This recipe is very simple to make, but packs a lot of flavor. You can serve the halibut over spaghetti squash, or zoodles.

Pesto Halibut

Yields: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 halibut filets
  • 4 tbsp. pesto
  • Olive oil
  • 1 tomato thinly sliced
  • Salt & pepper
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges – for serving
  1. Preheat oven to 425°
  2. Rinse the halibut and sprinkle with a little salt, pepper and olive oil. 
  3. Add 1 tbsp. of pesto to each filet and spread the pesto onto the filet using a frosting knife. (If you don’t have a frosting knife, a regular butter knife should work just fine)
  4. Add 2-3 tomatoes slices onto each filet. Sprinkle a bit more salt and pepper, and drizzle a bit more little olive oil over the top of all the filets.
  5. Bake the halibut on a foil lined baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  6. Serve the halibut over spaghetti squash with a lemon wedge on the side.


I made a side salad of tomato, cucumber, bell pepper, onion, red wine vinegar, dill, salt and pepper and it paired very nicely with this meal.
