This fish is a little nutty (in a totally delicious way). A coating of breadcrumbs and pistachios give seared halibut some extra crunch.

ingredients

1 cup chopped pistachios
1 cup coarse bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 skinless halibut fillets, about 5 ounces each
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine the pistachios, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.

Place the beaten egg in another shallow dish. Place the flour in a third dish.

Pat the fish dry with paper toweling. Dredge one side only of the fish first in the flour, then dip that side only in the eggs, letting any excess drain off. Last, press the egg coated side of the fish into the pistachio mixture, pressing down so the coating adheres.

Heat the olive oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Place the fish breaded-side down in the oil and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes.

Carefully turn the fish over. Place the skillet in the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Serve hot.

    Been trying to find a recipe for halibut that I like (trying to eat more fish). This one finally did it for me! I really liked the flavor and texture that the breadcrumb/pistachio coating gave it. Just the right amount of nutty/salty flavor. Thank you for sharing this recipe!! I love this website!
