| Almost time to start fishing again so working on clearing out last year's catch.
Baked Halibut Stuffed with Smoked Salmon & Feta
5 oz smoked salmon, flaked
2 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup green onion, chopped
2 6-8 oz halibut fillets
Salt & pepper to taste
3 tbsp butter
2/3 cup fish stock
1 roasted red bell pepper, diced
Directions
In a bowl, mix smoked salmon, feta, and green onion. Cut a pocket into the side of the halibut fillet and season with salt & pepper.
Stuff the salmon mixture into the halibut.
Spread 1 tbsp of butter on the bottom of an oven proof sauce pan and add the halibut and the fish stock. Top with red bell pepper and bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
Remove the fish from the sauce pan, and bring the remaining liquid to a boil on the stove top. Add remaining 2 tbsp butter, simmer until thickened. Pour over the halibut. | |
The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has it's limits...
ps - friends don't let friends eat farmed salmon. | |
