HALIBUT WITH PESTO
Steps:
- Roast the hazelnuts lightly on a baking sheet in the 350F oven until a nice aroma emerges, for about 5 to 7 minutes. Place the basil, cheese, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts and garlic in a food processor and pulse until the mixture becomes coarse paste. In the meantime, add oil in a steady stream. Pulse a few more times until emulsified and stop when your favourite consistency is achieved (I like keeping some hazelnuts in large chunks). Adjust with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, lightly sprinkle the halibut with salt and pepper and lay on an oiled baking sheet. Broil at 400F until flakey, for about 7 minutes or so depending on the thickness of the fish. Take the baking sheet out of the oven and test with a knife. The center may still look slightly pink but that's okay. Smear the pesto on top of the fish and broil until top nicely browned and the centre of the fish is no longer pink but moist, for about 5 minutes. Don't overcook. Take the fish out of the oven, cover with a piece of aluminum foil and let stand for a few minutes.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, thick halibut steaks. Look for steaks that are at least 1 inch thick and have a firm, opaque flesh.
- Use a good quality pesto sauce. You can make your own pesto sauce or use a store-bought brand. If you are using a store-bought pesto sauce, be sure to choose one that is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- Cook the halibut steaks until they are just cooked through. Halibut is a delicate fish, so it is important not to overcook it. The steaks are done when they are opaque throughout and flake easily with a fork.
- Serve the halibut steaks immediately. Halibut is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can garnish the steaks with fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, before serving.
Conclusion:
Halibut steaks with pesto sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The halibut is cooked to perfection and the pesto sauce adds a flavorful and creamy touch. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
