Apricot Glazed Halibut Food

APRICOT-GLAZED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Set the oven to broil. Grease a broiler pan. Place the fish in a single layer on the broiler pan. Broil 4 inches from the heat for 4 minutes then carefully turn the fish over. Broil for 4 minutes longer or until the fish flakes easily. While the fish is cooking, combine the apricot preserves, vinegar, and parsley or tarragon. When the fish has cooked, spoon the apricot mixture over the top. Serve immediately. To grill the fish, cover and grill 5-6 inches over medium heat for 10 to 20 minutes, turning once, or until the fish flakes easily. Top with the apricot mixture before serving.

HALIBUT WITH APRICOT-ROSEMARY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place fish in a lightly sprayed (with cooking oil) shallow baking dish and set aside.
• In a small saucepan over medium-low heat stir together apricot preserves, garlic, orange peel, rosemary, salt and pepper until heated.
• Pour mixture over the fish and bake for 15 minutes or until the fish flakes with a fork.

HALIBUT WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk the vinegar, honey, oil, and garlic in a bowl. Arrange halibuts in an 8-inch square baking dish. Pour marinade over the fish, coating it completely. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Preheat the broiler. Line the bottom and sides of a baking sheet with foil. Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray. Remove fish from marinade, reserving marinade, and arrange the fillets atop the baking sheet. Pour the marinade into a heavy small saucepan. Broil the fillets until they are just cooked through and caramelized on top, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile bring the marinade to a boil and simmer until it thickens slightly and becomes syrupy, whisking often, about 15 minutes. Spoon off any excess oil from the sauce, if desired.
• Transfer the fillets to plates. Spoon the sauce over and around the fillets, and serve.

PAN SEARED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Wash fillet and towel dry of moisture.
• Mix cornstarch, seasoned salt, sugar. Coat the halibut with the mixture.
• In a saute pan that is oven safe heat olive oil and butter over medium high heat.
• Pan sear for 3 minutes on one side flip add shallots and bacon and baste with some of the butter/oil from the bottom of the pan. Sear for 3 more minutes. Continue basting with the oil/butter mixture. Transfer the pan to the oven and finish cooking for about another 6 to 8 minutes.

MISO GLAZED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Remove the fish from the refrigerator, and salt it lightly. Set aside while preparing the miso mixture.
• Combine the miso, mirin and sake in a small bowl, mixing until well combined.
• Pread the miso mixture on all sides of the fish (except the skin side) and set aside for 20 minutes at room temperature. If your kitchen is very warm (summer, heat wave), you could refrigerate for up to an hour.
• Preheat your broiler, setting the rack so that your fish will be about 3 inches below the heat source.
• When hot, broil the fish for 5-6 minutes, until the miso glaze is golden brown, and the fish is cooked through.
