- 6 oz. portion fresh Halibut
- 1-2 cups California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil
- Salt to taste
- 6 yukon gold potatoes
- 12 stalks pencil thin asparagus
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 Tbsp. California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper
In small pan, cover fish with California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil while cold. Marinate for at least 20 minutes. You may add aromatics to the California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil as desired. When ready, season fish with sea salt and return to extra virgin olive oil. Bring slowly to temperature until olive oil reaches 175 degrees. Cook over this heat until soft, usually about 20-25 minutes. Carefully remove from olive oil and pat dry. Reserve remainder of olive oil for other cooking.
Reserve one potato for gaufrettes. Slice remaining potatoes and steam until tender. Mash with sour cream and butter and season to taste. Slice remaining potato on mandoline cross cut and fry in remaining California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil. Season to taste.
Combine ingredients (asparagus, lemon, California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper) for 10 minutes. Grill asparagus over very hot grill for 2-3 minutes. Return to marinade and keep warm until ready to serve.
