Servings: 4

Ingredients

Halibut fillets
4 (6-ounce) fillets
Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Salt
to taste
Black pepper
to taste
Butter
3 tablespoons
Garlic
3 cloves, minced
Chicken broth
1/2 cup
Lemon juice
2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed
Capers
2 tablespoons, rinsed and drained
Fresh parsley
1/4 cup, chopped

Instructions

  1. Begin by seasoning the halibut fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Carefully add the seasoned halibut fillets to the skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork. Remove the fillets from the skillet and set aside on a warm plate.
  4. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant and slightly golden.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  6. Add the capers and continue to simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and the flavors to meld together.
  7. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
  8. Plate the halibut fillets and generously spoon the caper sauce over the top. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
