Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

Adapted from Mario Batali
1 to 1.25 Lbs Halibut Fillet, skin on (2 portions 8 ounces each portions)
1 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Organic Lemons, sliced very thinly into rounds
1/4 cup Italian Parsley leaves, plus a few sprigs for garnish
1/8 cup Salt Packed Capers, rinsed and lightly chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 with rack placed in the middle. Pat Halibut Fillets dry and season with Salt and Pepper to taste. Let the Fish sit about 10 minutes at room temperature. Arrange Lemon Slices in a single layer on the bottom of an 8 inch square glass baking dish. Place Fish Fillets over Lemon Slices. Top Fish with all of the Capers, and place remaining slices of Lemon over the Fish. Sprinkle with half of the Parsley. Next, pour all of the Olive Oil over the Fish. Cover the baking dish with a lid or wrap tightly with one layer of aluminum foil. Place in the oven and bake for an hour. Note: If you have increased the portions to serve more than two, check the fish at 1 hour but you may have to leave it in closer to 1.5 hrs. When cooked, the Fish should be an opaque white and flake easily. Top with an extra sprinkle of Salt and Pepper and keep some of the Lemon and Parsley on the Fillets when plating. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley and garnish with Parsley Sprigs. I spooned a teency bit of the cooking liquid over the fish to add extra moisture and taste, but this step is optional.

Fabulous! This recipe is a keeper. The halibut was cooked to perfection and the olive oil poaching method infused it with a rich, buttery flavor. I served it with a lemon caper sauce and it was the perfect finishing touch. I'll definitely be making t

This recipe was a disaster! The halibut was overcooked and dry, and the olive oil poaching method made it even worse. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Not bad. The halibut was cooked well, but I found the olive oil poaching method to be a bit bland. I think next time I'll add some herbs or spices to the poaching liquid to give it more flavor.

Meh. The halibut was okay, but I've had better. The olive oil poaching method didn't really do much for me. I think I'll stick to my usual cooking method for halibut.

Nice recipe! The halibut was cooked well, but I found the olive oil poaching method to be a bit too oily for my taste. Next time, I'll try using less olive oil or a different poaching liquid.

Disappointed. The halibut was a bit overcooked for my taste, and the olive oil poaching method didn't add much flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
