- Combine all ingredients for the tartar sauce in a small bowl.
- Lightly toast buns on grill pan after fish is removed.

- Heat shallot and oil in microwave safe covered dish for 30 seconds or in a small pan on the stovetop over medium low heat for 5 minutes. Allow oil to cool back to room temperature.
- Hold a spear of asparagus at each end and snap it. The spear breaks where the tender tops meet the tough bottoms. Line the broken spear up with the bundle of cleaned asparagus. Cut the spears using the guideline of the snapped spear. Par boil the asparagus tops in 1 inch simmering water covered for 3 to 5 minutes. Cool under cold running water and drain. Cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces on an angle and add to a bowl. Combine chopped, cooked asparagus with shredded endive, red bell pepper, cooked pasta, green peas and chopped parsley. The peas will defrost as you toss salad. Pour vinegar into a small bowl and whisk in cooled shallot oil. Pour dressing over salad and toss. Season salad with salt and pepper, to your taste and toss again.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the halibut crab cake roulade: In a skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Saute the shallots until soft. Add the bell peppers and let soften a little. Toss with the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes. Mix in the panko, crab, Dijon and paprika. Sprinkle the halibut with salt and pepper. Top with the crab cake mix. Roll and secure with toothpicks. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 7 minutes.

This fresh dish is sure to please at your next dinner party! The red pepper flakes add a little kick, and toasted almonds add a delicious crunch. I like to serve this with orzo pasta or rice pilaf.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a shallow baking dish.
- Rub the halibut fillets with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper. Place the fillets into the prepared baking dish, then press the cilantro leaves onto the top of the halibut. Bake the halibut in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the green onions, red bell pepper, garlic, and red pepper flakes until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in the white wine, and season with dill and tarragon. Simmer for 2 minutes, then add the chicken broth, half-and-half, Parmesan cheese, and remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice; season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then dissolve the flour into the water, and stir into the boiling sauce. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the halibut to serve.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest halibut you can find. Look for fish that is firm to the touch and has a mild, slightly sweet smell.
- Crab sauce is a great way to add flavor and richness to halibut. Be sure to use fresh crab meat for the best results.
- Don't overcook the halibut. Halibut is a delicate fish that can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center.
- Serve halibut with your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and rice are all good options.
Conclusion:
Halibut with crab sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are a seasoned cook or a beginner, you are sure to enjoy this recipe.
