Ingredients
- 2tablespoons olive oil
- 2tablespoons soy sauce
- 2tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- ¼teaspoon harissa paste
- 1¼-inch piece of ginger, peeled and grated
- ½clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1red or pink grapefruit, peeled, white pith removed
- 46-ounce fluke fillets
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2tablespoons canola oil
- 1teaspoon thinly sliced mint
- ¼teaspoon chopped rosemary
- 4ounces frisée, white and light green parts only (about 3 cups)
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. In a small saucepan, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, harissa, ginger and garlic. Over a bowl to catch the juices, cut the grapefruit segments free from the membrane. Set the segments aside and squeeze the remaining juice from the membrane into the bowl. Whisk 3 tablespoons grapefruit juice into the olive oil mixture.
- Step 2
Lightly season the fluke on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a large nonstick skillet. When the oil shimmers, add 2 fluke fillets and cook for about 1 minute. Flip and cook for 30 more seconds. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for about 2 minutes. Keep the fish warm, and repeat with the remaining canola oil and 2 fillets.
- Step 3
To serve, warm the vinaigrette over medium-low heat. Just before serving the fish, add the mint, rosemary and grapefruit segments and warm for about 1 minute, or until the segments are heated through. Lay a handful of frisee on each plate, followed by a piece of fish. Top the fish and frisee with grapefruit segments and a few spoonfuls of vinaigrette.

Absolutely delicious with salmon and arugula! (substitutions were based on availability). Easy enough to be a regular weeknight meal, but seems fancy enough for hosting dinner guests.
