Dijon Crusted Halibut Food

DIJON & PARMESAN CRUSTED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Wash and pat dry the Halibut filets.
• Mix 1/4 C light Mayo, 1 Tbl Dijon, 1 Tbl lemon juice, 1/4 C breadcrumbs and 1.5 Tbl Parm.
• Spray olive oil in a 9X13 pan bottom.
• Place Halibut filet's into the pan. Spread mayo / dijon mixture on the top of the filet's.
• Melt the butter in a small bowl. (microwave) Mix in the balance of the bread crumbs and the parm, garlic and parsley into melted butter. Note - I used 4 Tbl of the butter, but upon double checking the recipe's I leveraged, they used substantially less. I bet you could easily get by on 2 tbl butter. Put the breadcrumb/herb/butter mixture on top of the fish - for an extra crispy topping.
• Bake the fish at 350 degrees for about 12 - 14 minutes. Then put oven on Broil (change the racks in the oven if needed) for a couple of minutes (4) until the top is nicely brown.
• (Note first time I made this - had about 1.25 lbs halibut and husband thought there was a smidge too much of the mayo / dijon mixture.).

ROASTED HALIBUT WITH WALNUT CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Mix walnuts, panko, and all herbs in small bowl; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brush each fish fillet with 1 tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place fish on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle panko-herb mixture atop fish, dividing equally and pressing to adhere. Roast fish until just opaque in center, about 8 minutes. If crisper topping desired, preheat broiler and broil fish about 1 minute, watching carefully to prevent burning. Transfer fish to plates; garnish with lemon wedges.

BAKED HALIBUT WITH DIJON

DIJON AND HERB PANKO-CRUSTED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Combine the panko crumbs with the parsley, fresh basil, lemon zest, minced garlic, olive oil, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Combine with your fingers until evenly mixed.
• Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the halibut fillet. Spoon the Dijon mustard on top of the halibut and spread evenly. Season the fish with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Press the panko mixture thickly on top of the mustard... the mustard will help the panko adhere.
• Heat the vegetable oil in an OVEN PROOF skillet or Dutch oven. When the oil is very hot, add the halibut fillet, skin side down, and sear for 3-4 minutes, without turning, to brown the skin.
• Transfer the pan to the hot oven for 15-20 minutes or until the thickest part of the halibut flakes easily. Remove from the oven and cover with a tin foil tent for 5 minutes. Serve the halibut with lemon wedges. Enjoy.
