PAN SEARED HALIBUT WITH POACHED EGG

DINNER AT HOME

Our friends brought back Salmon and Halibut from their Alaska fishing vacation.  Last week we cooked the Salmon and it was incredible.  This Halibut however could be one of the best fish dinners of my life.  I Butter Poached the Halibut and topped it with a Poached Egg.  Also made a White Wine, Shallot Cream Sauce that was out of this world good and a great compliment to the fish and Risotto.  Entire family loved this dish and thought it was better than most restaurants!

DINNER AT HOME

Picked up some really nice looking Halibut at Whole Foods and found a great recipe

 (link below) that really came out great.  Absolutely delicious meal.  Pretty much followed the recipe but added some of my own touches.  For the Potatoes, I did the Mashed with Truffle, Parmesan Cheese, Butter and Creme Fraiche.  I placed Sautéed Spinach with Butter and Garlic on top of the Potatoes but you cannot see them here because the fish is covering up.  Pan Seared the Halibut with Butter, Thyme and Garlic.  Topped with Poached Egg and a Lemon Buerre Blanc sauce.  This was an amazing restaurant quality dinner at home.

DINNER AT HOME

I made Halibut for my Wife a month or so back and she asks that I make it again.  Happy Wife - Happy Life so I gladly made it for her a second time.  This time I ordered the Halibut and some other food items on Amazon.  The fresh Halibut arrived on my doorstep the next morning with free delivery.  The future of food shopping is here and I love it.  Amazon delivers from Whole Foods free when your order is $35 or more.  In some areas they promise a two hour delivery time.  For Hawaii it is the next day right now.  I was amazed that the items were individually wrapped and shipped in an insulated bag.  I pan seared the Halibut on both sides and then finished it in a 350 degree oven for just under ten minutes.  Served with Cannellini Beans that I prepared with Cherry Tomatoes, Onions, Garlic, Lemon Juice and Chicken Stock.  Added some sautéed Carrots and Broccoli too.  Topped with Fried Shallots.  Delicious dinner on the lanai.
