Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Halibut fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large, julienned Red bell pepper
- 1 large, julienned Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large, julienned Carrot
- 1 cup Snow peas
- 1 cup Broccoli florets
- 1 tablespoon, grated Ginger
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 4 servings (optional, for serving) Cooked jasmine rice
Instructions
Preheat the broiler on high and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Pat the halibut fillets dry with a paper towel, then brush them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle evenly with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Place the halibut fillets on the prepared baking sheet and set aside while preparing the vegetables.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the julienned red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, carrot, snow peas, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Stir in the grated ginger and minced garlic, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame oil. Pour this sauce mixture over the stir-fried vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
While the vegetables are cooking, place the halibut fillets under the broiler about 4-6 inches away from the heat source. Broil for 5-7 minutes, or until the fillets are opaque and flake easily with a fork.
To serve, plate the broiled halibut alongside the Thai stir-fry vegetables. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro for garnish. Serve with cooked jasmine rice if desired.
