Amazing. Healthy. Fare.
Ingredients
- Fresh local Halibut
- Lemon
- Salt
- Tarragon butter (see recipe on beggars gourmet)
- Thyme
Process
- Bring your butter to room temp or close
- Cut the halibut to desired serving size and salt liberally 20 minutes before cooking
- Preheat oven to 275
- After the 20 minutes, spread the butter on the fish.
- (optional) put a bit of crushed fresh garlic on each piece.
- Lay sprigs on all the pieces
- Thinly slice lemons and lay on all pieces to cover the fish
- Cook from 13 to 20 minutes depending on thickness. A typical one inch piece is closer to 20 but you may need to pull the thinner ends (which u will have) earlier
- Plate up. Remove the sprigs and the lemon to side of plate (looks nice as plate presentation)
- Top with tarragon butter chunks and zap with lemon
Things to know:
The butter and aromatics on the fish becomes a sauce as it cooks. The lemon functions as a moisture trap. Halibut in the oven is very easy to overcook. God speed.
