Pan-Seared Halibut with Wild Rice and Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 halibut fillets (6 oz each)
- 1 cup wild rice
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large pot, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a boil. Add the wild rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- While the rice is cooking, prepare the roasted vegetables. Place the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the halibut fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- To serve, divide the cooked wild rice among 4 plates. Top with a piece of pan-seared halibut and a portion of roasted vegetables. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
