Despite its name, the hot ajvar called for in this recipe from Zov Karamardian, of Zovs Bistro and Bakery in Tustin, California, is fairly mild. If you cant find ajvar, a substitute can be made by pureeing a seven-ounce can of drained roasted bell peppers with two tablespoons of tomato paste and two tablespoons of purchased chili-garlic sauce, which is available at most supermarkets. Ingredients:
4 6-ounce halibut fillets |
1 cup hot ajvar |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 cup diced carrots |
1 cup diced potatoes |
1 cup diced celery |
1 cup canned great northern beans, rinsed, drained |
1 cup bottled clam juice |
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley |
1/4 cup minced garlic |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Sprinkle halibut with salt and pepper. Spread 1/2 tablespoon hot ajvar on each side of each fish fillet. Set aside.
2. Heat oil in heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add carrots, potatoes and celery; sauté until tender, about 8 minutes. Mix in beans, clam juice, parsley, garlic and cup hot ajvar. Bring to boil. Season with salt. Arrange fish atop vegetable mixture in skillet. Cover and bake until fish is opaque in center, about 20 minutes.
