Cook the Halibut
-
Thoroughly dry the fish with paper towel before cooking.
-
Cut fish into one-inch slices, then lightly salt and pepper on one side.
-
Dredge slices of fish in flour so that they are lightly coated and shake off any excess flour.
-
Coat pan with olive oil and heat over a high flame. Sauté fish quickly, flipping after one to two minutes when it has a light, golden brown sear.
-
Once the second side is golden brown, remove fish from pan. Add canola oil and return to flame.
Prepare the Sauce
-
Add fennel and apple to pan, adding salt to taste. Add arak and stir through, then add wine and parsley. Simmer until wine is almost completely reduced.
-
Add fish stock or water and stir. Let cook down for another two minutes.
To Serve
-
Return fish to pan for one minute, then remove from flame and plate.
-
Use leftover apple peels, parsley, and fennel to garnish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle cayenne pepper to taste.
