Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Halibut fillets
- 1 cup Walnuts
- 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 pieces Eggs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
- 0.5 teaspoons Sesame oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Finely chop the walnuts and mix them in a bowl with the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Set aside.
Place the flour on a shallow plate, beat the eggs in a second shallow dish, and pour the walnut mixture into a third shallow dish.
Season both sides of the halibut fillets with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.
Dredge each fillet lightly in the flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it thoroughly with the walnut mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat the olive oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the coated fillets and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until the crust is golden brown. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is baking, prepare the honey soy sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, minced ginger, and sesame oil. Stir well and allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Remove the halibut from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. Drizzle the honey soy sauce over the fish or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce.
Garnish the dish with additional chopped parsley or lemon wedges if desired, and serve warm.
