Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 ounces halibut Or substitute cod, 2 fillets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • salt pinch
  • black pepper pinch
  • 1 lemon divided

Instructions

  1. Move an oven rack to about 4" away from the broiler. Preheat broiler to high.Brush halibut fillets with half the oil, and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add remaining oil to an oven-safe pan or casserole dish. Slide the pan into the oven.
  2. Cook halibut for 8 minutes per 1" thickness, or until the fish is opaque and the edges are beginning to brown.Do not flip the fish halfway through cooking.When the halibut is done cooking, remove it from the oven. Serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Recipe Variations: Try adapting this recipe by adding more seasoning!
  • Add sliced lemon while broiling.  Discard the lemon slices after cooking and serve along with fresh lemon wedges.
  • Top cooked fish with compound butter.  (Soften butter and beat in flavorings with a spatula.)  We love serving broiled halibut with herbs and citrus zest added to the butter.
  • Flake apart and use in tacos. After cooking, use the flaked halibut meat in your favorite fish taco recipe.
