Equipment

  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons of Meyer lemon juice
  • 16 ounces of wild-caught Alaskan halibut fillet boneless
  • 4 large free-range organic eggs
  • 1/2 tablespoon of freshly ground Tellicherry black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons of hand-picked organic fresh thyme leaves
  • 4 colossal Cerignola olives pitted
  • 1 tablespoon of Himalayan pink salt
  • 2 tablespoons of cold-pressed organic extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • Set the oven to 375°F (190°C) to preheat while you prepare the halibut.
  • Rinse the halibut fillet under cold water and pat it dry using paper towels. Place the fillet on a clean cutting board.
  • Sprinkle the Himalayan pink salt and freshly ground Tellicherry black pepper evenly over both sides of the halibut fillet.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the Meyer lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and half of the fresh thyme leaves. Mix these ingredients well.
  • Place the seasoned halibut fillet in a baking dish. Pour the lemon-thyme marinade over the fillet, ensuring it's evenly coated. Let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Take the pitted Cerignola olives and scatter them around the halibut fillet in the baking dish.
  • Once the oven is preheated, place the baking dish with the marinated halibut in the oven. Bake for approximately 15-20 minutes or until the halibut is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • While the halibut is baking, you can poach or fry the eggs according to your preference.
  • Carefully remove the baked halibut from the oven. Plate each portion of halibut, topping it with the remaining fresh thyme leaves for a burst of freshness. Serve alongside the cooked eggs.

Notes

  • Make sure to season the haddock fillets with salt and pepper before cooking to bring out the full flavor of the fish.
  • Try adding other herbs and spices to the sauce, such as rosemary, oregano, or paprika, for an extra kick of flavor.
  • For an even creamier sauce, try adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard or a tablespoon of capers.
  • If you’re short on time, you can skip the simmering step and just serve the haddock with the sauce.
  • To make the dish lower in fat, use nonfat or low-fat cream instead of heavy cream.
  • To make the dish gluten-free, use gluten-free flour instead of regular flour.
