Heavenly Halibut (Baked Halibut with Mayonnaise)
An easy 20 minute weeknight recipe that's like elevated fish sticks - a flavorful and tender halibut fillet with a crunchy topping!
Servings: 3 people
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds halibut fresh or defrosted, cut into 3-4 fillets
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons softened butter
- 1-2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon green onion chopped small (chives ok)
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup shredded parmesan
- 1/4 cup panko
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and slice halibut into individual servings. Pat dry on both sides and season with kosher salt and black pepper.
- Mix together the mayo, butter, garlic, green onion and lemon juice and spread evenly on top of the halibut fillets. Combine the parmesan and panko in a small bowl, and sprinkle evenly on top of the mayo mixture so it adheres to the fish.
- Bake at 425℉ for about 15 minutes, or until just cooked through. To get the panko even more golden brown, turn the oven broiler to high heat and broil for about 1 minute, or until the topping is crisped.
Notes
- For extra spice, add 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes or sriracha to the mayo mixture.
- Gluten free - Use gluten free panko like Aleia's or Jeff's Naturals.
- Dairy free - Use my air fryer panko halibut recipe instead, but bake it according to these directions.
- Migraine diet - Omit the lemon juice, and use mozzarella in place of the parmesan (shred it first).
