West Coast Halibut Fish And Chips With Homemade Tartar Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat nonstick or well-seasoned cast iron grill pan over medium high heat. Drizzle halibut pieces with oil, then season with crab boil seasoning, salt and pepper. Grill on a hot pan 4 or 5 minutes on each side.
• Place melted butter in a small dish and add juice of 1/2 lemon.
• Combine all ingredients for the tartar sauce in a small bowl.
• Lightly toast buns on grill pan after fish is removed.
• To assemble, brush bun bottoms and fish with lemon butter. Top fish with tomato and lettuce and slather the bun tops with tartar sauce, then serve. Serve with Asparagus salad and fancy chips.
• Heat shallot and oil in microwave safe covered dish for 30 seconds or in a small pan on the stovetop over medium low heat for 5 minutes. Allow oil to cool back to room temperature.
• Hold a spear of asparagus at each end and snap it. The spear breaks where the tender tops meet the tough bottoms. Line the broken spear up with the bundle of cleaned asparagus. Cut the spears using the guideline of the snapped spear. Par boil the asparagus tops in 1 inch simmering water covered for 3 to 5 minutes. Cool under cold running water and drain. Cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces on an angle and add to a bowl. Combine chopped, cooked asparagus with shredded endive, red bell pepper, cooked pasta, green peas and chopped parsley. The peas will defrost as you toss salad. Pour vinegar into a small bowl and whisk in cooled shallot oil. Pour dressing over salad and toss. Season salad with salt and pepper, to your taste and toss again.
• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Cook Time: 20 minutes, overlapping, including pasta
• Ease of preparation: easy

Steps:

• For the tartar sauce: In a bowl, add the parsley, tarragon, shallot, and cornichon. Chop the hard boiled egg by removing the yolk and crumbling it, then dice the white. Add both yolk and whites to the bowl. Add vinegar, salt, mustard, mayonnaise, and a few dashes of hot sauce (or more to taste). Stir to combine and set aside.
• For the beer batter: In a large mixing bowl, mix the cake flour and baking soda with a fork. Slowly pour in the beer, stirring the entire time (it's okay if there are a few lumps). The batter should be thin, falling off the fork easily so it coats the fish, not heavy like pancake batter. Set aside.
• Fry the halibut: Fill a deep heavy-bottomed pan with oil-don't go higher than 2 inches from the rim-and heat to 350 degrees F. Season the halibut with salt on both sides. Test the oil by cooking a few drops of batter; they should float to the surface when the oil's hot enough. Remove these "tester crunchies" with a slotted spoon. One piece at a time, drop the fish into the beer batter, then remove it, letting the excess drip off. Then place it halfway into the oil, letting a crust form for 10 seconds, then releasing it gently into the pan. Repeat with two more pieces (three at a time), so the pan isn't overcrowded and cook each for 3-4 minutes. Remove the fish to a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack to drain any excess oil. Season with flaky sea salt and serve with tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Fill fryer with vegetable oil to its maximum level, or fill a deep pot no more than halfway with the oil. Preheat fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Fill a gallon resealable plastic bag with 3 cups wheat cereal. Using a rolling pin, lightly crush cereal into small crumbs. Set aside.
• In a shallow bowl, combine flour, ranch dressing mix, and salt. Coat fish with seasoned flour mixture then shake off excess flour. Dip in eggs and roll in crushed cereal. Continue with remaining fillets. Carefully add 3 to 4 pieces in fryer and cook until golden brown and crisp. Repeat with remaining fillets.
• Serve with tartar sauce and seasoned chips.
• In a small dish, strain relish and discard juices. In a separate bowl, combine strained relish with mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice. Stir thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with fried halibut.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Rinse halibut and pat dry with paper towels.
• Cut fish into large cubes or thick fingers.
• Add salt and pepper to melted butter, to taste.
• Dip fish pieces into butter and then coat with crushed potato chips.
• Place on ungreased baking stone or cookie sheet.
• Bake in 375 degree oven for 20 minutes or until fish is flaky and opaque. Do not over cook.
• Alternate method:
• If you are watching your fat intake, use beaten eggs in place of the butter.
• Serve hot plain or with tartar sauce.
• **These make great appetizers when cut into smaller pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
• Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Season halibut with salt and ground black pepper.
• Place halibut in the greased baking dish.
• Combine green onions, mayonnaise, sour cream, and dill in a bowl.
• Spread green onion mixture evenly over each halibut piece.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
