Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 fillets halibut fresh, about 200g each
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 clove garlic finely chopped
  • 2 field tomatoes diced
  • 1 cup Castelvetrano olives sliced in half
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons Italian parsley finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Italian basil finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Season both sides of the halibut fillets with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a frying pan over high heat. Once hot add the olive oil.
  • Place the fillets of halibut presentation-side down into the pan. Sear for 2-3 minutes, or until a golden crust forms. Once a crust has formed, add the garlic and flip the halibut fillets over to the other side.
  • Add the tomatoes, olives, red chili flakes and oregano to the pan and mix to combine.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, cover with a lid, and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is fully cooked and the tomatoes have started to break down and create a sauce.
  • Serve immediately with the chopped parsley and basil on top as a garnish. Enjoy!
