Poached Halibut With Green Beans And Red Potatoes Recipes

POACHED HALIBUT WITH GREEN BEANS AND RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot with enough cold water to cover them by 2 inches.
• Add 2 teaspoons of the salt and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer until almost fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add the green beans and cook 5 minutes more, until just tender.
• Drain and set aside.
• In the same pot, melt the butter over low heat with the chives, 1/4 tsp of the salt, and 1/8 tsp of the pepper.
• Quarter the potatoes and return them to the pot with the green beans.
• Stir gently to combine.
• Season the fish with the remaining salt and pepper and place in a large skillet.
• Pour in just enough wine to reach halfway up the sides of the fish.
• Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
• Cook 6-8 minutes, covered, until the fish is opaque.
• Serve with the beans and potatoes.
• Spoon any extra chive butter on top of the fish.
• TIP: You can replace the halibut with any firm-fleshed white fish, like swordfish. The fillets should be 1 inch thick.
