Lemon Thyme Crusted Halibut With Orange And Tarragon Emulsion Recipes

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH LEMON-HERB CRUST

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, parmesan, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
• 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.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH LEMON TARRAGON MUSTARD

Steps:

• In a small bowl whisk together the lemon juice, zest, mustard, tarragon, and chives or scallions, then gradually whisk in the olive oil until well incorporated to make the marinade; season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Place fish steaks in a Ziplock bag (or use a large shallow non-reactive dish w/ cover), then add the marinade, close the bag securely, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
• Prepare your barbecue or grill pan to medium temperature.
• Grill the fish about 3 inches from the coals, or in the grill pan, for 5 to 7 minutes on each side or to desired doneness.
• Transfer steaks to a serving platter, garnish with lemon slices and tarragon, and serve immediately.
• Goes nicely with a rice salad!
• Note: you can also use this recipe with salmon steaks or fillets.

HALIBUT WITH TARRAGON-LEMON BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat, add garlic, and saute 1 minute. Add breadcrumbs, tarragon, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Stir well.
• Place halibut on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Combine mayonnaise and horseradish; spread over each fillet. Top with crumbs, patting lightly to help them adhere. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until fish is tender and crumbs are golden.

HALIBUT IN CHARD LEAVES WITH LEMON-THYME BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Blend butter, fresh lemon juice, chopped fresh thyme, chopped fresh chives, and grated lemon peel in small bowl; season butter to taste with salt and pepper.
• Place four 12-inch squares of foil on work surface. Overlap center edge of 2 chard halves on each square. Sprinkle fillets on each side with salt and pepper, then spread with some lemon-thyme butter. Top each with lemon slice. Place 1 fillet crosswise on widest part of chard. Fold bottom of leaf over fillet, then continue to roll up (sides will be open). Enclose each wrapped fillet in foil. Arrange packets on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until fish is just opaque in center, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer packets to plates, open foil, and serve.
