Elder and Sister Coy's Yummiest Ever Halibut Recipes

Asiago Halibut

1/4 cup Asiago Cheese, grated                         egg

1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated                     flour

1 cup Japanese Bread Crumbs, Panko

pinch of salt

Mix cheeses, bread crumbs, and salt together and put in dish (the amounts represent the ratios. . . it usually takes 2-4 times these amounts).  Dredge sliced halibut in flour or shake it in a bag then dip in egg bath and into the mixture-patting on both sides.  Fry in clarified butter for approximately 2 min. on each side in a very hot pan.

Elder & Sister Coy like to serve it with mashed potatoes and gravy (use the leftover flour and butter solids/remainder of clarified butter and make it in the pan used for frying).

Sweet and Sour Halibut

1 1/2 lbs. fish fillets cut into roughly 1 inch pieces

Batter

3/4 cup cold water

2/3 cup all-purpose flour

1 1/4 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder

Pat fish dry with paper towels.  Heat oil (1-1/1/2 " deep) to 360 degrees.  Prepare batter by mixing all the ingredients.  Dip fish in batter with tongs.   Allow excess batter to drip back into bowl.  Fry 7-8 pieces at a time until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side.  Drain on paper towels.  Arrange on platter; pour sauce over fish.

Sauce:

Cut up carrots-cover with water in a separate pan

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/3 cup vinegar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 can pineapple chunks

1 green pepper, cut into 1 inch pieces

Heat carrots and water to boiling.  Cover and cook until crisp-tender, 8-10 minutes.  Mix brown sugar, vinegar, cornstarch, and soy sauce in a 2pquart saucepan.  Stir in carrots (with liquid), pineapple chunks with syrup, and green pepper.  Heat to boiling, stirring constantly.  Boil and stir 1 minute.

Seasoned Halibut

In a gallon ziplock bag put:

 2 ½ cups seasoned croutons (finely crushed)

2 tsp. Johnny’s Seasoning 2 tsp. Mrs. Dash seasoning

2 tsp. salt                                  2 tsp dill weed

Shake in bag to get everything combined.

Skin Halibut and cut into small chunks and coat in garlic flavored oil.  Put the oiled chunks of meat into the gallon bag.

Put under a broiler and cook moving the meat around for only 3-5 minutes.  Watch closely, as it burns easily.

Coconut Halibut

1 can stewed tomatoes                        3 lbs skinned Halibut

Johnny’s Seasoning                   Mrs. Dash seasoning

Brown the halibut coated in Johnny’s & Mrs. Dash’s seasoning.

Red bell peppers

Red onions

White onion

Cut into rings and sauté in butter, and set the chunks of fish on top of vegetables.

Coconut milk-he likes to use the more solid part of the milk, so he lets it set up before he uses it.

Pour coconut milk (solid portion) all the fish.  Add stewed tomatoes, craisins, yellow raisins and simmer in the juices in a pan for about 10 minutes.

Tartar Sauce

2 cups sour cream                     1/3 cup mayonnaise

Cut up green onions, sweet onion, baby dills, and dill weed.  Add some pickle juice and seasoning salt.  Season to your taste.  Combine until smooth.

Pres. Smith’s Salmon

1 filet salmon                            1 cup dark brown sugar, packed

1 cube butter                            zest & juices of lime or lemon

Melt butter and add sugar, add zest & juices of lime or lemon.

Lightly season the salmon with Johnny’s Seasoning Salt & Mrs. Dash.

Line shallow pan with foil and put Kosher salt on top of foil.

Put filet on shallow pan.  Place under high heat of broiler-3-5 minutes.  Watch closely as it may burn.  Then after it has cooked put caramel sauce on and broil 3-5 minutes again.  Baste with sauce 3-5 minutes.

Then put on bottom rack for a few minutes then serve with caramel sauce for dipping.

Birthday Surprise!!

I wanted to make Elder Moffitt's birthday very special this year, so I got him a very big and special birthday present.  Too bad it walked away after spending a few hours in our front yard!  This moose showed up in our front yard on Clint's birthday!
