems and put in a medium bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, the garlic, the chile, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, the paprika, 1/2 cup olive oil and the lime juice. Stir mixture together.
  • Pour cilantro sauce over fish fillets, reserving 4 tablespoons of the sauce for serving. Coat both sides of fish with the mixture. Cover and leave at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate for up to several hours.
  • Meanwhile, put butter and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a wide skillet over high heat. Add sliced onions and season generously with salt and pepper. Add remaining ground cumin and ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon whole coriander seeds, the turmeric and the cayenne. Stir to coat. When onions begin to soften, turn heat to medium. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, until onions are soft and begin to brown. Stir in preserved lemon and olives. Cool to room temperature. (The onions may be cooked in advance.)
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Spread onions in a low baking dish. Arrange marinated fish fillets over onions in a single layer. Bake on top rack until fish is just done, 10 to 15 minutes. To serve, smear a little reserved cilantro sauce over each fillet, and give each guest a large spoonful of the onions. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.

BAKED HALIBUT WITH TOMATO CAPER SAUCE



Baked Halibut With Tomato Caper Sauce image

This is a pungent tomato sauce that I learned to make in Provence. It goes well with any type of robust fish.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, sauces and gravies, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
4 plump garlic cloves, minced or mashed in a mortar and pestle
1/4 cup capers, drained, rinsed and finely chopped or mashed with the garlic in a mortar and pestle
2 pounds tomatoes, peeled, seeded and finely chopped, or 1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes with juice
Salt, preferably kosher salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
Pinch of sugar
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon slivered fresh basil leaves
1 recipe tomato-caper sauce, above
6 6-ounce halibut fillets (Choose Pacific halibut over Atlantic halibut. According to the Environmental Defense Fund and the Blue Ocean Institute, Pacific halibut fisheries have been properly managed, but they are overfished in the Atlantic.)
Salt, preferably kosher salt
freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
6 lemon slices

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, three to five minutes, and add the garlic and the capers. Cook, stirring, for three to five minutes, until the onion has softened thoroughly and the mixture is fragrant. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar. Stir in the thyme, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring often, for 15 to 20 minutes, until the sauce is thick and fragrant. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve hot or cold.
  • Make the sauce as directed and keep warm.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Oil a baking dish large enough for the fish to lie flat. Season the fish with salt and pepper, and arrange in the baking dish. Drizzle the olive oil over the fillets, and place a round of lemon on each one. Cover the dish tightly with foil, and place in the oven. Bake 15 minutes. Check the fish; if you can cut into it with a fork, it is done. If it doesn't yield, (halibut fillets tend to be thick can take time to cook), cover and return to the oven for five minutes. Remove from the oven, and check again. Remove the lemon slices from the fish.
  • Place a spoonful of sauce on each plate, and place a piece of fish partially on top. Spoon some of the liquid from the baking dish over the fish. If you wish, top the fish with another spoonful of sauce, garnish with basil leaves and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest halibut possible. Fresh halibut should have a firm, white flesh with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Avoid fish that is discolored or has an off smell.
  • Soak the halibut in milk for 30 minutes before baking. This will help to remove any fishy taste and make the fish more tender.
  • Season the halibut liberally with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Bake the halibut at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will help to keep the fish moist and prevent it from overcooking.
  • Serve the halibut immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for halibut include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Baked halibut is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy dinner, give baked halibut a try!
