Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 ounces each) Halibut steaks
- 1 cup Dry white wine
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 3 cloves (minced) Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the halibut steaks under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
Sear the halibut steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium-low and add minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Pour the dry white wine into the skillet, scraping the bottom to deglaze and release any browned bits.
Stir in the chopped parsley, thyme, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Let the mixture simmer for 2 minutes.
Return the halibut steaks to the skillet, spooning some of the herb and wine mixture over the top.
Place small pats of butter (approximately ½ tablespoon each) on top of each halibut steak.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the halibut steaks rest for 1-2 minutes.
Spoon the pan sauce over the steaks before serving. Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired.
Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or a light salad.
