HALIBUT CASSEROLE
This recipe is a long time favorite and easy to prepare. It is important that the halibut fillet is very fresh and skinless.This is not a chile dish but you can sub the paprika with some Chimayo chile powder–my paprika.4 Servings
1 1/4 lb. halibut fillet, about 1/2 inch thick1/2 lb. Mrs. Miller's Homemade Old Fashioned Noodles, or fettuchini1 pint sour cream1 med. yellow onion, chopped1 Tbsp. caraway seed1 tsp. White pepper, freshly ground1 tsp. sea saltbutter to oil the casserole dishpaprika for topping
1. Cook noddles to package instructions. They should be al dente, since they will be cooking further in the casserole. Rinse in cool water and drain well. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.2. Season the halibut lightly with salt and pepper, set aside.3. In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, onion, caraway seed, pepper and salt. Transfer about 1/3 of the mixture to a separate bowl and set that aside.4. Gently fold the noodles into the large bowl until evenly combined.5. Prepare a 9 inch casserole dish by smearing it with butter. Transfer noddle mixture to the casserole dish and smooth down with a spatula.6. Lay the halibut on top of the noodles. If needed, you can cut halibut up to distribute fish evenly over the top. Now cover the fish with remaining sour cream mixture and shake paprika over the top.7. Bake for at least 25 minutes; the casserole should be bubbling along the sides of the dish.Remove from oven to rest for ten minutes and serve with steamed veggies or a salad.
