Chopped walnuts, herbs, and panko become a crisp, flavorful coating for the halibut fillets.
Ingredients
Makes 6 servings
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Mix walnuts, panko, and all herbs in small bowl; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brush each fish fillet with 1 tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place fish on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle panko-herb mixture atop fish, dividing equally and pressing to adhere. Roast fish until just opaque in center, about 8 minutes. If crisper topping desired, preheat broiler and broil fish about 1 minute, watching carefully to prevent burning. Transfer fish to plates; garnish with lemon wedges.
Step 2

Back to TopProbably more of a 3+ and am working on making this a 4! Wasn't sure where all of the melted butter went so I assumed the other 5 T went in with the panko herb mixture. Added some lemon zest and parmesan cheese to the crust and also squeezed a bit of fresh lemon over the filet when done cooking. Served with a lemon and fresh herb pilaf which was a nice pairing.

Absolutely delicious! I added Parmesan cheese to the topping and served this with the orange saffron aioli from one of the other halibut recipes.

I cooked 2 halibut fillets in a glass dish for 8 minutes, then 5 minutes, and they still weren't cooked almost at all so I left it in for another 10 minutes. My fish wasn't completely thawed and I'm thinking that's why it took so long to cook. I tend to make halibut weaver or halibut supreme, as I'm new to cooking fish and that's what was recommended, and was excited to find this recipe. It was absolutely delicious and I'm adding it to my recipe binder.

Made this topping twice and put it on cod. Easy, quick and tasty. Will definitely make again.

I had some fresh halibut from Alaska and used this recipe to make dinner for a couple of friends. They said it was the best halibut they have ever had. Simple and easy. Will definitely Italy make again.

Totally tasteless except for topping. Used expensive fresh halibut, brushed fish with a bit of Dijon to help topping stick. Fish was perfectly cooked. Not fault of recipe. Will try topping on tastier fish like salmon or Arctic char.

A solid recipe. I added melted butter to the panko mix before I patted it on. I lowered the temp to 400 after 8 minutes and let it cook further (my fillet was large). My husband said this was better than the fish he just had at a fancy (pricey) restaurant at lunch. The key to success on this one is not overcooking the fish.

Very good recipe, simple and quick to put together. I would give it 3.5 forks. I made it with salmon instead also felt the crust need a bit of butter so I dribbled some of the melted butter on top of the crust before roasting it. Very delicious and uncomplicated.

I like this a lot, and the only thing I might do differently is add a pat of butter on each fillet before baking. It needed just a tad of buttery flavor which I did not get with the original recipe.

Messed up on my last post. I didn't have any walnuts but I toasted almond slivers and it was great. Try it!!

Made this recipe 2x in 1 wk. The first time, I tried to be healthier and substitute butter with olive oil. DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE. 2nd time I made it for Mother's day for 10ppl correctly with butter. Everyone loved it. Next time I will squeeze a little lemon on it before cooking it in the oven. Both times I have made it, I measured the temp in the oven to confirm it is 450 inside (not just on the over knobb) and 8 minutes is the exact amount of time needed. (used 2 different ovens).
