Baked Halibut with Jammy Tomatoes

Time: 60 minutes

When peak tomato season meets fresh halibut, it’s a seasonal dream. Pair it with roasted alliums for a wholesome, flavorful, and truly divine entrée.

INGREDIENTS

Yield: 3 servings

  • 1 ½ pints cherry tomatoes (about 3 cups)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme (or ½ tsp dried)
  • 2 sprigs fresh oregano (or ½ tsp dried)
  • 1 lemon (zest + wedges for serving)
  • 1 ½ lb halibut filet, skin on or off, cut into 2–3 portions
  • Flaky sea salt, for finishing

PREPARATION

Step 1

Heat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large baking dish, toss cherry tomatoes, onion, and garlic with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, thyme, and oregano. Spread into an even layer.

Step 3

Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring once, until the tomatoes are bursting and caramelized, and onions are soft with charred edges.

Step 4

While vegetables roast, pat halibut dry with paper towels. Rub lightly with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and lemon zest.

Step 5

Nestle the halibut in with the tomatoes.

Step 6

Return to oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the halibut flakes easily with a fork but is still moist (internal temp ~130°F).

Step 7

Divide halibut and roasted vegetables onto plates. Squeeze fresh lemon over the top and finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

Step 8

Pair with roasted potatoes, couscous, or a crisp green salad.
