Halibut Seared with Bacon


Ingredients

  • 8 (7 ounce) halibut steaks

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 1/2 pound bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces

  • 1 pound fresh green beans, tips trimmed, sliced into 1/8-inch pieces

  • 2 pinches salt

  • 2 tablespoons water

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice

  • salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Total Time: 40 min Prep: 10 min Cook: 30 min
Yield: 8 Level: easy

Directions

  1. Season halibut steaks generously with salt and black pepper. Refrigerate until needed.
  2. Place bacon in a skillet and cook over medium heat. When bacon is about half cooked, 4 to 6 minutes, stir in beans and pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until bacon is crisp and beans are almost tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer bacon and beans to a bowl and return skillet with bacon drippings to the stove over medium-high heat.
  3. When bacon drippings just begin to smoke, place 2 halibut steaks in the skillet; cook until browned and meat is just starting to pull away from the bone, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to a plate and repeat for remaining 2 steaks.
  4. Remove skillet from heat and pour in water; bring to a boil while scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Return beans and bacon to the skillet and stir in lemon juice; cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon hot bean and bacon relish over halibut steaks and serve.
