How to Make Roasted Halibut With Tomato Cream Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons Herbes de Provence (or substitute with 1 tsp each thyme, savory, lavender, and rosemary), 2 cloves minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  3. Brush the mixture evenly over 2 (6-ounce) halibut fillets and 1 cup of peeled and deveined shrimp.
  4. Marinate the fish and shrimp in the herb mixture for at least 30 minutes (longer is better!).
  5. Lightly oil a small ovenproof baking dish.
  6. Place the halibut fillets in the center of the baking dish.
  7. Scatter 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes around the fish and sprinkle with an additional 1 teaspoon of Herbes de Provence.
  8. Bake for 5 minutes.
  9. Add the marinated shrimp to the baking dish.
  10. Bake for another 5-8 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through and the shrimp are pink and opaque, and the juices begin to rise.
  11. Remove from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes.
  12. Carefully pour the pan juices and tomatoes into a small saucepan.
  13. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens.
  14. If desired, use an immersion blender to create a smooth sauce.
  15. Serve the halibut fillets, surrounded by shrimp, and generously topped with the creamy tomato herb sauce.
