Halibut en Papillote

Baking halibut en papillote, or in a packet of parchment, is an elegant way to cook this lovely, flaky white fish. The packets also contain potatoes, asparagus, and bell pepper, and are dressed with garlic butter and Meyer lemon slices.

Ingredients:

  • 4 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 meyer lemon, very thinly sliced, or more as needed
  • 4 fingerling potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 8 asparagus spears
  • 2 tablespoons fire roasted bell peppers
  • 2 (6 ounce) halibut filets
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Direction

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Tear off 2 pieces of parchment paper, at least 18 inches long.
  2. Mash garlic and butter together in a small bowl with the back of a spoon.
  3. Place 4 lemon slices on each piece of parchment. Layer with thinly sliced potato and 4 asparagus spears. Scatter bell pepper over, and top with 1 tablespoon butter.
  4. Place 1 halibut filet onto each stack of vegetables, and add 1 tablespoon butter. Layer on remaining lemon slices. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. To close packets, bring opposite sides of parchment together directly above fish. Roll down together tightly until parchment touches packet contents. Crimp the parchment. Now roll and crimp the other 2 sides of parchment to create a sealed packet; tuck ends underneath. Place packets on a baking tray.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven; let packets rest for 2 to 3 minutes before opening carefully.

Mofongo with Shrimp

While shooting his Food Network show, Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Guy Fieri stopped at Benny’s Seafood in Miami to try mofongo, a Puerta Rican comfort food. “The chef pulled out a wooden pilón (a kind of mortar) as big as a tree trunk and filled it with fried green plantains, garlic, salt and chicharrones (crunchy pork rinds). Then he used a baseball bat to mash it together.” The dish is served with chicken broth on the side or topped with meat or seafood, like sautéed shrimp.

Poached salmon topped with a cool, creamy, no-cook dill sauce is an elegant dish, and it's so easy to make. I love it best on swelteringly hot summer days with fresh, steamed asparagus on the side. The sauce tastes great on the asparagus as well!
