Description

Halibut steaks are topped with sauteed vegetables before being baked in the oven. A terrific tasting meal with little effort and lots of vitamins.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/2 bell pepper, sliced thinly
8 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
1 clove chopped fresh garlic
2 medium zucchini, julienned
6 (6 ounce) halibut steaks
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2 Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic and zucchini. Cover, and cook stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
3 Place halibut steaks into a shallow baking dish, and top with the sauteed vegetables. Season with basil, salt and pepper.
4 Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, then remove the dish, and cover the fillets with a layer of sliced tomato. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
