momo mom of 2's Note:
This is by far the BEST fried halibut I have EVER had! (That really says a lot being from Alaska you know hehe).

Ingredients:
Serves: 4-6
Yield:
Yield 6.06-8 Yield
six oun ...

six oun ...
Units: US | Metric
1 medium halibut fillet (approx 3 lbs)
2 cups white flour
1 tablespoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1 pinch onion powder
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard (or to taste)
6 tablespoons vegetable oil (amount will vary)
Directions:
1Cut halibut into portion size pieces (this will vary with every family); set aside.2In gallon ziplock bag combine all dry ingredients; seal bag and shake to mix. Add halibut pieces to dry ingredients and shake thoroughly again.3In small bowl combine mayonnaise and mustard; mix thoroughly (secret ingredient!).4Add some oil to skillet over med heat until oil begins to ripple. You will need to add more oil in small amounts at a time throughout cooking.5Add halibut a few pieces at a time to skillet until full. DO NOT OVERLAP FISH. Cook until just beginning to brown on bottom side and flip. Once turned, lightly baste browned side of fish with mayonnaise mixture. Turn fish once more and repeat basting. The key to this step is to re brown basted sides of fish before removing from pan. The pieces should turn a deep brown (not black but close). That is when you know they are done.6Serve while still hot. (May be kept in warm oven until all fish is done).


I am going to serve that with baby potatoes and steamed artichokes. Wasabi instead of mustard.

Halibut is probably my favorite fish. The best I ever had was horseradish crusted. Really delicious.

You should just fry it for the halibut. See what I did there?

Beer batter. Cheap beer works the best.

Flour, baking powder, an egg, pinch of cayenne and garlic powder.

The thing with most white fish is you can make it taste however you want. Just be very careful not to get any burn on the flour crust you are going with or it will make the whole batch taste bitter/burnt. I prefer to broil halibut myself.

omg...overkill....parsley, oregano, paprika, black pepper, crushed red pepper or cayan (if you like a bit spicier)...in a pan with extra virgin olive oil already heated...crust it on both sides..


You can also put the same thing in aluminum foil and put onto a fire..

if you want simple....Louisiana...(<the company name) Cajun seasoning not zaratans crap, etc and done
