Apricot Glazed Halibut Recipes

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 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.

APRICOT-MUSTARD GLAZE

Steps:

• Combine the apricot jam, mustard, vinegar and lots of black pepper in the jam jar or a mason jar. Shake until well blended.
• Use the glaze like you would a BBQ sauce. Brush on or pour over pieces of grilled or pan-seared chicken, pork chop or salmon just before it's done cooking and let cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

APRICOT FISH

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. Grease broiler pan rack.
• Place fish on rack in broiler pan. Broil with tops about 4 inches from heat 4 minutes; turn. Broil about 4 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with fork.
• Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients; spoon onto fish. To grill: Brush grill rack with vegetable oil. Heat grill to medium heat. Place fish on grill rack. Cover and grill 5 to 6 inches from heat 10 to 20 minutes, turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork. Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients; spoon onto fish during last minute of cooking.

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:

• In a small bowl whisk the vinegar, honey, oil, and garlic.
• Arrange fish in an 8" sq baking dish and pour marinate over, coating completely.
• Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Preheat broiler.
• Line the bottom and sides of a baking sheet with foil. Spray the foil with nonstick oil.
• Remove fish, reserving the marinade, and arrange on baking sheet.
• Pour marinade into a small heavy saucepan and bring to a boil and then back to a simmer for about 15 mins., stirring often.
• While sauce is simmering, broil the fish until they are just cooked through and carmelized on top, about 12 minutes (Watch last few minutes that you're not too close to the broiler and fish is burning).
• In small pan, sauce will thicken similar to a steak sauce. Spoon off any excess oil if preferred.
• Transfer fillets to plates, drizzle sauce lightly on top just for presentation to keep the eye appeal of the carmelization and then spoon more sauce around the fish. Serve.
