Ingredients
  • 4-6 1-inch think halibut steaks (sub if you need, firm, white steak-fish);
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups crushed unsalted peanuts;
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups grated pecorino romano cheese (we went $20/lb version here, and you could tell, but grated Kroger Private Select would taste good too);
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs (Italian, plain, whichever);
  • flour, salt, n pepper for dredging;
  • 4 eggs and heavy cream for dredging;
  • 4-6 oz. goat cheese, softened (ours was cranberry/cinnamon, and ROCKED);
  • Olive oil and butter.

Directions
  1. Mix the peanuts, pecorino, and breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Same with flour, salt and pepper. Same with eggs and cream (beat this);
  2. Set up a three pan dredge station with flour/salt/pepper, then beaten eggs/cream, then breadcrumb/peanut/cheese mixture;
  3. Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel;
  4. Dredge in flour mix, then egg mix, then coat completely with peanut/pecorino mix;
  5. Place on buttered baking sheet;
  6. Drizzle 1 t olive oil and place one small pat of butter on each steak;
  7. Into the oven for about 20 minutes at 400 degrees;
  8. Out of the oven to get smeared with goat cheese on top. Use the goat cheese to cover over any spots on the fish that are close to burning;
  9. Back into the oven to broil for five minutes or less. Check the cheese on top. When it's melted and then set to crust over a little on top, pull it.

Wow, yummy, I would expect to get served this in a five-star restaurant, but the steps seem simple enough to pull off at home. Great post!!


It really is as easy as it looks. Three trays lined up next to your baking dish. Dredge, crust, bake...


I love Halibut and this delightful dish really shows how an easy to prepared recipe can be so delicious.
