Basil And Prosciutto Wrapped Halibut Recipes

BASIL AND PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Lay 3 basil leaves on each slice of prosciutto. Season the halibut fillets with Adobo seasoning, place them on one side of the prepared slices of prosciutto, and wrap the fish fillets with the prosciutto and basil.
• Set an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, pour in the olive oil and place the wrapped halibut fillets in the pan.
• Cook the fillets until the prosciutto is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the fillets over and move the pan into the preheated oven. Bake until the fish is firm to the touch and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED MOZZARELLA & BASIL

Steps:

• Arrange 8 slices of prosciutto flat on a cutting board and put a piece of basil on one end of each slice. Top each piece of basil with a piece of mozzarella and a tomato half, matching the cut sides to make a ball.
• Season very lightly with salt and generously with pepper and then roll up the balls in the prosciutto. Secure each with a toothpick and set on a platter.
• Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Drizzle with the olive oil and serve. These keep at room temperature for up to 1 hour before serving.

ROASTED HALIBUT WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the fish all over with salt and pepper.
• Lay the slices of prosciutto flat and wrap a piece of fish tightly with one of the slices. Repeat with the remaining 3 slices.
• Place the fish on a baking sheet and position it on the middle rack of the oven.
• Roast until the prosciutto begins to crisp up and the fish flakes with gentle pressure from your finger (or a fork), about 10-12 minutes.
• Serve each with a wedge of lemon and the pesto drizzled over the top.
