Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) halibut fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 4 lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels and rub each piece with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Season the fillets evenly on both sides with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and chopped rosemary. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture reduces to a thick glaze (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat.
Place the halibut fillets on the prepared baking sheet and brush them generously with half of the balsamic garlic glaze.
Roast the halibut in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the fillets with the remaining balsamic garlic glaze.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an added burst of freshness. Pair with a side of roasted vegetables or a light salad for a complete meal.
