Episode: Halibut & Ratatouille


Herb and Garlic Crusted Halibut:
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 tablespoons chopped chives
2 tablespoons chopped chervil
2 tablespoons chopped tarragon
4 cloves chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chopped lemon zest
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs
4 (6-ounce) halibut fillets
Salt and pepper
Brush each fillet with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, dredge, skin side down in the herb/bread mixture. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saute pan until almost smoking. Add the fillets, crust-side down and saute until lightly golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, turn the fillets over and continue cooking until the fish is just cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes more.
Ratatouille:
2 large red onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup olive oil
6 cloves garlic, finely sliced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons each, finely chopped, fresh thyme, rosemary, parsley, combined in a bowl
1 large eggplant, sliced 1/2-inch thick
2 zucchini, sliced 1/2-inch thick
2 red bell peppers, seeded and cut into eighths
2 yellow bell peppers, seeded and cut into eighths
5 plum tomatoes, cored and cut into 1-inch thick slices
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium casserole, make a layer of onions, drizzle with a few tablespoons of olive oil, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with some of the herbs. Repeat with the remaining vegetables. Cover and bake in the oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, pressing down on the vegetables occasionally, until the vegetables are completely tender. Garnish with fresh parsley.
