Fish
ingredients
- 2-4 (6-8 ounce) halibut filets
- 1/4 cup unshelled, lightly salted pistachios, chopped
- 2-4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
Spinach Risotto
ingredients
- 1 (32 ounce) carton vegetable or chicken broth, low sodium + 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1 1/2 cups dry Arborio rice
- 1 (10 ounce) package Cascadian Farm Organic Frozen Cut Spinach
- 3/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
Cook the Fish:
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Step 2
Pat each filet dry with a paper towel. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Spread a thin layer of mayo on top of each filet.
Step 3
Press the chopped pistachio pieces onto the filet to stick to the mayo. Apply generously.
Step 4
Bake on middle rack for about 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
For the Spinach Risotto:
Step 1
Pour broth and water into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Turn heat down to low-medium to keep warm.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a large high-edge skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion in oil for about 5 minutes, or until soft and translucent. Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Step 3
Break the Cascadian Farm Organic Frozen Cut Spinach into smaller pieces over the edge of your counter in its packaging; set aside to slightly defrost.
Step 4
Add in the Arborio rice. Stir for 30 seconds to keep it from sticking, then let it toast up and turn brown slightly, stirring occasionally.
Step 5
Add spinach. Ladle one cup of warm broth into the rice mixture. Stir occasionally until it's fully absorbed, breaking up the frozen spinach further. Continue ladling in broth one cup at a time until gone. Each time the rice will get fuller and creamier. This takes about 20 minutes.
Step 6
Stir in the parmesan. Add juice from a lemon. Mix together and taste. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 7
Serve hot with the halibut.
