Ingredients

  1. 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  2. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  3. 4 (6-ounce) halibut steaks
  4. Sea salt
  5. White pepper
  6. 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  7. 16 young asparagus
  8. 1 small shallot, minced
  9. 2 garlic cloves, minced
  10. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  11. 3/4 cup grated Parmesan

Instructions

  1. For halibut: Preheat a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Season halibut with salt and pepper and dust with the flour, shaking off the excess. As your butter starts to brown, gently lay each steak in your pan. Allow to cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, approximately 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  2. For asparagus: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  3. Trim and clean your asparagus. In a large bowl add cleaned asparagus, minced garlic, minced shallots, and extra-virgin olive oil. Season, to taste. Lay prepared asparagus on a half sheet pan and roast until tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Right before taking your roasted asparagus out of the oven liberally top with freshly grated parmesan cheese. The heat of your pan should melt your cheese.
  4. To serve, place 4 pieces of asparagus on a plate, top with golden brown halibut steak. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Garnish with a sprig of chervil or chives

Everything was delicious! This was very easy to make and tasted great! I was a little nervous about making something without a picture, since I usually am interested in the food on here by how it looks… but this turned out to be just lovely.

This was a greal meal. The halibut turned out moist on the inside and a little crispy on the outside. Delicious and healthy. Asparagus was super good with the parmesan and went perfectly with halibut. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect dinner! Super delicious!

Tonight, I Googled and Googled for a good first time halibut recipe. I ended up here! Boy, am I glad. I loved the light crisp from the flour. What a perfectly cute and delicious hunk o’ fish this recipe makes. The asparagus rules, too. This is a definite keeper. Thank you!

We are regular asparagus eaters and the additional parmesan gave it a good flavor. While I was tempted to make the halibut per the recipe, we decided to add parmesan to it also. Our of our favorite local recipes is “Parmesan Crusted Halibut” and I have not been able to mimic it yet, but adding the parmesan after the flour sure did come close! We thought it was delicious!

It was absolutely amazing but did add some lemon and let the asparagus cook alittle longer about ten min. i would say.
Victor Huff
This is a very easy and tasty recipe I added a squeeze of lemon, garlic and parsley to the halibut and I could not imagine this dish without it, the asparagas are so good you will crave them regularly.

This was perfect. We made it with parmesean mashed potatoes, and it was one of the best meals ever. I followed the recipe exactly, and the whole meal was done and we were eating in 35 min. I will definately make this again.
