Ingredients

4 halibut fillets (6 oz each)

1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

1/2 cup fresh basil, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh dill, finely chopped

1 lemon, zested and juiced

1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 garlic cloves, minced

1/4 cup olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Herb Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped parsley, basil, dill, lemon zest, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Mix well until evenly combined.

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare the Halibut: Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Make the Herb Crust: Drizzle the olive oil over the top of each halibut fillet, followed by the herb mixture, pressing it gently to adhere to the fish.

Bake the Halibut: Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for about 15-18 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the herb crust is golden brown.

Finish with Lemon: Remove the halibut from the oven and drizzle it with fresh lemon juice. Allow it to rest for a couple of minutes.

Serve: Plate the herb crusted halibut and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing.
