Step 1

Use paper towels to pat the halibut fillets completely dry - this will ensure even browning. Season the fish on both sides with garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper and 1 TBS OLIVE OIL. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat 2 TBS olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the fish fillets in a single layer (you can do it in batches if all the fish won't fit in a single layer). Sear, without moving, for 4 minutes, until the edges of the fish are opaque. Flip and cook for 2-4 minutes, until cooked through.

Step 4

Remove the fish from the pan and cover tightly with foil to keep warm.

Step 5

Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the butter to the same pan. Wait for it to melt, then heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the butter is browned and smells nutty.

Step 6

Add garlic powder. Squeeze all the juice from both halves of the lemon or lime into the pan. Bring to low, about 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until volume is reduced by half. The lemon butter sauce will still be thin.

Step 7

Serve over Costco Rice Quinoa. Drizzle a little lemon butter sauce over each serving plate. Place the pan seared halibut fillets over the sauce, then drizzle more sauce on top. Finally a sprinkle of dried parsley.
