Pan Seared Halibut & Herbs

Pan Seared Halibut

Our friend Bailey (@Sailor_Bailey) was inspired by our fish, to come up with this ridiculously easy and delicious halibut dish! 

“Fresh herbaceous halibut seared in a pan and served with grains and veggies on the side. This 10 ingredient dinner will be ready in less than 20 minutes. It's clean and full of flavor.” - Bailey

Ingredients

• 2 Catch Sitka Seafoods Halibut filets 
• 1 ½ cup chopped broccoli
• 1 cup zucchini
• 1 cup cooked rice *
• 1 tbsp garlic powder or fresh garlic
• ½ tbsp lemon juice
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp pepper
• ½ tbsp rosemary
• ½ tbsp thyme
• ¼ tsp salt *For fish
• 3 tbsp olive oil separated
• ½ cup white wine

Instructions

1. Start by warming 2 tbsp olive oil in a pan. Add in your chopped veggies. Season them with the salt and garlic (powder or fresh). Sauté veggies until they start to soften and get a little charred/blackened on some spots.
2. Add in extra olive oil and season your fish on both sides with leftover salt, thyme and rosemary. Move veggies over to the side of the pan. Add the halibut to the hot skillet or pan and cook on each side for about 5 - 9 minutes (depending on the size of the fish and the heat you are on) Pour in wine over veggies and fish once you are close to finished cooking the fish. You will want it to have a little browning and be slightly flakey. 
3. Add grains to a plate with fish and side of veggies. Add avocado if you'd like and serve with extra wine in a glass ;)

Bailey says you can do any of the following:
*Use any grains in place of rice. 
* Use any veggie you like and will enjoy if these don't work for you.
