Best 5 Halibut With Braised Sliced Artichokes And Lemons Recipes

HALIBUT WITH ARTICHOKE AND OLIVE CAPONATA

Steps:

• For the caponata: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the celery and artichoke hearts and cook until soft and the artichokes are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives, and raisins to the pan. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens, about 25 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, sugar, and capers and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• For the halibut: Place a nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. (If not using a nonstick grill pan, lightly oil the pan before grilling the fish. The halibut can also be roasted for 10 to 12 minutes in a pre-heated 400 degrees F oven.)
• Drizzle the halibut on both sides with olive oil. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill until the flesh flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• Arrange the halibut on a serving platter and top with the caponata. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.

HALIBUT WITH BRAISED, SLICED ARTICHOKES AND LEMONS

Steps:

• Cut 1 lemon in half, and squeeze into a bowl of cold water; add the rinds to the water. Squeeze 1/2 cup juice from 2 lemons; set juice and rinds aside. Cut the remaining lemon lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and set aside.
• Prepare the artichoke hearts: Working with 1 artichoke at a time, snap off tough outer leaves until half-green-half-yellow leaves are exposed. Using a chef's knife, cut off dark-green top until just pale part remains. Using a paring knife, peel dark-green layer from base and stem; trim stem. Scrape out purple leaves and fuzzy choke using a spoon, and discard. Halve artichoke lengthwise. Rub artichoke with reserved lemon rinds as you work. Cut artichoke heart into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and transfer to lemon water.
• Put onion, fennel, coriander seeds, reserved lemon juice and slices, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 cup water, and the olive oil into a large saute pan or deep pot. Drain artichokes, and add to pan; stir. Place a piece of parchment directly on mixture; cover pan with foil or lid. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and gently simmer, stirring occasionally, until artichokes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and uncover. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Season both sides of fish with salt. Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet over high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add 2 fillets. Reduce heat to medium-high, and cook fillets, without moving them, until bottoms are golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Carefully flip; cook until fish is opaque and flakes easily, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer each to a plate; tent with foil. Repeat with remaining tablespoon canola oil and 2 fillets. Spoon 1/2 cup artichoke mixture over each fillet. Garnish with basil.

HALIBUT IN ARTICHOKE AND TOMATO BROTH

Steps:

• Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the halibut and season with salt and pepper. Heat a grill pan over high heat. Cook the fish on the grill pan until just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side, depending on thickness.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook for 1 minute. Add the garlic and artichokes and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the white wine and stir, scraping the brown bits off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken broth, tomatoes and juice, thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
• Ladle the artichoke and tomato broth into shallow bowls. Top with the grilled halibut. Serve immediately.

ROASTED HALIBUT WITH BABY ARTICHOKES AND PARSLEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Remove skin from the halibut. Trim about an inch from each end. Cut each piece of trim in thirds and set aside. Tie the perimeter of the halibut with kitchen twine. Keep cool.
• In a large ovenproof pan, place the garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter. Add the halibut cubes, and saute over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the halibut filet, and brown for 5 minutes a side. Place the trimmings on top of the fillet, and put the pan in the oven for 15 minutes, basting occasionally. Remove the halibut, and set aside in a warm place for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the artichokes into thirds widthwise.
• Put the artichokes in a pan with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Salt and pepper to taste. Cook 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Keep warm.
• Combine the parsley, 5 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper in a blender. Chop until coarse. Set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan. When hot, add the bibb lettuce and spinach leaves. Cook briefly; then, add garlic cloves and the artichokes.
• In a small nonstick pan over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the capers and brown, about 1 minute.
• Add the lemon cubes and lemon juice to the halibut pan. Sprinkle the capers over the fish. Surround the fish with the artichoke slices, bibb lettuce and spinach. Slice the fish, and spoon parsley sauce on the side. Place in the oven briefly to warm. Serve immediately.

ROASTED HALIBUT WITH LEMONS, OLIVES AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place fish in a baking dish, brush fillets with 1 teaspoon of oil and season with salt and chile pepper. Top each fillet with a rosemary branch and several slices of lemon. Drizzle remaining oil over lemon slices and sprinkle with additional salt. Scatter olives over fish and pan.
• Bake until just opaque, about 10 minutes. If lemon slices have not browned or singed (this will depend on how thinly you slice them), place pan under broiler for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve drizzled with more olive oil; sprinkle with more salt and chili, if desired.
