Equipment

  • Baking Dish
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 4 small halibut fillets about 4 ounces each
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 low sodium butter crackers I used Ritz
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 lemon
  • Thyme or Parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place halibut filets on a plate, skin side down. Remove any bones, and pat the halibut dry.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the oil to the bottom of a baking dish (I used a 13 x 9 casserole dish). Place the salmon in the greased dish, skin side down.
  • In a medium bowl, add the butter crackers, minced garlic, and melted butter. Mash with a fork until crackers have crumbled and the mixture is well combined.
  • Top each halibut filet with 1-2 tablespoons of the cracker mixture. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over each filet.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until fish is opaque, white, and flaky, and reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. The cracker topping should begin to brown.
  • Garnish with thyme or parsley, and squeeze a little extra lemon juice over each fish filet before serving, enjoy!
