At the heart of Parmesan Crusted Halibut lies the halibut, a fish revered for its tender and succulent flesh. Its naturally mild flavor provides the perfect canvas for the culinary magic that unfolds.
The Parmesan crust, the star of the show, is a harmonious blend of grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, freshly chopped parsley, and minced garlic. This mixture forms a flavorful, crispy coating that encapsulates the halibut, adding a delightful contrast to the tender fish within. Here, the ocean’s bounty meets the rich allure of Parmesan.

Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
-
Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels. Place the fish on a plate and drizzle the lemon juice over it. Brush both sides of each fillet with olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
-
In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, and minced garlic.
-
Place the fish on the baking dish. Press the Parmesan mixture evenly onto the top of each halibut fillet. Make sure to coat the fillets generously.
-
Bake the halibut for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust becomes golden brown, and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
-
Once done, remove the Parmesan Crusted Halibut from the oven. Garnish with fresh lemon wedges.
