Hash Brown Crusted Halibut With Mango Mint Relish Recipes

POTATO-CRUSTED HALIBUT

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the olive oil, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, lemon zest, crushed red pepper flakes and fennel seeds. Bring to a boil then turn the heat off and let it sit for at least 1 hour. (*Big tip: This can be done ahead and used for LOTS of different things.)
• Using a mandoline, slice 1 potato extremely thin, (paper thin), in elongated rounds. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a clean, dry work surface. Arrange 3 potato slices in an overlapping vertical line pressing them together as you put them on the parchment. Repeat this process until you have a 4 by 6-inch overlapping potato rectangle that replicates fish scales. Brush the potato "scales" with the infused oil and sprinkle with salt. Season the halibut with salt. Lay the halibut fillet closer to 1 end of the potato rectangle than the other and then roll the fish up in the potato slices, using the parchment to help facilitate the rolling. Press to compact and really adhere the potatoes to the fish. Brush the outside of the potatoes with the infused oil to seal the potatoes and to prevent the potatoes from turning brown, this will also help make a nice tight "fish package". Reserve the fish in the refrigerator while preparing the remaining fillets. Refrigerate the fillets for at least 1 hour before cooking.
• To cook the fish:
• Add the infused olive oil to a large nonstick saute pan until the bottom is generously covered and bring the pan to a medium-high heat. Season the fish with salt and add to the pan. Cook the fish on both sides for 3 to 4 minutes frequently spooning the excess oil over the fish to "baste" it. The potatoes should be crispy golden brown and very well flavored and the fish will be succulent inside its crispy "scales". Transfer to serving plates and serve.
• This will make a fish lover out of anyone!

GRILLED PACIFIC HALIBUT WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Finely dice the mango. Cut down the broad side of the mango, slightly off center, from the stem end to the tip end. The knife should scrape against the side of the pit. Repeat on the other side, cutting as close to the pit as possible. Cut the flesh from the sides of the pit, following the curve of the pit. Lay each half on your cutting surface, and score with the tip of your knife in a cross-hatch pattern, down to the skin but not through it. Turn the mango half inside out, and slice the cubes away from the skin. Then cut the cubes into very small dice.
• Toss the mango in a bowl with the chiles, cilantro, mint, jicama and lime juice. Season with salt if desired. Cover the bowl, and allow to sit for an hour while you prepare your grill.
• Heat a medium-hot grill (or heat an indoor griddle or grill pan). Season the halibut fillets or steaks with salt and pepper, and toss with the olive oil in a bowl. Place the fish directly over the coals, and grill for four to five minutes per side, depending on the thickness. The fish should be opaque all the way through, and you should be able to pull it apart with a fork.
• Remove the fish to a plate or a platter. Serve with the salsa spooned partially over the fish and partially on the side. Alternately, spoon the salsa onto plates and set the fish on top. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.

MOROCCAN-STYLE HALIBUT WITH MANGO AND GOLDEN RAISIN RELISH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the relish ingredients. Set aside.
• In another small bowl, stir together the cumin, pepper, and coriander. Sprinkle over both sides of the fish. Using your fingertips, gently press the mixture so it adheres to the fish.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Place the fish in a single layer in the pan. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Transfer to a platter. Sprinkle the fish with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley. Spoon the relish over the fish.
• Fresh halibut, a good source of omega-3 fatty acids and potassium, may be more widely available in the spring. If you can't find it, try frozen halibut steaks or steaks or fillets from another firm white fish, such as cod or haddock.
