Generally this dish is served in Andalusia as part of a mixed fish fry, but it's wonderful on its own. The marinade makes the fish flavorful and succulent. Note: Prep time does not include marinade time.

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 bay leaves, finely crumbled
  • 2 pounds skinless halibut fillet, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • Olive oil (for frying)
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • Lemon wedges

Directions
  1. Whisk vinegar, garlic, oregano, thyme, cumin, and bay leaves in medium bowl to blend. Add fish and toss to coat. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour or cover and refrigerate up to 4 hours.
  2. Heat enough oil to come 1/2 inch up sides of pan in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Place flour in large bowl. Remove fish from marinade. Toss fish in flour, then shake off excess. Working in batches, fry fish until cooked through and brown all over, turning occasionally with tongs, about 6 minutes per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer to platter. Serve warm or at room temperature with lemon wedges.

Bookmarked this one...am not a very 'fish' person, but the hubby would like this. Wish me luck!!


Delicious! No halibut this week, so I used cod. The vinegar gave the fish a nice tang. The herbs were a great addition to the fish because they stuck to it and got fried up, too. I ate half of the first batch while the second batch fried! :) I think this would be a great recipe for a whole piece of fish as well. Thanks!


I made this again tonight. I used a red snapper filet and substituted fresh chopped basil for the bay leaves. Marinaded it all in a zip lock bag. It was wonderful. I think this is the perfect marinade for frying fish. I am keeping this one. Thanks for posting this. :)


This was amazing! Thanks!


What do you think about using salmon?


Hey, invisiblechef, I think it would be great using salmon or practically any type of fish. Good luck!


This sounds delicious!! I think the marinade would be great on just about anything! Thanks for the great post Darbar!! :-)


Yummmyyyyy
