Southwest Bronzed Halibut Prawns Recipes

ROASTED HALIBUT WITH SAFFRON-FENNEL BUTTER

Steps:

• Combine 1 tablespoon butter and the saffron in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave until the butter melts, about 1 minute. Let cool 5 minutes. Place the remaining butter and the fennel seeds in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Add the melted saffron butter, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and continue pulsing until the butter is bright yellow. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap and form into a 4-inch log; freeze until firm, about 20 minutes. (The saffron butter will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.)
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Toss the sliced fennel, garlic, the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons water in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons water and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cover with foil and bake until the fennel is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Toss the tomatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Scatter the tomatoes over the fennel. Set the halibut on top of the vegetables; drizzle with the juice of the remaining 1/2 lemon and season with salt and pepper.
• Bake, uncovered, until the halibut is firm and no longer translucent, about 12 minutes; remove from the oven and top each piece with a thin slice of saffron butter. Return the halibut to the oven and bake until the butter just begins to melt, about 2 more minutes. Serve with fennel fronds.

REGAL ALASKAN'S BLACKENED SHRIMP OR HALIBUT

Steps:

• This recipe is designed to feed however many people you want. Just adjust the amount of melted butter, blacken seasoning, and hollandaise to accommodate the number of servings you need.
• For Blacken Seasoning: Mix all ingredients in a bowl making sure to mix everything very well.
• For Cajun Hollandaise Sauce: Saute the ham and shrimp in butter until the shrimp is cooked thoroughly.
• Add the blacken seasoning to taste and allow the mixture to cool.
• After the ham and shrimp mixture has cooled, fold together the shrimp/ham mixture, diced tomato, green onion, and hollandaise sauce.
• For the Blackened Shrimp or Halibut: For this recipe it is best to use a cast iron skillet or griddle on a bbq grill or an outdoor propane cooker, I prefer a large cast iron skillet and a propane cooker.
• For shrimp: peel, de-vein, and butterfly the shrimp.
• For halibut: cut halibut filets to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness.
• Heat cast iron skillet to 700 degrees (the skillet will smoke and the bottom will start to turn white) Dredge butterflied shrimp, or halibut filets, in butter then coat one side with blacken seasoning.
• Place shrimp (or halibut) seasoning side down in the skillet and coat the other side with blacken seasoning.
• Cook for 2 1/2 minutes and then turn the shrimp (or halibut) and cook until desired doneness (usually only takes about another minute or two) Serve shrimp on a pool of Cajun Hollandaise Sauce, reserving enough sauce to dip shrimp into.
• This recipe will also work for cooking steaks or thicker pieces of halibut but you need to cook as above and then finish in the oven.
• WARNING: You will create a large amount of smoke when using this cooking method.
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THIS METHOD INSIDE YOUR HOUSE OR GARAGE!
• (Unless you wish to invite your local fire department to join you for dinner.) WARNING Number 2: Cooking shrimp or halibut using this method has been known to be extremely addictive once you have tasted the results.
