GREEK HALIBUT WITH LEMON FETA YOGURT SAUCE #RSC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a large bowl, mix thyme, oregano, dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, garlic and ½ teaspoon salt. Drizzle in olive oil and stir. Add zucchini, artichoke hearts, red bell pepper, onion to the olive oil mixture. Set aside for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a food processor combine feta cheese, Greek yogurt, cream and lemon juice and blend until smooth. Place in refrigerator.
• Place each piece of fish, skin side down, in the center of a piece of Reynolds Wrap about 18 inches long. Season fish with kosher salt. Gather the sides of the foil, add 1/4 of veggies to each packet, then spoon liquid evenly over the pieces of fish. Close each packet, leaving about 5" between the fish and the top of the foil for steam. Place foil packets on a large baking sheet in the oven and bake 12-17 minutes (depending on thickness of fish; check by removing from oven and carefully opening one of the packets and testing fish & veggies with a fork. If fish is not cooked through, reseal foil and continue to bake, checking every couple minutes.
• Open packets carefully and transfer fish and veggies using a spatula to plates. Spoon the liquid from each packet on top. Drizzle each with lemon feta yogurt sauce. Garnish with dill. Enjoy!

HALIBUT WITH LEMON-BUTTER AND CRISPY SHALLOTS

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.

GREEK MEATBALLS, FETA YOGURT SAUCE AND LEMON COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Sauce -- Mix the feta, yogurt, half and half, salt and pepper and lemon juice. Set to the side in a small bowl and refrigerate. Done!
• Couscous -- As I said takes literally 5 minutes to boil, stir in couscous and it's done. Don't worry about that until the dinner is done. Although you can put a pot on the stove with the broth, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper and put the couscous in a measuring cup on the side, just so it is all ready.
• Cucumber and Lemon -- Now I use a English (or seedless cucumber and just dice it up and set to the side (it's done). Same with slicing the lemon. One less thing to do at the end of the meal.
• Meatballs -- Simply in a large bowl, add the feta, milk, parsley, scallions, egg, oregano, salt and pepper. I mix everything well and then add the meat last. You don't want to over mix the meat as it can make it tough. Just mix enough to be combined. Roll into golf ball size meatballs.
• Saute -- Just heat up the olive oil in a large saute pan on medium high and cook them until golden brown. Remove to a plate while you make the sauce.
• Sauce -- In the same pan with the drippings from the meatballs, add the olives, garlic and red pepper and cook just a minute. then stir in the tomatoes, oregano and parsley and cook just another minute to heat up. Add the meatballs back in to finish cooking. They will take approximately 5-10 minutes depending on the size. Just keep them on a low simmer.
• Couscous -- As the meatballs finish, cook the couscous. Just bring the broth, lemon, olive oil and seasoning up to a boil. Add the couscous, stir and remove from the heat and cover. Use foil, a lid, saran wrap, a plate, or anything you have will work just fine. Just let it set for 5 minutes and it is done.
• Serve -- Use a fork to fluff the couscous and then just spoon some on your plate. Top with 2-3 of the meatballs and some of the tomato and olive sauce, and now the good part. Finish with a spoon of the yogurt sauce over the meatballs and some diced cucumber and then squeeze the lemon.
• And trust me -- now you have a totally amazing dish.
