Halibut Fillets With Leeks Recipes

Steps:

• Combine melted butter, honey, lemon juice, liquid aminos, pepper, and garlic in a small bowl; mix to combine.
• Brush both sides of the halibut fillets with the butter sauce.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over very high heat. Add halibut filets and sear on each side for 90 seconds. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook on each side until fish can be easily flaked with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Steps:

• To prepare the melted leeks, place a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring only occasionally, until they're golden brown and beginning to shrink a bit, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and reserve.
• Return the skillet to medium heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the butter. Add the leeks to the pan, season them with salt and pepper, then cook, stirring frequently (don't let them get brown), until they've softened, about 10 minutes. Add the white wine and dried oregano to the skillet along with the reserved mushrooms and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until most of the wine has evaporated, about 5 minutes more. Season as needed with salt and pepper; reserve warm.
• While the leeks are cooking, prepare the gremolata. In a small mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients and reserve.
• When the leeks are just about ready, place a second medium skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil. Season the fish liberally with salt and pepper, and sear it flesh-side down first, turning the fillet only once, until cooked to your liking, about 5 minutes per side for medium (depending on the thickness).
• Serve the melted leeks topped with a piece of fish per plate and a garnish of the gremolata.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Heat 3 teaspoons butter in medium skillet over low heat, add leeks, orange zest, simmer gently until leeks soften, add mirin or white wine, coriander seed and continue to cook until liquid is evaporated, season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool. Thinly slice washed, unpeeled potatoes (1/4-inch thick) toss slices with melted butter, roast in a single layer on a baking sheet until just tender, approximately 4 minutes. Remove from oven and cool. Combine all ingredients for truffle butter, stir to incorporate. Cut parchment into an elongated heart shape, lay in one layer of potatoes, then 1 teaspoon cooked leeks, then halibut seasoned with salt and pepper, then 1 teaspoon truffle butter. Start at the middle of the heart and fold while creasing well until package is completely enclosed, bake just before serving for 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the leeks in a roasting pan. Toss the tomatoes with 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, vinegar, rosemary, thyme, and salt in a small bowl and add it to the leeks and toss. Put the pan in the oven, uncovered, and roast for 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes. Remove from oven when the leeks have softened to touch or when the tomatoes have begun to shrivel.
• In a large nonstick pan, over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons butter and allow the butter to melt. Drizzle the halibut with remaining oil, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Put the halibut in the buttered pan, skin side down, and reduce the heat to medium. Allow the fish to cook for 5 minutes, carefully flip and repeat the cooking process on the second side. After the second side has cooked, remove the halibut to a plate and keep warm. Return the pan to high heat. Stir in the wine with a wooden spoon, to deglaze the pan. Add the lemon juice and chicken stock. This pan sauce should reduce by half, or until thickened. Once the sauce has reduced, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining butter. Arrange the halibut on serving plates, drizzle with the sauce and serve with the roasted leeks and tomatoes alongside.
