Make Blackened Halibut in just 1h . Cajun-spiced, crispy smoked cheddar grits, bacon-braised collard greens, stone fruit salsa

Halibut Preparation

1. Season the Halibut

Rub the halibut fillets with olive oil and coat with Cajun seasoning.

2. Cook the Halibut

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the seasoned halibut for about 4-5 minutes on each side until blackened and cooked through.

Crispy Smoked Cheddar Grits Preparation

3. Cook the Grits

In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir in the grits and salt, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Add Cheese and Butter

Once the grits are cooked, stir in smoked cheddar cheese and butter until melted and creamy. Season with black pepper to taste.

Bacon-Braised Collard Greens Preparation

5. Cook the Bacon

In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pot.

6. Sauté the Aromatics

Add chopped onion and garlic to the pot and sauté until softened.

7. Braised the Collard Greens

Add the collard greens and chicken broth. Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes until greens are tender. Stir in cooked bacon and red pepper flakes to taste.

Stone Fruit Salsa Preparation

8. Mix the Salsa

In a bowl, combine diced stone fruits, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and let sit for 10 minutes for flavors to meld.
