Ingredients
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- 1 shallot finely diced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons chives finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 4 halibut fillets
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, shallot, lemon juice, parsley, one tablespoon of chives (save the remaining for garnish), mustard, salt and pepper.
- Lightly coat the inside of the baking dish with oil or butter (to prevent the halibut from sticking). Place the halibut filets in the baking dish. Then evenly spoon your mayonnaise mixture onto the top of the halibut filets.
- Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes minutes being careful not to overcook. Just before the fish is done, turn on the top broiler of your oven for 1-2 minutes to make the top golden. The fish is done when it becomes opaque and flakes easily.
- Remove the halibut from the oven and sprinkle the remaining chives on top before serving.
