Seared Halibut With Anchovies Capers And Garlic Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the halibut steaks on all sides until nicely browned. Remove from pan, and set aside.
• Pour the wine into the pan, and use a spatula to scrape any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce to almost nothing, then stir in the garlic, butter and capers. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer for a minute to blend the flavors.
• Return the steaks to the pan, and coat them with sauce. Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve fish immediately with the sauce from the pan poured over it.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients, (except butter, 2 tablespoons white wine and 1/2 cup chicken stock) and let fish marinate for 1 hour. Remove from marinade, remove excess garlic, and pan saute until medium. Then deglaze with 2 tablespoons wine, 1/2 cup chicken stock and melt butter into the sauce. Let sauce reduce and season with salt and pepper. Serve fish with sauce poured over the top. Garnish with green onions and serve the Tomato-Caper Bruschetta alongside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Add bread and toast until light brown. Remove, rub with whole cloves, and drizzle with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil.
• In a medium saute pan, heat remaining olive oil, add onions, capers and diced garlic, and cook until translucent. Deglaze with wine, then add tomatoes and sugar. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Top toasted baguette with tomato-caper sauce and garnish with Parmesan.

Steps:

• In a pot of boiling salted water set over high heat, cook the haricots verts for 3 to 4 minutes, until tender. Drain and place them in the center of a large, warm serving platter. Cover and keep warm.
• Season the halibut on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Cook the fish for about 3 minutes, until lightly browned. Turn, reduce the heat to medium, and cook about 4 minutes longer, until the fish is opaque in the center and browned on both sides. Put the fish on the platter with the beans and cover to keep warm.
• Pour off any oil in the pan and add the wine and lemon juice. Raise the heat to high and deglaze the pan by scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Cook until the sauce reduces by half, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat and stir in the butter, a piece at a time, to enrich and flavor the sauce. Add the scallions, capers, and tomato. Season with salt and pepper, and pour over the fish on the platter. Serve immediately.
