Baked Halibut Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425ºF and brush a ceramic baking dish with olive oil.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika.

Step 3

Place the halibut in the prepared baking dish, skin-side down. Spread the olive oil mixture evenly over the tops of the fish.

Step 4

Bake 6 to 9 minutes, depending on the thickness of the filets. 7 minutes is about right for 1-inch filets. Then turn on the broiler for one minute to lightly brown the tops. The fish should flake easily with a fork when done.
