West Coast Halibut Fish And Chips With Homemade Tartar Sauce Recipes

HALIBUT FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• CHIPS
• Peel and cut the potatoes into 1/4 by 1/4-inch thick fries. Place in a large bowl of cold water.
• Heat 2 inches of oil in a large, straight-sided pan or deep fryer to 325ºF. Drain the fries in batches on paper towels.
• Fry each batch for 3 to 4 minutes until pale blonde and remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
• Just before serving, increase the heat of the oil to 375ºF and fry the potatoes again, in batches, until golden brown. Remove to a sheet pan lined with paper towels and season with kosher salt.
• FRIED HALIBUT
• Preheat the oven to 200°F.
• Heat at least 2 inches of oil to 360ºF in a large skillet.
• In a shallow dish or pie plate, whisk together the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Dredge each piece of halibut in flour, shake off excess, then dip in the eggs, and finally coat evenly with panko.
• Fry the fish batches until golden brown on both sides. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven.
• Serve with chips and homemade tartar sauce.

FISH & CHIPS WITH HOMEMADE TARTAR

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Prick the potatoes all over with a fork and place them on a baking sheet. Bake until knife-tender, 30 to 45 minutes. (If you like, you can do this the night before and refrigerate the potatoes until ready to cut and fry.) Cut each potato into 6 or 8 wedges, depending on size.
• Heat about 4 inches of oil in a large, heavy pot until a deep-frying thermometer registers 375 degrees F. In two batches, fry the potato wedges until crispy and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt. Set aside and keep warm.
• In a large bowl, combine the 2 cups flour, cornstarch, baking powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Make a well in the center and add the egg yolks. Gradually whisk in the club soda, working your way out from the center to form a smooth batter.
• Season the 1 cup flour with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish fillets on both sides in the seasoned flour and then dip them in the batter. Fry a few pieces at a time until crispy and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
• When the fish is done, place some parsley leaves in the hot oil and fry until crispy and slightly translucent, 15 seconds. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve the fish with lemon halves, crispy fried parsley leaves and homemade tartar sauce.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, cornichons, capers, parsley, tarragon and lemon juice in a small bowl. Refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat nonstick or well-seasoned cast iron grill pan over medium high heat. Drizzle halibut pieces with oil, then season with crab boil seasoning, salt and pepper. Grill on a hot pan 4 or 5 minutes on each side.
• Place melted butter in a small dish and add juice of 1/2 lemon.
• Combine all ingredients for the tartar sauce in a small bowl.

• Heat shallot and oil in microwave safe covered dish for 30 seconds or in a small pan on the stovetop over medium low heat for 5 minutes. Allow oil to cool back to room temperature.
• Hold a spear of asparagus at each end and snap it. The spear breaks where the tender tops meet the tough bottoms. Line the broken spear up with the bundle of cleaned asparagus. Cut the spears using the guideline of the snapped spear. Par boil the asparagus tops in 1 inch simmering water covered for 3 to 5 minutes. Cool under cold running water and drain. Cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces on an angle and add to a bowl. Combine chopped, cooked asparagus with shredded endive, red bell pepper, cooked pasta, green peas and chopped parsley. The peas will defrost as you toss salad. Pour vinegar into a small bowl and whisk in cooled shallot oil. Pour dressing over salad and toss. Season salad with salt and pepper, to your taste and toss again.

CRISPY BAKED FISH WITH TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the upper part. In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, capers, pickles, herbs and Worcestershire sauce. Using a Microplane, finely grate the garlic into the bowl, then grate in the zest of the lemon. (Hold onto the lemon; you'll use the juice later.) Stir to combine and season the tartar sauce to taste with salt and lots of pepper.
• In a small bowl, stir together the panko and olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Pat the fish dry on all sides and season lightly all over with salt and pepper. Transfer to a lightly greased or foil-lined sheet pan. Coat the top with a thin layer of the tartar sauce (a scant tablespoon per fillet). Sprinkle the panko evenly on top (about 2 tablespoons per fillet), pressing gently to adhere.
• Bake the fish on the top rack until almost cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes for fillets between ½- and ¾-inch-thick (though you should check earlier, if using a thinner fish). An instant-read thermometer should read somewhere between 125 and 130 degrees when inserted into the thickest part of the fish.
• Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon juice from the lemon to the tartar sauce and cut the remaining lemon into 4 wedges for serving.
• When the fish is nearly cooked through, switch the oven to broil. Broil the fish on the top rack until the bread crumbs are golden and the fish flakes easily and registers 140 degrees in the thickest part, 2 to 3 minutes. Eat with a spoonful of tartar sauce, more black pepper and a squeeze of lemon. (Any extra tartar sauce will keep for up to a week in the fridge.)
