Grilled Halibut with Hazelnut-Raspberry Butter image

This is my version of recipe that was a much-requested menu offering from Seattle's popular restaurant, McCormick & Schmick's, throughout the 1990s.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 halibut steaks, each about 1-inch thick
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp onion powder
1/4 cup raspberries
4 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
2 tsp minced shallots
1/3 cup toasted hazelnuts, finely chopped
1 Tbsp lemon juice
12 fresh whole raspberries, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Remove halibut from refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to cooking.
  • 2. Coat grill grates with oil, then preheat grill (or oven broiler).
  • 3. Crush the 1/4 cup raspberries to a fine puree. If preferred, you can press the puree through a fine sieve to remove seeds.
  • 4. In a small bowl, thoroughly stir together the butter, shallots, hazelnuts, lemon juice and raspberry puree until well combined. Store butter in refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • 5. Coat each halibut steak with oil, then sprinkle a pinch or two of onion powder on each halibut fillet.
  • 6. Grill halibut for 4 to 5 minutes each side or until done. Remove halibut to individual serving plates, and top each serving with a heaping tablespoon (or so) of the flavored butter. Garnish servings with fresh raspberries, and serve immediately.
