Macadamia Crusted Halibut With Mango Cream Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine macadamia nuts, bread crumbs, 1 teaspoon olive oil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Process until smooth. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine mango, cream, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened.
• Season fish with salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and crushed garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the sea bass on both sides, and remove from heat.
• Transfer fish to preheated oven, and roast until cooked through. Cover the sea bass with macadamia crust, and return to the oven until crust browns. Top with the mango cream sauce.

Steps:

• Lay the 4 pieces of halibut on a clean work surface. Season each piece with the salt, pepper, and cayenne. Using a brush, quickly spread a thin layer of the egg whites on top of the fish and then sprinkle over the chopped macadamia nuts. Press the nuts into the fish to secure. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a large saute pan coated with the oil to medium heat. Place 2 pieces (or 4 if the pan is big enough) of the fish, macadamia side-down, in the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes, until the macadamias are golden brown. Flip the fish and cook for another 3 minutes. Repeat the process with the 2 remaining pieces of fish. Place all 4 pieces of fish in a baking dish and cook in the oven for another 8 to 10 minutes.
• Form the Rice into a small flat disk in the center of the plate. Spoon some of the Salsa on top of the rice. Lean the fish against the rice and drizzle the sauce around the plate. Place the Asparagus against the fish and garnish with the Garlic Chips.
• In a large bowl filled with water, soak the rice for 24 hours in the refrigerator. Fit a colander or steamer lined with leaves (lotus, banana, Napa) inside of a large stockpot filled with water and add the rice to the colander. Make sure that the water is not touching the colander. Steam the rice for about 25 to 30 minutes. When the rice is soft, remove it from the colander and place it into a large mixing bowl. Add the coconut flakes and milk to the rice and season with the salt, pepper, and sugar. Set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, add the pineapple, mango, papaya, jalapeno, lime juice, and red onion. Toss gently and season with salt and pepper.
• Prepare a saute pan over medium heat. Sweat the shallots, garlic, and 1 tablespoon of the butter, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the ponzu, mirin, dashi, salt, and pepper and allow to boil. Remove from heat and pour in a blender. Add the miso, blend and add the remaining tablespoon of butter.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In an oven proof saute pan, combine the asparagus, garlic oil, salt and pepper and roast in the oven for about 5 minutes, until the asparagus are tender.
• Prepare a saucepan over high heat and add the oil and the garlic. When the garlic becomes golden brown, remove from the heat. Strain the garlic and reserve both the garlic and the oil.
• Wipe the kelp with a damp towel and then place it into a medium sized pot filled with water. Heat the water just before boiling, remove the pot from the heat, and remove the kelp. Place the bonito flakes in the water and allow them to settle to the bottom of the pot. Strain out the bonito flakes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a medium bowl, stir together the nuts, panko, flour, and butter. Set aside.
• Place a piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush it liberally with vegetable oil. Place the mahi mahi on the foil and sprinkle each fillet with salt and pepper on both sides. Bake for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush each fillet with the coconut milk. Divide the nut mixture among the tops of the 4 fillets, patting the mixture to spread and adhere to the fillets. Return to the oven and bake for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Chop the macadamia nuts in a food process until minced. In a medium bowl, combine the nuts, breadcrumbs, garlic, parsley, a pinch of salt & pepper, and the melted butter. Gently toss with a fork until everything is evenly coated in butter. 2. Line 3 pie plates or flat open dishes in a row on your working space. Place the flour in dish #1. Place the beaten egg whites in dish #2. Place the nut/breadcrumb mixture in dish #3. Place a large cookie sheet at the end of the line. 3. Dip each halibut filet one at a time into the flour. Shake off the excess flour and gently turn over inside the egg whites to coat. Let the excess egg drip off and then place into the breadcrumb mixture. Use a spoon to cover and coat the fish with the breadcrumbs. Be sure to coat the top, bottom, and all sides. Gently transfer the coated fish to the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining fillets. 4. Store the fish in the fridge until you are ready to cook dinner. Up to 8 hours ahead of time. FOR A CRISPY COATING: Remove the fish from the fridge when you start to preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Let it slowly come to room temperature while the oven heats. 5. Transfer the fish to a clean room-temperature baking sheet just before placing it in the oven. (If the pan is chilled, the fish will steam and the bottoms will be soggy.) 6. Bake the halibut for 15 - 20 minutes until opaque and flaky. TO PREPARE THE SAUCE: 1. While the fish bakes, melt the butter over medium heat in a medium-sized sauce pan. Add the cream and lemon juice and whisk to combine. Add a pinch of salt & pepper to taste. Heat until slightly thickened and keep warm over low heat until the fish is ready. 2. Serve the lemon butter cream sauce in a small pitcher for drizzling over the fish at the table or the crust on the fish will get soggy.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine macadamia nuts, bread crumbs (Pretzels), 1 teaspoon olive oil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Process until smooth. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Season fish with salt and black pepper. Using a brush, spread a thin layer of the egg whites on top of the fish and then sprinkle over the chopped macadamia nut mixture. You kind of have to smash it into the fish. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and crushed garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear Halibut, macadamia side down, cook 3-4 minutes (if your oil is popping and going crazy, turn your heat down a bit), then turn over and sear the other side for 3 minutes. I use my handy fish spatula, that "Santa" brought me for Christmas. Once the fish is seared, place fish in a baking dish and cook in the oven for another 10-12 minutes. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine mango, cream, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened. This sauce is a little tart, but it compliments the sweet coconut rice very well. I put the sauce into the blender to make it smooth, I think you taste more mango flavor if you blend it. However, you can leave it as is.
