Your Alaskan halibut cheeks have been quick-frozen to lock in the flavor and nutrients, and shipped to you on dry ice. Upon arrival, please freeze or refrigerate. 

 

Cheeks will keep in the freezer for approximately 3-4 months; once thawed they should be cooked and used within 1-2 days. 

 

Thawing 

The best way to thaw your halibut cheeks is to leave them in the refrigerator overnight allowing at least 8-10 hours. Trying to rush the process by thawing at room temperature or placing the frozen pouch in warm water is definitely NOT recommended, as it can cause the halibut cheek to lose flavor and texture. If you must thaw your halibut cheek quickly, place the frozen pouch in a bowl of cool water for 30-45 minutes, and then continue thawing in refrigerator. 

 

Cooking 

Pan Seared: Melt 1 tablespoon butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Dip each halibut cheek in a bit of flour (this is a great method although not necessary) and brown over high heat 1-2 minutes per side; until center is opaque. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve. 

 

Baked: Preheat oven to 450. Brush halibut cheek with butter and a dusting of bread crumbs if desired. Place tray high in oven and bake for 3-4 minutes until opaque in center. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. 

 

Grilled: Brush grill with olive oil PRIOR to heating. Season halibut cheek with salt and pepper. Once the grill is medium hot place it, uncovered, and cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side or until it is firm and cooked through.

Our buttery medallions are superb examples of the Pacific Northwest's celebrated halibut cheeks, prized for their delicate flavor & snowy white meat.

Cut from the fleshy, boneless "sweet cheeks" of the fish, they look like giant, flat scallops. The meat has a texture similar to crab, and a slightly sweeter taste than fillets.

Each order contains 2 lbs. of individual cheeks of varied sizes. Comes in 2 - 1lb bags, with each 1lb bag containing approximately 6-9 cheeks.
