Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Halibut fillets
- 0.5 cup Apricot preserves
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) Fresh rosemary
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Season the halibut fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides and set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the apricot preserves, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and water. Stir well.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Place the halibut fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush a generous amount of the apricot rosemary glaze over each fillet, reserving some glaze for later.
Bake the halibut for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Remove the halibut from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze for an extra layer of flavor.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
