Halibut with Summer Vegetables
Ingredients
4 5oz pieces of halibut fillet
1 C zucchini and squash, small dice
½ C watermelon radish
½ C green beans, blanched
2 T shallots, minced
2 T garlic, minced
4 T parsley, chopped
2 T lemon juice
4 T unsalted butter
Wondra flour
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
Directions
Place a fry pan on the stove on medium high heat. Film the pan with olive oil.
Season the halibut with salt and pepper and dust with Wondra flour.
Gently slide the fish into the pan and cook on medium high heat until the cooked side is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip over and transfer to a 350 degree oven for about 6 minutes.
Place another pan on high heat and add the zucchini, squash, radish, green beans, shallots and garlic.
Sauté quickly until all vegetables are cooked, then add the parsley and lemon juice.
Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
Gently stir in the butter until it is lightly browned from the heat.
Remove the halibut from the oven.
Spoon the vegetable mixture into the center of a plate allowing the lemon brown butter to pool out from the vegetables.
Place a halibut fillet on top and serve.
