“Don't eat a beefsteak. If you do the eyes of that cow will pursue you through all eternity.”
James Joyce, Ulysses


Ingredients
Two 12-ounce bottles Guinness®
1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
Four 6-ounce skinless halibut fillets
4 large carrots, cut into 2-by-1/2-inch sticks
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
Freshly ground pepper
Salt

Instructions
  • In a skillet, bring the stout and honey to a boil. Simmer over moderate heat, skimming, until reduced to 1/2 cup, 25 minutes. Pour into a heatproof bowl and stir in the lemon juice, hot sauce and 1/2 teaspoon of salt; let cool to room temperature.
  • In a shallow baking dish, pour half of the stout glaze over the halibut fillets and turn to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning a few times. Reserve the remaining stout glaze.
  • Preheat the broiler. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the carrots and boil until just tender, about 4 minutes; drain.
  • Pour the reserved stout glaze into the saucepan and boil over high heat until thickened and reduced to 1/3 cup, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots and simmer until glazed, about 1 minute.
  • Remove the halibut from the marinade and arrange the fillets on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush the halibut with olive oil and season with pepper. Broil about 4 inches from the heat until richly browned and just cooked through, about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer the halibut to plates and serve with the Guinness-glazed carrots.

That looks good. I really don't like to buy Guiness much over here though...it is quite expensive. Sometimes they have it on sale during the St. Patricks Day weekend. I suppose you could substitute another dark beer..but the area where we live they don't carry much dark beer in general. You have to go to one convience store..who will likely charge one third more for the privilege.
