Halibut With Pesto

Directions

1. 1
   {"0":"Roast the hazelnuts lightly on a baking sheet in the 350F oven until a nice aroma emerges, for about 5 to 7 minutes.","2":"Place the basil, cheese, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts and garlic in a food processor and pulse until the mixture becomes coarse paste. In the meantime, add oil in a steady stream. Pulse a few more times until emulsified and stop when your favourite consistency is achieved (I like keeping some hazelnuts in large chunks). Adjust with salt and pepper.","4":"Meanwhile, lightly sprinkle the halibut with salt and pepper and lay on an oiled baking sheet.","6":"Broil at 400F until flakey, for about 7 minutes or so depending on the thickness of the fish. Take the baking sheet out of the oven and test with a knife. The center may still look slightly pink but that's okay.","8":"Smear the pesto on top of the fish and broil until top nicely browned and the centre of the fish is no longer pink but moist, for about 5 minutes. Don't overcook. Take the fish out of the oven, cover with a piece of aluminum foil and let stand for a few minutes."}
