Mike's Spring-Harvest Halibut Coulis

Ingredients:
1 tsp unsalted butter
2 Tbs EVOO
2 Tbs minced onion
2 Tbs minced garlic
1/2 c. small cauliflower florets
1 large yellow pepper diced and seeded
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp tarragon
12 oz. warm chicken broth [one small can]
1 lb. cooked portioned fish filet of sustainable Halibut or Pacific Cod

Serving Suggestion:
Winter/Fall - serve coulis plated with seasonal Otolith Pacific Cod on top and serve with a hearty seasonal accompaniment such as roasted beets with balsamic and olive oil dressing or sauteed Brussels sprouts with olive oil and bacon.
Spring/Summer - serve coulis plated with seasonal Otolith Halibut on top and serve with a salad of mixed coarsely chopped fresh vegetables and herbs, such as watercress, Boston bib, garlic, baby cucumber, carrots and chopped carrot tops, in a light lemon and olive oil dressing.

Mix:
First - combine onion, garlic, pepper, cauliflower, butter and EVOO in a warm heavy skillet and saute until tender and wilted, not brown.
Next - Pour contents of skillet and remaining ingredients into blender and blend until smooth, about 3-5 minutes. Do not strain. Serve under portioned fillets of seasonal fish. Yum!

Required Time: prep - 10 minutes; cook - 12 minutes
