HALIBUT AND SWEET POTATO CHOWDER



Halibut and Sweet Potato Chowder image

Spicy sausage, sweet potato, and saffron brighten up familiar halibut in this chowder. Prep and Cook Time: about 30 minutes. Notes: Choose dark red saffron threads (not orange or yellow). You may substitute saffron powder, but use only 1/8 teaspoon.

Provided by wp

Time 30m

Yield Makes 7 cups; 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 andouille sausages (6 to 8 oz. total)
1 onion (6 to 8 oz.)
1/4 teaspoon saffron threads (see notes)
3 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 sweet potato
1/4 cup whipping cream
salt
pepper
2 pounds halibut, boned and skinned
1 green onion

Steps:

  • Pour olive oil into a 4- to 6-quart pan over medium-high heat; add andouille sausages, sliced 1/4 inch thick, and stir often until beginning to brown. Add onion, peeled and chopped, and stir often until limp. Add saffron threads, chicken broth, and sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until sweet potato is barely tender when pierced, about 5 minutes. Stir in whipping cream and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Meanwhile, rinse halibut and pat dry; cut into 1-inch chunks. Lay chunks on top of soup, cover, and cook until halibut is opaque but still moist-looking in the center (cut a piece to check), about 10 minutes. Gently stir soup. Ladle into bowls and garnish with thinly sliced green onion.
  • Wine pairing: Arneis, a lively Italian white (the name means "little rascal"), is an almost perfect match for the halibut chowder, although a mineral-rich, aromatic dry Riesling works well too.

ROASTED HALIBUT AND POTATOES WITH ROSEMARY



Roasted Halibut and Potatoes With Rosemary image

This is a great method for roasting any type of firm-fleshed fish fillet. The seasoning mimics one often used for pork chops, and all the cooking is done in the oven, except for the initial boiling of the potatoes. The result ticks all the boxes - it is easy to prepare; it uses a minimum of pots and pans; and most important, it is utterly delicious.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     lunch, weekday, seafood, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes
Kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 (6- to 8-ounce) halibut fillets (or substitute other firm-fleshed white fish), about 1-inch thick
Black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon roughly chopped rosemary, plus 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary, for garnish
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon crushed fennel seeds (optional)
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Boil potatoes in well-salted water for 15 minutes, until tender. Rinse with cold water to cool, then cut each potato in half lengthwise.
  • Transfer potatoes to shallow roasting pan, or rimmed baking sheet large enough to hold potato halves in 1 layer.
  • Drizzle potatoes generously with 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil. Using your hands, massage the potatoes to coat with oil and turn potatoes cut-side up. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Roast potatoes, uncovered, until nicely browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • As potatoes cook, prepare the fish: Season fish fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with garlic, rosemary, red-pepper flakes and crushed fennel seeds, if using. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then rub seasoning into fillets.
  • When potatoes are brown, use a spatula to push them to the sides of baking dish, leaving room in the center for the fish. Lay fillets side by side in 1 layer. Roast fish until opaque and just cooked through, about 15 minutes. It should flake when pressed gently.
  • Transfer fish and potatoes to a warm platter or individual plates. In a small bowl, mix together parsley, lemon zest and finely chopped rosemary. Sprinkle parsley mixture over fish and potatoes. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose the right halibut. Look for halibut that is firm and white, with no brown spots.
  • Soak the halibut in milk. This will help to remove any fishy taste and make the halibut more tender.
  • Don't overcook the halibut. Halibut is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it just until it is cooked through. Otherwise, it will become tough and dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to the chowder.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of the chowder, so it is important to use a good quality broth that is full of flavor.
  • Season the chowder to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the chowder hot. Chowder is best served hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Halibut and sweet potato chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a halibut and sweet potato chowder that is sure to impress your family and friends.
