- 1-1.5 pounds Alaskan halibut cut into filets
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes cut in half
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ large lemon juiced
- 1 teaspoon fresh dill chopped
- 1 bunch of asparagus ends trimmed
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Use paper towels to pat dry the halibut.
In a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, add the trimmed asparagus. Top with the halibut filets and cherry tomatoes.
Season everything with extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, salt and pepper. Squeeze lemon juice on top and sprinkle the fish with fresh dill.
Bake for 15 minutes then set the oven to broil and broil on high for 3 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven and serve with rice or couscous. Enjoy!
- Buy fresh. When you are buying your halibut fillets, opt for firmer pieces that smell like the ocean. Look for white flesh and avoid if there is discoloration.
- Check the fish fillets for bones and remove them before cooking.
- Avoid overcooking. For best results, it's recommended to slightly undercook halibut as it can dry out very easily.
- If you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for about 2 days. Reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
