Grilled Halibut With Hazelnut Crust Recipes

GRILLED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Preheat. Preheat your grill 375 degrees F.
• Prep the fish. Place the halibut fillet in a shallow baking dish. Combine all of the ingredients for the butter in a small bowl and pour over your halibut fillets.
• Season. Gently toss the fillet to ensure all sides are evenly coated in the butter. Season all sides with freshly cracked pepper and salt.
• Oil the grill. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil. Pinch the paper towel between tongs and wipe it on the grates of your grill to prevent the halibut from sticking while it grills.
• Grill the halibut. Place the seasoned halibut directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and grill for 5-7 minutes. Flip them, close the lid, and grill until the internal temperature of the halibut reads 145 degrees F. You want your fish to be opaque and just start to flake.
• Serve. Remove the grilled halibut from the grill. Serve hot with lemon wedges.

HERB CRUSTED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

• Rinse halibut fillets and pat dry with a paper towel.
• Place halibut fillets onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Generously spoon the herbed crumbs over the fish, and lightly press crumb mixture onto each fillet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crumb topping is lightly browned and fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH HAZELNUT CRUST RECIPE:

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 10x15-inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, add 1 egg white; beat lightly. Stir together the chopped hazelnuts, 1 tablespoon bread crumbs, parsley, pepper, salt, orange zest, and vermouth; set aside.
• Place remaining bread crumbs on a large plate suitable for dredging. In a shallow pan or pie plate, lightly beat remaining egg whites and milk together. Place halibut filets, one at a time, into egg whites to coat well, then press each side of the filets into bread crumb mixture to coat well.
• Lay prepared filets well apart on the prepared baking dish; crumble the hazelnut mixture over the top of each.
• In a small bowl, combine melted butter and white wine; drizzle over top of the filets.
• Preheat your barbecue grill.
• Cover barbecue with lid, open any vents, and grill the prepared halibut 8 to 12 minutes, uncovered, or until a meat thermometer registers an internal temperature of 140 degrees F (halibut will be slightly opaque in thickest part). Remember the halibut continues to cook after it is removed from the heat source.
• Approximately cooking times for halibut:
• 1/4 to 1/3-inch - 3 to 4 minutes
• 1/2 to 3/4-inch - 4 to 6 minutes
• 1 to 1 1/2-inch - 8 to 12 minutes
• Carefully remove halibut from pan and transfer onto individual serving plates. Serve with lemon wedges.
• Makes 4 servings.

HAZELNUT CRUSTED HALIBUT WITH GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. While the potatoes are boiling, mash the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon of salt into a smooth paste. Drain potatoes, then mash together with the garlic paste, butter, and pepper. Keep warm.
• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• While the potatoes are cooking, Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Pulse the hazelnuts and bread crumbs in a food processor until finely ground, but not ground into a paste. Pour onto a shallow dish. Season the halibut fillets on both sides with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently press one side of the halibut fillets into the nut mixture, and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Place the halibut fillets nut-side-up into the skillet; cook until the halibut begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the fillets over, and place into the preheated oven. Bake, nut-side-down until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it turns nut brown. Stir in the vegetable broth, and bring to a simmer.
• To serve, mound the potatoes onto the center of each dinner plate. Place a halibut fillet on top of the mashed potatoes nut-side-up, then drizzle with the browned butter sauce.

Steps:

• Add melted butter and toss with a fork to form a crumbly mixture.
• In another small bowl, combine mayonnaise, green onion and tomato. (The recipe says to add 1 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon but I never have it so I omit it).
• Arrange fish, skin side down, on a platter. Spread each fillet with mayonnaise mixture. Press crumbs mixture onto each fillet.
• Preheat barbecue on high for 10 minutes. Reduce to medium-high and barbecue fish skin side down until fish flakes easily with a fork and topping is nicely brown - about 10-12 minutes.
• Drizzle lemon juice over fillets and serve immediately.
