Another clipping from my Great Aunt's recipe collection. I am not sure if she tried this one or not, but it certainly sounds good to me. This one came from a cookbooklet put out by the small local newspaper, The Naperville Sun. Ingredients:
2 lbs halibut steaks (north pacific) |
water, as needed |
salt, to taste |
1 slice lemon |
1 slice onion |
1 sprig fresh parsley |
1/4 teaspoon tarragon |
4 teaspoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 dashes tabasco sauce |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 1/4 cups orange juice |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 orange, peeled and in sections |
Directions:
1. Boil some water (you will need enough to cover the fish)- once it has boiled, add some salt to taste.
2. Put halibut into a large skillet and cover with boiling salted water.
3. Place lemon, onion, parsley, and tarragon on top, cover and simmer 8-10 minutes or until halibut is just beginning to flake when poked with a fork (don't overcook).
4. Meanwhile, combine cornstarch, brown sugar, salt, Tabasco, and butter in a small pan for the sauce.
5. Add orange juice and lemon juice and cook and stir until thickened and clear.
6. Add orange sections and heat through, then serve over fish.
