Seared Halibut


Seared Halibut, originally uploaded by LoStephenson.

Last night was date night and this recipe was a hit! I love cooking but usually I'm a bit slow at it and create quite the disaster in the kitchen afterwards of spills and twenty dirty dishes. So I browsed through Epicurious.com for a fresh, quick, and easy fish dish that would be great for two, lo and behold: Seared Halibut with Haricots Verts, Scallions, and White Wine Sauce.

It took about twenty minutes to make overall and you only need two saucepans! Plus the best part is that the recipe calls for a 1/4 cup of a dry white wine for the sauce so you have plenty left over to drink with your meal as well. I used a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc which worked great for the sauce and as a pairing to the halibut dish. One last tip, add basmati rice on the dish and then lay the green beans and halibut on top to add more substance to the dish! Enjoy!!
