A quick and easy fish recipe made with only a few ingredients that is packed with protein AND delicious.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 lb halibut (2 fillets)
- 6-8 Tbs lemon juice (3-4 Tbs per fillet, depends on how much sauce you want)
- sea salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- 3 Tbs greek yogurt (1.5 Tbs per fillet) ( use 0-2% fat greek yogurt)
- 2 branches of rosemary (1 per fillet)
- 2 slices of lemon (1 per fillet)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Take two large pieces of aluminum foil and place one halibut fillet in the middle of each piece of foil. Curve the ends of the foil, creating a bowl, so you can put liquid in without it falling out.
- Put 3-4 Tbs of lemon juice on top of each fillet. Top each fillet with heavy pinches of sea salt and black pepper.
- Then top each fillet with 1.5 Tbs of greek yogurt. Add a branch of fresh rosemary to each fillet, and a slice of lemon as well.
- Push foil around the top of the fillets until aluminum packets are closed.
- Cook the fish for 20 minutes. ( Cook time will be more or less depending on how thick your piece of halibut is )
- Note: Don’t throw away the sauce! Use the lemon greek yogurt rosemary sauce on top of rice, potatoes or veggies.
Notes
- Make sure to tightly close the foil packets so no juices leak out.
- Don't overcook the fish. Once it is flaky and no longer translucent, it is cooked.
- You can add potatoes or cauliflower or the pan to cook at the same time.
