Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces halibut fillets
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 as needed non-stick cooking spray
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pat the halibut fillets dry with a paper towel and place them on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down if applicable.
Using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon, evenly coat the top of each halibut fillet with the Dijon glaze.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the halibut is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 130-135°F (54-57°C).
Remove the halibut from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the Dijon Glazed Halibut with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, zesty finish.
