Steps:
- Grate enough zest from lemon to measure 1/2 teaspoon and squeeze 2 tablespoons juice. Chop capers and in a small bowl whisk together with zest, lemon juice, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Add 1/4 cup oil in a slow stream, whisking constantly until blended. Whisk in herbs.
- Pat halibut dry and season with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet heat remaining tablespoon oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook halibut, turning once, until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 7 minutes total. Serve halibut topped with salsa verde and garnished with lemon wedges.
Tips:
- Choose fresh halibut fillets: Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, briny smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the halibut fillets into even pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Marinate the halibut fillets in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, lime juice, garlic, and spices before cooking. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the fish.
- Cook the halibut fillets until they are just cooked through. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
- Make the salsa verde while the halibut fillets are cooking. This will give the flavors time to meld together.
- Serve the halibut enchiladas immediately, topped with salsa verde and your favorite toppings.
