PEAS WITH HALIBUT



Peas With Halibut image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 pound bacon
1 to 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or butter
1 1/2 to 2 pounds halibut
Salt and pepper to taste
15 spring or pearl onions, trimmed and peeled, or 1 large white onion, chopped
1 pound small peas, fresh or frozen, or use fresh snap or snow peas, trimmed
2 cups chopped heart of romaine lettuce
1/2 cup chopped mint leaves

Steps:

  • If using bacon, cut it into 1/4-inch bits, and render it with 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high heat in a large skillet, which can later be covered. Stir until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, and reserve. If using olive oil or butter, put 3 tablespoons in skillet over medium high heat.
  • Brown fish in fat quickly, just a couple of minutes to a side, sprinkling it with salt and pepper as it browns. Remove, and set aside.
  • Add onions to pan, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add peas and lettuce, and cook, stirring, until glistening. Add a little more salt and pepper. Return fish to pan, simply resting it on top of peas-lettuce mixture. Turn heat to medium-low, cover, and cook gently until fish is done. (A thin-bladed knife inserted into its thickest part will meet little or no resistance.)
  • Remove fish to a platter. Stir bacon and mint into peas mixture. Taste, and adjust seasoning as necessary. Serve fish with vegetable mixture on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest halibut possible. Look for fish that is firm to the touch and has a mild, ocean-like smell.
  • Make sure the wasabi powder is fresh and of good quality. Old or stale wasabi powder will not have the same flavor or pungency.
  • Use a light hand when adding the wasabi powder to the crust. A little bit goes a long way, and you don't want to overpower the delicate flavor of the halibut.
  • Be careful not to overcook the halibut. It should be cooked until it is just opaque in the center, but still moist and flaky.
  • Serve the halibut immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include steamed vegetables, rice, or a light salad.

Conclusion:

This halibut recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this versatile fish. The wasabi-pea crust adds a unique and flavorful twist that is sure to please everyone at the table. Whether you are serving it for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal, this dish is sure to be a hit.
