Halibut Cheeks with Dill and Vermouth
Ingredients
1/2 pound Halibut cheeks
2 tablespoons Butter
2 tablespoons Dry vermouth
1/2 Lemon
1 pinch Fresh dill, finely chopped
Preparation
1
Melt butter in pre-heated sautee pan. Add the vermouth and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Add halibut, salt and freshly ground black pepper and sautee for about 1 minute. Turn, cover and finish cooking on the other side, for a total cooking time (over low heat) of about 8-9 minutes per inch of thickness of the fish. (Start with the lower amount; overcooked halibut is dry and stringy; cook until flaky and tender.)
About
If halibut cheeks are unavailable you can substitute appropriate amounts of halibut fillets or ocean scallops for the meat. This is simple and fast!
