The Fish for Dinner feature chronicles my education in the ways of fish-cookery. I grew up avoiding fish other than sticks and was well into adulthood before adding the real deal into my diet, usually at a restaurant. The impetus to cook more fish at home comes from joining a sustainable fish program through Hooked on Fish, like a CSA that delivers boxes of farm-fresh produce but with seafood instead. I’ll tell you what we made and how we liked it, plus occasionally a few tips and fishin’ tunes too.

The Occasion:
Dinner for two on a weeknight; beautiful piece of fresh fish; no time to mess with anything elaborate

Why this Works: The golden, crispy, crunchy bits baked on top more than make up for time spent chopping all those herbs. The herb crusted halibut looks fancy and makes a satisfying meal even though it’s super-easy – especially when paired with grocery store convenience items (mashed potatoes and frozen green beans).
