Sheet Pan Garlic Butter Halibut With Spring Vegetables Recipe - Tasting Table

Sheet pan meals simplify weeknight cooking by roasting everything together on one tray with minimal hands-on time. Halibut, typically cooked in a skillet with butter and lemon, can be prepared on a sheet pan while staying moist and flavorful. Spring vegetables such as asparagus, spring onions, and fiddleheads pair well with the fish and cook alongside it. The meal uses fingerling potatoes, olive oil, salt, pepper, butter, minced garlic, capers, and lemon juice to season and infuse flavor. The oven is preheated to 425°F, a foil-lined baking sheet is used, and the components are arranged for roasting until ready to eat in less than an hour.

"Sheet pan meals are the heroes of a busy weeknight. With barely any hands-on time, the recipe practically makes itself, roasting seamlessly on one tray in the oven until everything is ready to eat. The whole meal comes together at once, each element fitting snugly on the sheet tray so that all of the flavors are infused into one."

"Though there are ways to make sheet pan meals more elaborate, they aren't known for being a particularly gourmet offering. That's why halibut isn't a fish you'd generally find in sheet pan recipes, being that the best way to cook such a buttery, expensive fish is in a skillet with plenty of butter and lemon. It can still be done, though, and when the fish is accompanied by fresh spring vegetables like asparagus, spring onions, and tender, beautiful fiddleheads, the meal is restaurant-worthy with only half of the work."

"Still coated in plenty of butter and lemon, the halibut stays moist, bright, and flavorful, and is ready to eat in less than an hour. What pairs well with sheet pan halibut?

Arrange the potatoes on the baking sheet cut-sides down. Roast the potatoes until tender, then add the remaining ingredients so everything finishes together on the same tray."
