Asian Inspired Halibut Recipes

ASIAN-INSPIRED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Using a very sharp knife, cut the halibut into 1-inch cubes; set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine the celery, carrots, orange juice and ginger. Bring to a boil, then stir in the halibut.
• Cover and cook over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and is opaque all the way through. Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the halibut to a plate, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, strain the can of pineapple tidbits; reserving 2 tablespoons of the juice. In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice, cornstarch, soy sauce, vinegar and honey. Stir into the vegetable mixture in the saucepan.
• Cook and stir until the mixture thickens and begins to gently boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
• Return the halibut to the pan and add the fruit. Cover and cook about 1 minute or until heated through.

ASIAN GRILLED HALIBUT

• Combine dressing and onions. Reserve 1/4 cup dressing mixture for later use.
• Pour remaining dressing mixture over fish in shallow dish; turn to evenly coat both sides of each fillets with dressing mixture.

• Heat greased grill to medium heat. Remove fish from marinade; discard marinade.
• Grill fish 6 to 7 min. on each side or until fish flakes easily with fork, brushing occasionally with reserved dressing mixture.
