Broiled Halibut with Rosemary

FLAKY FISH

Broiled Halibut with Rosemary was one of the first fish dishes I've made in a long time. It’s light and crispy and very simple to make. The fish is dipped in olive oil and rosemary and broiled coated with breadcrumbs.

I served it with a light lettuce and tomato salad and that was it. Halibut is a light, flaky, low fat fish that is an excellent choice for broiling of frying. For this recipe you can buy fresh or frozen halibut fillets. This fish doesn’t have a fishy flavor like some seafood and it flakes with a fork when properly cooked.

Of course this Broiled Halibut dish would not be complete without the rosemary. I know I seem to be on a rosemary kick the last couple of months but it’s so good with this fish I just couldn’t resist using it again. Like I already mentioned I served this fish with a light salad but you can also serve it with some steamed asparagus or string beans.

Keep it simple in order to enjoy the fish.
