Halibut Provençal

Halibut is one of the finest fishes you can have. Its meat is white and flaky and its flavor is delicate. This recipe by Chef Jean Georges Vongerichten elevates even more halibut's qualities by combining it with a blast of freshness - capers, tomatoes and wine.

To serve 4:

Start by preheating the oven to 500ºF. Smear 1.5 tablespoons of butter in a shallow baking pan that will hold the fish without crowding. Sprinkle the butter with 1 tablespoon of minced shallots.
Season 4 halibut steaks, on both sides, with salt and cayenne pepper and lay it in the baking pan, over the shallots. Peel, seed, and dice 1 lb of tomatoes and distribute them around the fish along with 2 tablespoons of capers. Pour in 1.5 cups of dry white wine and bring to the boil on top of the stove. Then, transfer to the oven and cook for 5 minutes, basting once with the cooking liquid. Turn the fish and cook for another 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh copped parsley and serve at once with braised vegetables such as asparagus or broccoli.



This is a super flavorful way of cooking halibut and it makes an elegant and fresh dish for a dinner among friends.

Happy cooking and Bon Appetit!!!
