For the Halibut
  • 4 fillets Halibut Fresh fillets are ideal; if using frozen, ensure to thaw and dry.
For the Crust
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Opt for quality cheese, avoid powdered versions.
  • 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs Substitute with panko for a crunchier crust.
  • 2 cloves Minced Garlic Use fresh garlic for maximum taste.

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the grated parmesan, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, melted butter, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until it resembles wet sand.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the halibut fillets on it, ensuring they don't touch.
  4. Press the crust mixture onto each fillet to form a thick layer about 1/4-inch deep.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily.
  6. Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
