How to Make Creole-Sauced Halibut
Tender baked fish fillets are topped with a sauce that starts with the “holy trinity” of onion, celery, and bell pepper, then builds flavor with the addition of tomatoes, green onions, capers, and a touch of hot-pepper sauce. Serve this with brown or wild rice and a fresh salad like Chopped Veggie Salad with Feta.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Place the fish with the skin side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
- Meanwhile, lightly spray a large skillet with cooking spray. Cook the onion, bell pepper, celery, thyme, and garlic over medium-high heat for 3 minutes, or until the onion is soft, stirring occasionally.
- Stir the tomatoes, green onions, and capers into the bell pepper mixture. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cover to keep warm.
- When the fish is cooked, transfer it to serving plates. Spoon the bell pepper mixture over the fish.
