Pan Seared Halibut With Black Bean Sauce Food

PAN SEARED HALIBUT RECIPE WITH LEMON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Use paper towels to pat the halibut fillets completely dry - this will ensure even browning. Season the fish on both sides with garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes.
• Add the fish fillets in a single layer (you can do it in batches if all the fish won't fit in a single layer). Sear, without moving, for 3-4 minutes, until the edges of the fish are opaque. Flip and cook for 2-4 minutes, until cooked through.
• Remove the fish from the pan and cover tightly with foil to keep warm.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the butter to the same pan. Wait for it to melt, then heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the butter is browned and smells nutty.TIP: If you like garlic, you can also use this lemon butter sauce recipe.
• Use the Zulay Kitchen Lemon Squeezer to squeeze all the juice from both halves of the lemon into the pan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and simmer for about 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until volume is reduced by half. The lemon butter sauce will still be thin.
• Drizzle a little lemon butter sauce over each serving plate. Place the pan seared halibut fillets over the sauce, then drizzle more sauce on top.

PAN FRIED HALIBUT STEAK WITH LIGHT GREEN SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse the halibut steaks and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper, then dust with flour.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the halibut steaks in the butter for 4 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
• Reduce the heat to medium, and stir the wine into the pan, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom. Mix in the lemon juice, then stir in the cream. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes or until it starts to thicken. Season with parsley, basil and capers, and stir for another minute. Serve halibut with sauce spooned over it. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.

PAN-SEARED HALIBUT WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk together black bean and garlic sauce, vinegar, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and water in a bowl. Pat fish dry with paper towels. Place remaining cornstarch in shallow dish. Coat fish with cornstarch, shaking to remove excess.
• Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add fish and cook until browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
• Add ginger and scallion whites to empty skillet and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add black bean mixture and simmer until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Pour sauce over fish and sprinkle with scallion greens and cilantro. Serve.

PAN-SEARED HALIBUT STEAKS WITH SNAP-PEA SAUCE AND GARNISH

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan that is 2/3 full of salted water to a boil. Add the snap peas and cook until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and immediately plunge the peas into cold water in order to halt the cooking. Cool, drain again and set the peas aside.
• In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat and add the shallots. Cook, stirring, until the shallots soften, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer shallots to the container of a blender. Add the stock, cream and 1/2 of the cooked peas and process until very smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pass the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing to push as much of the solids through the sieve as possible. Return the sauce to the pan and then set aside.
• Season the halibut with salt and pepper. Place a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the halibut in a single layer over high heat. Add the oil. When very hot, add the halibut fillets and cook, turning once, until they are just opaque in the middle, about 10 minutes. (Lower the heat if they seem to cook too quickly.)
• While the fish is cooking, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a small skillet set over medium heat and add the remaining snap peas. Cook, tossing, until just warmed through. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Rewarm the sauce, season it with salt and pepper and divide it among 4 plates. Top each plate with a halibut steak, squeeze a little lemon over each steak and arrange the snap peas around the steak. Serve immediately.

EASY PAN-FRIED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Combine butter, honey, lemon juice, soy sauce, pepper, and garlic in a small bowl.
• Portion halibut by cutting it into 3 or 4 pieces with a sharp knife. Set aside a little of the marinade and brush each side of the halibut with the remaining butter-honey mixture.
• Heat a skillet over high heat until it is sizzling hot - test by adding a drop of water to the skillet. If it sizzles and immediately evaporates when it hits the skillet, it is hot enough. Sear halibut for 90 seconds on each side. Reduce heat to medium and cook each side until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with reserved butter-honey marinade.
