I took a break from my work for Mother's Day. I asked my wife what she wanted and she said Halibut. We went up to our local fish market and picked out a really nice filet weighing 1.4 lbs. Paired it up with a Brussels Sprout and caramelized shallots dish and a baked potato. Here's a few pictures.
Earlier in the day I made some nice Crusty Rolls to go with our dinner.
I had quite a bit of prep to do on the sprouts so got to work on that first. Including the obvious items in the photo are 4 large shallots thinly sliced, AC vinegar, toasted walnuts and red pepper flakes.
I caramelized the shallots in advance too.
Here is the filet. I patted it dry and rubbed it down with some softened butter, lemon juice, onion powder, parsley, dill, sugar and s&p. (not shown)
When it came time to put the sprouts and fish on it got a little nuts so not a lot of pic's.
Cooked the halibut about six minutes total on my grillgrates.
Plated it up.
I got lucky and nailed the halibut. My wife is a fish lover and she said it was the best halibut she's had. Tasted pretty good to me too. Nice and flaky with wonderful flavor. We had a great Mother's Day and I hope you all did too. Thanks for looking and see you on Smoke Day.... if not sooner.
