This poached halibut is one of my favorite fish entrees. The lovely sweet-and-salty sauce has incredible flavor, texture and color. Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups orange juice, divided |
1/3 cup white wine |
2 tablespoons lime juice |
2 tablespoons chopped shallot |
1/4 cup butter, cut into four pieces |
2 tablespoons chopped sweet red pepper |
1 tablespoon chopped pitted green olives |
1 tablespoon chopped greek olives |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
4 halibut fillets (6 ounces each) |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, bring 1-1/2 cups orange juice, wine, lime juice and shallot to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 15 minutes. Reduce heat to low; gradually whisk in butter until butter is melted. Remove from heat; stir in red pepper and olives. Keep warm. 2. In a large skillet, bring the garlic, oregano and remaining orange juice to a boil. Reduce heat; add fillets and steam, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with sauce. Yield: 4 servings. |
