Pan-Fried Halibut with Papaya-Pineapple Salsa
This is a great recipe for March in British Columbia, as halibut season re-opens and we can find lots of ripe, tropical fruit in the grocery stores. Salsa Ingredients:
Mix all ingredients in a bowl, and set aside while you prepare the halibut. Halibut Ingredients:
Mix together the flour, salt and pepper. Dredge the halibut fillets in the flour, shaking to remove excess. Heat the butter and olive oil together in a large frypan on medium-high heat. Fry the fillets, two at a time, until browned on each side and the flesh of the fish flakes easily. Serve hot, with a small mound of the salsa right on top of the fish, or to the side. |
