Roasted halibut, Nordic shrimp and smoked salmon

A winning seafood trio! A recipe from Ricardo.

  • ¼ cup white wine
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup 35% cream
  • 2 cloves garlic (cut in half)
  • 12 fingerling potatoes (cooked and halved lengthwise)
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • ¼ cup dried seaweed, dulse (sea bacon) or sea lettuce (torn into pieces)
  • 1 lb skinless halibut fillet (cut into 4 pieces)
  • 1 cup frozen cooked northern shrimp (thawed)
  • 85g smoked salmon slices
  • fennel leaves (to taste)
  1. In a small saucepan over high heat, reduce the white wine by half. Add the broth, cream, and garlic. Simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Set the sauce aside.

  2. Meanwhile, in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the potatoes in 30 ml (2 tbsp) of the butter until cooked through. Set aside on a plate and keep warm.

  3. In a bowl, rehydrate the seaweed in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain.

  4. In the same pan, brown the fish in the remaining butter. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. Divide the halibut and potatoes among shallow plates. Using a hand blender, froth the sauce, incorporating air, and coat the fish. Top with the shrimp, smoked salmon, seaweed, and fennel fronds.
