Ingredients

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup thinly sliced yellow onion
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 cups diced tomato
1 medium jalapeno, diced
1 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons butter
4 (8-ounce) halibut fillets
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup Spanish olives, cut into thin rounds, plus 2 tablespoons olive juice from bottle
2 medium avocados, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro leaves

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook until lightly colored, about 3 minutes. Add tomato, jalapeno and white wine. Cook until wine is reduced by 2/3, about 5 to 7 minutes. While sauce is reducing, heat butter in a separate skillet over medium heat. Season fish with kosher salt. When butter is melted, add halibut to the pan. Cook for 2 minutes, flip over and then transfer pan to preheated oven and bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove sauce from heat when reduced and stir in olives and olive juice.
To serve, divide sauce equally among 4 dinner plates. Place halibut (first caramelized side up) in the center of each plate on top of the sauce. Place avocado slices on top of fish, sprinkle with lime juice and cilantro, as garnish.

I created this recipe because my family just loves the dynamite dishes served in sushi restaurants. It's a hit for all ages! This would even be great on top of chicken breasts! Serve atop of sushi rice and a side of steamed broccoli. Garnish with a lemon wedge.

Tips:

Choose the freshest halibut possible. Fresh halibut should have a mild, sweet flavor and a firm, flaky texture. Avoid fish that is discolored or has a strong odor.
Use a light hand with the seasonings. Halibut is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overpower its natural flavor. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and lemon juice is all you need.
Cook the halibut until it is just cooked through. Overcooked halibut will be dry and tough. The best way to tell if the fish is done is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If it flakes easily, it's ready.
Serve the halibut immediately. Halibut is best enjoyed when it is hot and fresh out of the oven or off the grill.

Conclusion:

Halibut is a versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you bake it, grill it, or pan-fry it, halibut is sure to be a delicious and satisfying meal. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful fish recipe, give halibut a try. You won't be disappointed.
