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:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cover to keep warm.
  6. When the fish is cooked, transfer it to serving plates. Spoon the bell pepper mixture over the fish.
