Equipment

Large oven ready roasting pan or skillet

Ingredients

2 lbs halibut, sliced into 4 fillets
olive oil
1 large lemon
salt and fresh cracked black pepper

salsa

1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup olives, both green and black, halved
1/4 cup golden raisins
2 Tbsp slivered almonds
2 Tbsp capers
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp parsley, minced
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp red wine or sherry vinegar

garnish

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F.
Lightly oil your baking pan and place the fish in the pan. Drizzle your fish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Squeeze half a lemon over the top. Thinly slice the other half and tuck in around the fish.
Place the pan in the oven and immediately turn the heat down to 400F. Bake until the fish just flakes with a fork, about 20 minutes. (The exact time will vary according to the thickness of your fish, and how cold it is when you pop it in the oven.)
Meanwhile toss the salsa ingredients together. Give it a taste to adjust the dressing. Note: I do not recommend making the salsa very far in advance. The tomatoes, in particular, do not hold up well in the refrigerator.
Serve the hot fish topped with a generous portion of the salsa. Season with fresh cracked black pepper and garnish with fresh parsley.
