Blue Cheese Baked Halibut

Blue Cheese Baked Halibut

Some friends were talking about this savory dish a couple days ago. I googled a recipe, found a weird one, and adjusted it a bit. Here’s my best guess at what went down in our kitchen. You can’t exactly screw this one up unless you overcook it. I promise, this one is more delicious than it looks, as long as you're a blue cheese fan! 
 
INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 pound wild Alaska halibut
  • 1/4 cup blue cheese (the real stuff, not the dressing)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup Mayo
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 5 or so leaves of fresh basil, chopped
  • A dash of salt
  • Chives to sprinkle on top
PREPARATION:
Set oven to 450
  • In a small bowl mix together cheese, butter, mayo, lemon juice and garlic.
  • Add in all the remaining seasonings and basil; mix well and set aside.
  • Arrange the fillets in a single layer on the prepared pan, sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake for 12 minutes. It may need more time if your fish is thick. Your fish should be almost finished before the next step.
  • Broil for 2 minutes, until the top is browned and the sides bubbly. It should flake easily with a fork.
  • Sprinkle chopped chives on top
  • Enjoy with some fresh bread and dip it into the extra butter/blue cheese.
