BROILED HALIBUT WITH LEMON AND HERBS



Broiled halibut with lemon and herbs image

Here's a simple, flavorful preparation that works well with almost any fish. If you can't find halibut at the market, seek out another flaky white fish like sea bass, flounder, or cod. Try this recipe with lime, orange, or even grapefruit in place of the lemon for a flavorful change of pace. You can use 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh, minced thyme instead of the parsley or basil. Seek out rarer herb varieties too. You can also find them at ethnic markets if not at traditional grocery stores, or you can grow potted heirloom herbs on your patio or deck. Some lovely options that work well with fish: sorrel, chervil, shiso leaf (perilla), Thai basil, burnet, or borage.

Halibut with Lemon-Butter and Crispy Shallots image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Zest of 1 large lemon
1/2 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 large cloves garlic, smashed
4 halibut fillets (each 4 to 5 ounces)
1/2 cup grapeseed oil
2 large shallots, cut into rounds, separated into rings
Lemon wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the lemon butter: Whisk together the lemon juice, salt, pepper, lemon zest and butter in a deep medium bowl until well blended (mixture will be like a thick sauce). Set aside until ready to use.
  • For the halibut and crispy shallots: Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper and garlic in an 8-by-8-by-2-inch glass dish. Whisk the marinade to blend. Add the halibut and turn several times to coat evenly. Let stand 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Combine the grapeseed oil and shallots in a medium heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until the oil heats up and the shallots turn golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the shallots with a slotted spoon to several layers of paper towels to drain and crisp. Sprinkle with salt and pepper just before using.
  • Heat a large dry nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lift the halibut from the marinade, letting the excess drain off. Add the halibut to the hot skillet and sear 3 minutes. Turn the fish over using a flexible metal spatula. Sear until still slightly pink in the center, about 3 minutes longer, depending on thickness. Transfer the halibut to plates. Top with a generous dollop of lemon-butter and pile the shallots alongside or scatter around the fish. Garnish with the lemon wedges and serve.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH LEMON-HERB CRUST



Grilled Halibut With Lemon-Herb Crust image

I was looking for recipes to cook halibut seeing as I caught 2 from a deep sea fishing trip off of Vancouver Island. The first one I caught was 46 lb and the second one was 27 lb. I found this recipe from a Hellman's pamphlet. I made a couple of changes to suit our taste. We love doing halibut this way. The topping keeps the fish moist. We had our halibut cut into 1 lb. servings so we bbq it in one piece and then cut it into portions. The recipe says it serves 4 but my husband and I split it ourselves.

Provided by DeeDee

Categories     Halibut

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon lemon zest
salt & pepper
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine, melted
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 chopped green onion
1 chopped plum tomato
1 lb halibut fillet, about 1/2 inch thick, skin left on
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, parmesan, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
  • Add melted butter and toss with a fork to form a crumbly mixture.
  • In another small bowl, combine mayonnaise, green onion and tomato. (The recipe says to add 1 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon but I never have it so I omit it).
  • Arrange fish, skin side down, on a platter. Spread each fillet with mayonnaise mixture. Press crumbs mixture onto each fillet.
  • Preheat barbecue on high for 10 minutes. Reduce to medium-high and barbecue fish skin side down until fish flakes easily with a fork and topping is nicely brown - about 10-12 minutes.
  • Drizzle lemon juice over fillets and serve immediately.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH LEMON-BASIL VINAIGRETTE



Grilled Halibut with Lemon-Basil Vinaigrette image

An easy Grilled Halibut recipe with Lemon-Basil Vinaigrette

Categories     Fish     Low Carb     Low Fat     Low/No Sugar     Lemon     Basil     Halibut     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil (preferably extra-virgin)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
3 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil or 3 teaspoons dried
2 teaspoons drained capers
4 5- to 6-ounce halibut steaks (about 3/4 inch thick)

Steps:

  • Whisk lemon juice, olive oil, crushed garlic cloves and grated lemon peel in small bowl to blend. Stir in 2 tablespoons fresh basil and capers. Season vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 hour ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Season halibut steaks with salt and pepper. Brush fish with 1 tablespoon vinaigrette, dividing equally. Grill or broil halibut steaks until just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to plates. Rewhisk remaining vinaigrette; pour over fish. Garnish fish with remaining 1 tablespoon basil and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Halibut: Select fresh or frozen halibut fillets of uniform thickness for even cooking.
  • Thaw Frozen Halibut Properly: If using frozen halibut, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the Broiler: Ensure your broiler is preheated to high heat before cooking the halibut to achieve a perfectly browned and crispy crust.
  • Pat Dry the Halibut: Before seasoning and cooking, pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which helps in achieving a crispy exterior.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Season the halibut fillets liberally with salt, pepper, and any herbs or spices you desire for a flavorful dish.
  • Use Quality Olive Oil: Choose a good-quality extra virgin olive oil for brushing the halibut fillets. It adds a rich, nutty flavor and helps prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
  • Broil for the Right Amount of Time: Depending on the thickness of the fillets, broil the halibut for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Garnish and Serve Immediately: Once cooked, transfer the halibut fillets to a serving platter, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve immediately while hot.

Broiled halibut with lemon and herbs is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
