Scampi-Style Halibut













INGREDIENTS

 

2       large shallots, sliced (about 1/2 cup)
1      small red bell pepper, cut into thin bite-size strips (about 1 cup)
1      can (14 oz) Progresso® artichoke hearts, drained, halved
1/4   cup fresh lemon juice
5      tablespoons butter, melted
1      teaspoon garlic-pepper blend
1/2   cup Progresso® panko crispy bread crumbs
4      halibut fillets (about 6 oz each), skin removed
2      tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
 

DIRECTIONS

 

1 Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 11x7-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. 2 In medium bowl, mix shallots, bell pepper, artichokes, lemon juice, 3 tablespoons of the butter and the garlic-pepper blend. Spoon into baking dish. 3 In small bowl, mix bread crumbs and remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Pat 2 tablespoons crumb mixture on top of each fillet. Place fillets on vegetables in baking dish. 4 Bake uncovered 12 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork and crumb topping is golden brown. Sprinkle with parsley.
To help the crumb topping stick to the fish, lightly spray fillets with cooking spray before topping with crumbs.
To be sure fish is done, use a food thermometer and bake until the thermometer reads 140°F.
For a new flavor, sprinkle chopped fresh oregano or basil leaves over the fish instead of the parsley.
