Golden Pan-Seared Halibut with Zesty Lemon
Pan-seared halibut fillets served over fluffy quinoa and tender asparagus, finished with a bright and zesty lemon-garlic sauce that adds a vibrant pop of citrus.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz halibut fillet
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp lemon zest
PREPARATION
Pat the halibut fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
Carefully place the halibut in the pan and sear undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes until a golden-brown crust has formed.
Flip the fish and add the minced garlic and trimmed asparagus spears to the pan, sautéing for another 3 to 4 minutes until the fish is opaque and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest, spooning the pan juices over the fish to infuse it with flavor.
Transfer the halibut and asparagus to a plate and serve immediately alongside the warm cooked quinoa.
