Seared Halibut with Parmigiana Asparagus
Recipe courtesy Edison Mays

Ingredients
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 (6-ounce) halibut steaks
Sea salt
White pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour

16 young asparagus
1 small shallot, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

3/4 cup grated Parmesan

Instructions
For halibut: Preheat a 12-inch saute pan over
medium-high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Season halibut with salt
and pepper and dust with the flour, shaking off the excess. As your butter starts
to brown, gently lay each steak in your pan. Allow to cook until golden brown on
both sides and cooked through, approximately 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

For asparagus: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Trim and clean your asparagus. In a large bowl add cleaned asparagus, minced

garlic, minced shallots, and extra-virgin olive oil. Season, to taste. Lay
prepared asparagus on a half sheet pan and roast until tender, about 10 to 15
minutes. Right before taking your roasted asparagus out of the oven liberally top
with freshly grated parmesan cheese. The heat of your pan should melt your
cheese.

To serve, place 4 pieces of asparagus on a plate, top with golden brown halibut
steak. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Garnish with a sprig of chervil or
chives
