The Fairbanks Princess is a hotel built literally on the banks of the beautiful Chena River. When I served as chef there, Vivian was one of our most talented members of the staff. She was not only a fantastic cook, she had a sunny atmosphere and a whacky sense of humor, and Blue Cheese Halibut was her dish. The preparation is very similar to the Halibut Olympia recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 c. onions, sliced
- 2 T. butter
- six 6-8 oz. halibut fillets
- 4 T. lemon juice
- few dashes Old Bay Seafood Seasoning
- ¾ c. sour cream
- 1-1/2 c. mayonnaise
- 2 t. nutmeg
- 1-1/2 c. crumbled blue cheese
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 1 c. fresh bread crumbs
- paprika
Directions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the onions in the butter until they are caramelized and begin to become translucent. Remove from heat and arrange in bottom of a large baking dish.
- Pre-Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Directly on top of the sautéed onions, carefully arrange the uncooked fillets of halibut. Sprinkle each piece with a bit of lemon juice, then sprinkle each portion with some of the Old Bay Seasoning.
- Place baking dish with halibut into oven and bake for 10 minutes per inch of thickness of the fish.
- In a small bowl mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, nutmeg, blue cheese and green onions.
- Remove dish of cooked halibut carefully from oven and divide the blue cheese topping between the 8 portions of fish, smoothing it carefully on top of each.
- Sprinkle each portion with some fresh breadcrumbs and also a bit of paprika.
- Return to oven and bake until topping is heated through and is bubbly and slightly browned. Serve.
