Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Halibut fillets
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Pitted Kalamata olives
- 2 tablespoons Capers
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup White wine
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 Lemon, cut into wedges
Directions
Step 1
Pat the halibut fillets dry with a paper towel, and season them with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the halibut fillets and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the fillets from the pan and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, followed by the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Step 4
Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and release their juices.
Step 5
Stir in the Kalamata olives, capers, and white wine. Season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 6
Return the halibut fillets to the skillet, nestling them into the tomato mixture. Cover the skillet and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the dish with chopped parsley for a fresh, herby finish.
Step 8
Serve the halibut with the tomato, olive, and caper mixture spooned over the top, alongside lemon wedges for squeezing. Enjoy!
