Ingredients

  • 4 6-ounce halibut fillets
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • Lemons wedges (for serving)

Directions

  1. 1

    Pat the halibut dry with a paper towel. Season each fillet with parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the halibut on the hot oil skin side up, and cook without touching until golden, about 4 minutes. Carefully flip the halibut and continue cooking until you reach your desired doneness, 3 to 4 more minutes.
