HALIBUT AND CORN SALAD WITH BROKEN VINAIGRETTE



Halibut and Corn Salad with Broken Vinaigrette image

Provided by Michael Chiarello : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 large vine-ripened tomatoes or 1 (12-ounce) can tomatoes
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Gray salt and freshly ground pepper
6 large ears corn, shucked
2 cup shelled lima beans, fava beans, or other fresh shelling beans
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon leaves
4 slices bacon, (2 tablespoons) cooked until very crisp, well drained, and minced
2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
6 tablespoons olive oil
4 halibut fillets, about 5 ounces each, or other firm-fleshed, meaty fish such as swordfish

Steps:

  • Core the tomatoes, cut into pieces, and place in a blender. Blend until pureed. Strain through a sieve into a bowl. You should have about 2 1/2 cups puree. If fresh tomatoes are not available use canned.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a non-reactive medium saucepan until hot. Add the garlic and saute briefly until light brown. Add the tomato puree and bring to a boil. Simmer gently about 5 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Discard the solids. Rinse out the saucepan, return the tomato juice to the pan, and bring to a boil. Simmer and strain twice more until the tomato juice is as thick as heavy cream, about 15 minutes total cooking time. Be sure to lower the heat as the mixture thickens to prevent scorching. You should have about 1/4 cup of very smooth tomato juice. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and taste for salt and pepper.
  • Pour 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into a small, clean glass bottle with a stopper and swirl to coat the inside. Coat the glass bottle with olive oil and the funnel before straining tomatoes so they don't stick. Strain the tomato juice into the bottle. Let it cool to room temperature. Add olive oil - mixture should be half olive oil and half tomato. Do not shake or mix!
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Blanche the corn and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside. Cook the beans in the same water just until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain. If using favas, peel them. When the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels from the cobs. Toss together in a bowl.;
  • In a clean jar with a lid, shake together minced tarragon, 2 tablespoons of the bacon, and 25 percent of Champagne vinegar and 75 percent olive oil. Pour enough of the dressing onto the corn and beans to coat, toss well, and taste for seasoning. Adjust with salt, pepper, and more dressing as necessary. Set aside to marinate for about 15 minutes.;
  • Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Put presentation side of the fish (non-skin side) in pan first as it gets the best caramelization. Cook until brown on the first side, about 3 minutes. When you see it getting opague around the edges, give it another minute and flip sides. Cook another minute on other side. Remove from pan and place on cookie sheet for a bit while you enjoy your appetizer with company. Just before you're ready to serve it, put it in a preheated 450 degree F oven for about 30 seconds.;

FAVA BEAN AND ASPARAGUS SALAD



Fava Bean and Asparagus Salad image

Thick-stemmed asparagus is best for this flavorful, intensely green salad; thin asparagus would be a bit wimpy. I weighed the asparagus after breaking off the ends. If you want to make this into a more substantial main dish salad, you can add a can of chickpeas to the mix.

Categories     salads and dressings

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds fava beans, shelled and skinned
1 pound trimmed asparagus, preferably fat spears
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, dill or tarragon
2 tablespoons minced chives
1 to 2 teaspoons lemon zest (to taste)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons red or white wine vinegar or sherry vinegar
Salt to taste
1 small garlic clove, minced or puréed, or 2 tablespoons minced shallots
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt
1 ounce Parmesan, shaved
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

Steps:

  • Blanch and skin the fava beans and place them in a bowl. Use the blanching water to blanch the asparagus, or steam the asparagus if you prefer. If blanching, bring the water in the pot to a boil, salt generously and add the asparagus spears. Blanch 1 to 4 minutes, depending on how thick the asparagus is; fat spears (recommended) will take up to 4 minutes, but thin ones are ready in 1 minute. You can steam the asparagus over 1 inch boiling water for the same amount of time if you prefer. Transfer the lightly cooked asparagus to a bowl of cold water, then drain and dry on paper towels. Cut into 1-inch lengths. Add to the bowl with the fava beans. Add the herbs, and the chickpeas if using.
  • Combine the lemon zest and juice, vinegar, garlic or shallots, and salt to taste in a bowl. Whisk in the oil and yogurt. Toss with the favas and asparagus. Add the shaved Parmesan, toss again and serve, or allow to marinate for 30 minutes, then serve.
