  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 halibut fillets (about 6 ounces each)
– 2 medium zucchinis
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 tablespoon butter
– 3 cloves garlic, minced

– Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
– 1/4 cup vegetable or chicken broth
– Red pepper flakes (optional)


Instructions

Creating delicious Halibut with Lemony Zucchini Noodles is simple when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare Zucchini Noodles: Use a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler to cut the zucchinis into noodles. Set aside.

2. Season Halibut: Season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.

3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until shimmering.

4. Cook Halibut: Place the halibut fillets into the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove the fillets from the skillet and set them on a plate.

5. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

6. Add Zucchini Noodles: Toss in the zucchini noodles, and cook for 2-3 minutes until just tender but still firm.

7. Add Lemon and Broth: Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vegetable or chicken broth. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring the noodles are coated in the lemony sauce.

8. Combine Halibut and Noodles: Return the halibut fillets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Allow them to heat through for 1 more minute.

9. Taste and Adjust: Taste the noodles and seasoning. Adjust with more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes if desired.

10. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
