How to Make Almond Baked Halibut
Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
Place halibut fillets (about 6 oz each) in a shallow baking dish.
Season fillets generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 clove minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Brush mixture evenly over halibut.
Bake for 10 minutes.
Carefully flip halibut fillets. Baste with pan juices.
Reduce oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Continue baking for 15-20 minutes, or until halibut flakes easily with a fork, basting several times.
While halibut bakes, sauté 1/4 cup slivered almonds in 1 tablespoon butter until golden brown. Set aside.
Garnish baked halibut with toasted almonds and lime wedges before serving.
