Old Bay Halibut Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and Old Bay together; brush the halibut fillets with the mixture.
• Arrange fillets in a single layer in an ovenproof baking dish; cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
• Melt butter in a small saucean over low heat; add in garlic; stir/saute until the garlic is fragrant, about 5 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.
• Remove pan from heat; add in lemon juice, lemon zest, and herbs; store in the refrigerator until you are ready to bake the fish.
• Preheat oven to 400°; let fish come to room temperature for about 15 minutes.
• Melt the garlic butter and pour it over the fish.
• Bake the fish for 10 minutes, basting once with the sauce.
• The fish is done when it is opaque all the way through when slashed in the thickest part or an instant-read thermometer reads 165°.
• Serve fish with the garlic butter spooned over each portion.

Steps:

• Whisk egg in a small bowl.
• Combine flour, herbes de Provence, seafood seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a separate small bowl.
• Cut halibut into 4 equal pieces.
• Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-low heat.
• Dip each piece of halibut in whisked egg.
• Dredge all sides of each piece in flour mixture to evenly coat; tap off excess flour.
• Place coated pieces immediately in the hot olive oil.
• Cook the halibut until lightly browned, about 5 minutes; turn and cook until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, another 2 minutes.

Steps:

• For the lemon butter: Whisk together the lemon juice, salt, pepper, lemon zest and butter in a deep medium bowl until well blended (mixture will be like a thick sauce). Set aside until ready to use.
• For the halibut and crispy shallots: Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper and garlic in an 8-by-8-by-2-inch glass dish. Whisk the marinade to blend. Add the halibut and turn several times to coat evenly. Let stand 15 to 20 minutes.
• Combine the grapeseed oil and shallots in a medium heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until the oil heats up and the shallots turn golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the shallots with a slotted spoon to several layers of paper towels to drain and crisp. Sprinkle with salt and pepper just before using.
• Heat a large dry nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lift the halibut from the marinade, letting the excess drain off. Add the halibut to the hot skillet and sear 3 minutes. Turn the fish over using a flexible metal spatula. Sear until still slightly pink in the center, about 3 minutes longer, depending on thickness. Transfer the halibut to plates. Top with a generous dollop of lemon-butter and pile the shallots alongside or scatter around the fish. Garnish with the lemon wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Season halibut fillets with salt and pepper.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add onion. Cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add wine; simmer until slightly reduced but still juicy, about 5 minutes. Pour mixture into the bottom of a baking pan. Place seasoned halibut on top.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, seafood seasoning, white pepper, paprika, and dill in a bowl. Season with salt. Pour on top of halibut. Sprinkle green onions, panko, and capers on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes.
