Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Halibut fillets
- 1 cup (crumbled) Blue cheese
- 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons (melted) Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels, then season each fillet with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the blue cheese, panko breadcrumbs, melted butter, mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and parsley. Mix thoroughly until the mixture forms a crumbly paste.
Brush the tops of the halibut fillets lightly with olive oil, then evenly spread the blue cheese mixture over the top of each fillet.
Place the fillets onto the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the topping is golden and bubbly.
Remove the halibut from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley and a wedge of lemon if desired. Pair with roasted vegetables or a light salad for a complete meal.
