Description
Delicious baked halibut topped with sour cream and herbs, served with green onions.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pieces halibut or other mild white fish
- to taste salt and fresh ground black pepper
- 3 T sour cream
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp. dill weed (dried dill leaves)
- 2 T finely ground Parmesan cheese
- 3 T sliced green onion
Instructions
- Thaw frozen halibut overnight in refrigerator, then place in baking dish and blot dry with paper towels.
- Let the halibut come to room temperature while you prep other ingredients. Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
- Slice 3 T green onions, then measure 2 T and finely chop them. Reserve the other 1 T sliced onions to garnish the cooked dish.
- In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream, garlic powder, and dill weed. Stir in the finely grated Parmesan cheese and green onions.
- When fish has come to room temperature, use a rubber scraper to spread an even coating of this topping over each piece of the fish, using all the topping mixture.
- Bake fish until the internal temperature reaches 145F/62C, or until fish pieces feel firm but not hard to the touch. I baked my extra-thick pieces of halibut for 24 minutes, but other types of fish or thinner pieces will cook much more quickly.
- Serve the Baked Halibut hot, sprinkled with remaining sliced green onions.
Notes
- Ensure the halibut is completely thawed and dried before cooking for the best texture.
- Thicker pieces of fish will require longer cooking times.
- Feel free to substitute other mild white fish if halibut is not available.
