Ingredients

Halibut steaks, 1 inch thick

Butter, 4 tablespoons

Olive oil, 1/4 cup

Preparation

Rinse and pat dry the halibut. Add butter and olive oil into a sauté pan. Heat until hot but not smoking. Put halibut in, skin side down. Lower heat to medium low. Set a timer for 10 minutes. Keep watch the whole time. After 6 minutes, use a metal spatula to turn over. Cook another 4 minutes then turn off the heat. Check for doneness. Use two forks to pull apart layers. If solid and not jelly-like, it’s done. You can allow the filets to rest in the pan for 2 more minutes.
