Baked Halibut Recipe (The Easiest)

Baked Halibut is prepared by seasoning fillets with lemon juice and garlic parsley salt, then topped with slices of unsalted butter before baking until just cooked through. This simple method highlights the mild flavor and firm texture of halibut with a buttery, citrusy seasoning.

Description

This recipe starts by slicing a large halibut fillet into evenly sized pieces to ensure uniform cooking. Each piece is drizzled with fresh lemon juice and seasoned with garlic parsley salt, which imparts a subtle herb and garlic flavor. Butter slices on top of each fillet melt during baking, keeping the fish moist and adding richness.

Baking at 425°F or using a low broil setting for 10-15 minutes cooks the fish until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F, ensuring a tender but fully cooked texture with a lightly golden surface. The simple seasoning allows the natural halibut flavor to stand out while adding mild acidity and herbaceous notes.

This straightforward halibut preparation works well as a main dish paired with vegetables, rice, or salad, offering a clean and balanced seafood option.
