Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
2 tbsp Butter (30 ml)
3 tbsp Canola oil (45 ml)
4 Halibut filets, skin on (2 lbs)(907 g)
Salt pinch
Pepper pinch
1 Zucchini, cut in cubes
20 Cherry tomatoes, cut in 2
20 Sugar snap peas, cut in 2
1 Green onion, sliced
2 cups Vegetable stock (500 ml)
10 Fresh basil leaves, ripped
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large, non-stick pan that can go in the oven, heat the butter and canola oil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper on both sides, sear in the hot pan starting with the meat side down. After a few minutes, turn the fish over and place the pan in the oven for 15 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven and place one filet each in 4 bowls. Put the hot pan back on the stove top and turn the heat to medium. Sauté the vegetables for a few minutes, add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the broth for a minute or two and then pour the broth around each piece of fish.
Garnish each bowl with some ripped basil and serve.
