Grilled Halibut With Herb Salad And Meyer Lemon Green Olive Salsa Food

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH SUMMER SALSA

Steps:

• For the salsa: Combine all the vegetables in a bowl. Chop cilantro finely. Mix rice wine vinegar, sugar, salt, lime juice, and fish sauce together until well blended. Add all chopped vegetables and cilantro to the mixture. Mix well.
• For the halibut: Season with sea salt and pepper. Place the halibut directly onto a hot grill for a few minnutes. Then using tongs or a spatula give the halibut a quarter turn to create the second set of marks resulting in a crisscross pattern. When it's time to flip it, repeat the process of grilling for a few minutes and then give it a quarter turn. Remove from grill and finish in the oven.
• Assembly: Spoon a nice mound of salsa in the center of each plate, adding a bit of the salsa juice. Place the halibut fillet on top. Garnish with chili threads and microgreens. Add chili oil to edges of salsa for color and heat. Enjoy!

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH HERB SALAD AND MEYER LEMON-GREEN OLIVE SALSA

Steps:

• Place halibut in a baking dish large enough to lay fillets flat without overcrowding; season with zest, thyme, and chopped parsley. Cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Heat grill pan over high heat until very hot. Allow fillets to return to room temperature before cooking, about 15 minutes; just before cooking, toss fennel, fleur de sel, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a large bowl.
• Brush fish on both sides with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper; place on grill, and cook, rotating once 90 degrees, until nicely colored, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, and cook until it begins to flake and separate a little, being careful not to overcook the fish.
• Gently toss arugula and herbs with fennel; season with salt and pepper. Arrange salad on a serving platter, place fish on top, and spoon salsa over halibut. Serve with remaining salsa on the side.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH HERB SALAD AND MEYER LEMON-GREEN OLIVE SALSA

Steps:

• Season the fish with the lemon zest, thyme, and sliced parsley. Cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Remove the fish from the refrigerator 15 minutes before cooking, to let it come to room temperature.
• Light the grill 30 to 40 minutes before you're ready to cook.
• Just before you grill the fish, toss the sliced fennel with the fleur de sel, the super-good olive oil, and 1 tablespoon Meyer lemon juice in a large bowl.
• When the coals are broken down, red, and glowing, brush the fish with the regular extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the fish on the grill, and cook 2 to 3 minutes, rotating the fish once, until it's nicely colored on the first side. Turn the fish over, and cook a few more minutes, until it's almost cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the fish. When it's done, it will begin to flake and separate a little, but the center will still be slightly translucent. Remember, the halibut will continue to cook a bit more once you take it off the grill.
• While the fish is cooking, very gently toss the arugula and herbs with the fennel. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and taste. Arrange the salad on a large platter, place the fish on top, and spoon some of the Meyer lemon-green olive salsa over the halibut. Serve the remaining salsa on the side.
• Meyer Lemon-Green Olive Salsa
• Place the shallot, champagne vinegar, and a healthy pinch of salt in a small bowl, and let sit 5 minutes.
• Slice the stem and blossom ends from the Meyer lemons. Stand the lemons on one end, and cut them vertically into 1/8-inch slices. Stack the slices in small piles on a cutting board, and cut them lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks. Line up the matchsticks, and cut them into 1/8-inch cubes.
• Add the diced lemon to the shallot. Stir in the honey, olives, parsley, a pinch of pepper, and the olive oil. Taste for balance and seasoning.
• Note
• The halibut needs to be seasoned with lemon and herbs at least 4 hours ahead of time. You can pick the herbs and make the salsa a few hours ahead.

LEMON ROSEMARY MARINATED GRILLED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Whisk together the wine, lemon juice, olive oil and rosemary in a small shallow baking dish. Add the halibut and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning once. Preheat grill. Remove fish from marinade and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill the steaks for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or to desired doneness.

GRILLED HALIBUT STEAKS WITH POTATOES, OLIVES, AND ONIONS

Steps:

• In a pot, cover potatoes with 2 inches water; generously season with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; cook 8 minutes. Add onions; continue boiling until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife and onions are crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes more. Drain; let cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, peel onions.
• Preheat grill to medium-high. In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together vinegar, mustard, and 1/2 cup oil. Chop enough oregano to yield 3 tablespoons (from 2 to 3 sprigs) and stir into vinaigrette with olives; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, toss potatoes and onions with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Brush fish and remaining oregano sprigs with oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Brush grates with oil, add vegetables, and grill, turning a few times, 6 minutes. Add fish to grill and top with oregano. Cook fish and vegetables, turning fish once halfway through, until fish is just cooked and vegetables are charred in places and tender, 8 to 10 minutes more. Transfer to dish with vinaigrette, turning to evenly coat. Let stand, turning a few times, until no longer hot but still warm, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, grill split side of bread until charred in places, 1 to 2 minutes; slice. Serve fish, vegetables, and vinaigrette over greens, with grilled bread.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH LEMON-BASIL VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Whisk lemon juice, olive oil, crushed garlic cloves and grated lemon peel in small bowl to blend. Stir in 2 tablespoons fresh basil and capers. Season vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 hour ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Season halibut steaks with salt and pepper. Brush fish with 1 tablespoon vinaigrette, dividing equally. Grill or broil halibut steaks until just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to plates. Rewhisk remaining vinaigrette; pour over fish. Garnish fish with remaining 1 tablespoon basil and serve.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH OLIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or broiler to very hot.
• Press the pepper into the surface of the fish. Brush the fish with all but one tablespoon of the oil.
• Grill or broil the fish, turning it once, until it is just cooked, 6 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish and the heat of the grill or broiler.
• Meanwhile, combine the remaining oil with the olives, lemon juice and garlic. As soon as the fish is cooked, transfer it to a platter and spoon the olive mixture on top.
