Stuffed Halibut

4 ingredients
6 steps

Ingredients

  • Two (1 pound each) halibut steaks (3/4-inch thick)
  • About 1/4 cup green olive paste (olivada)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Olive oil to drizzle over the top

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. 2
    Remove skin from steaks and the flesh away from the bone; you'll end up with 4 pieces of fish from each steak so you have 8 small fillets in all.
  3. 3
    Cut a slit on the side of each piece and stuff with some of olivada.
  4. 4
    Lightly season the two sides of the steaks with salt and pepper.
  5. 5
    Transfer them to a baking pan, drizzle the top with olive oil and bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until just cooked through.
  6. 6
    Keep your eye on the fish; you really don't want to overbake it or it will dry out; the insides should have a trace of translucence in them.
