Halibut With Endive And Gremolata Recipes

SKIRT STEAK WITH GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Smash the garlic, sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt and work into a coarse paste using the side of a large knife. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in the parsley, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, and pepper flakes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly rub the steak on both sides with oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Put the steaks in the skillet and cook, turning once, until well browned on the outside and medium-rare on the inside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.
• Thinly slice the steaks against the grain and divide among 4 plates. Top with the gremolata and serve with rice or potatoes.

SEARED HALIBUT WITH ARUGULA GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place squashes, potatoes, and shallots on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast 15 minutes. Add mushrooms and toss to coat. Roast until vegetables are tender and golden, about 15 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, combine arugula, parsley, pine nuts, lemon zest and juice, and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Heat safflower oil in a cast-iron or other large ovenproof heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Season halibut with salt and cook, undisturbed, 3 minutes. Transfer to oven, and then continue cooking until fish is opaque throughout, about 7 minutes. Serve fish with roasted vegetables and gremolata.

GRILLED HALIBUT STEAKS ON A BED OF ARUGULA WITH TOMATO SALAD AND GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Make the tomato salad: In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients and set aside.
• Make the gremolata: Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix. Set aside.
• Make the halibut: Place the olive oil and lemon juice in a large baking dish (or you can use a re-sealable baggie). Rinse the fish and pat it dry, season with the salt and pepper. Place the fish in the dish or re-sealable baggie, turning once to coat with the marinade. Let the fish marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature.
• Scatter the clean arugula on a 19-inch round or oval platter. Grill the fish over a medium hot fire for 5 to 6 minutes per side, until the flesh is opaque through to the center. When finished grilling, remove the hot fish immediately to the platter of arugula. Top with the tomato mixture, and sprinkle the gremolata over the top of the tomatoes. Serve immediately.

HALIBUT WITH CLEMENTINE GREMOLATA

Steps:

• For gremolata:
• Using vegetable peeler, remove peel (orange part only) of clementines. Chop peel (reserve flesh for another use). Combine chopped clementine peel, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and sea salt in small bowl. Stir in extra-virgin olive oil and set gremolata aside. DO AHEAD: Gremolata can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
• For fish:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Using vegetable peeler, remove peel of clementine in four 2-inch-long strips (orange part only). Cut four 12-inch squares parchment paper. Place halibut fillet in center of each parchment paper square. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Drizzle halibut lightly with olive oil. Place 1 clementine peel strip, cut side up, on each halibut fillet. Bring 2 edges of parchment paper together along long side of fish fillet and fold parchment edges together 3 to 4 times. Tuck both remaining edges of parchment underneath fillet to create packet and place parchment packet on rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with remaining fish fillets. DO AHEAD: Halibut packets can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill on rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake fish just until opaque in center, about 18 minutes (to check doneness, unwrap packet and insert fork in fillet). Remove rimmed baking sheet from oven. Unwrap fish. Place halibut fillets on plates, spoon gremolata over, and serve.
