Lubricate a large refractory mold with vegetable oil. Turn on the oven to warm up to a temperature of 185 ° C. You can also cook halibut in sour cream in the oven, but then we recommend preparing the side dish separately.

Cut the onions into thick half rings, mash them well with your hands so that they let the juice out, and place them in the center of the baking sheet.

Prepare the fish: if necessary, rinse and dry, season generously with a mixture of ground peppers and salt, sprinkle with dry basil. Place halibut on an onion pillow and spread thin slices of butter on top.

Peel vegetables from the skin and husk, crush the garlic with a knife (this way it will best give its aroma and taste when baked) and arrange in random order in shape.

Chop the young potatoes and carrots, put in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add a little sunflower oil and stir the vegetables until they are covered with an oily film.

Arrange the vegetables around the fish, flatten and place the dish in the hot oven. Then the halibut will be baked evenly in the oven.

When the vegetables are ready, you can take out the baking sheet. This time will be enough for the fish to cook. And thanks to the butter, it will remain juicy and get a crispy crust.

Serve fillet of halibut baked in the oven with potatoes, in portions, accompanied by fresh herbs and vegetable salad.

If you wish, you can bake the halibut whole in the oven. The recipe below is perfect for the daily meals of the whole family. Moreover, the fish cooked using it is also worthy of a festive table. On a large baking sheet, you can bake several carcasses at once, which greatly simplifies the cooking process.

For cooking you will need:

• small carcass of halibut;
• 65 ml of sunflower oil;
• 2-3 lemons;
• 50 ml soy sauce;
• 1 tbsp. a spoonful of honey;

• 5 sprigs of dill and parsley.

How to bake whole halibut

Prepare the fish for baking: peel it without damaging the skin, remove the insides and cut out the gills from the head. For an aesthetic look, we recommend not removing the head of the fish.

Rinse the fish and pat dry with kitchen paper towels. Brush it with softened butter. Season the carcass well with salt and a mixture of ground peppers and set aside for a while.

In a separate bowl, mix soy sauce with a little vegetable oil, add chili and liquid honey. Stir and coat generously with the fish, leaving a little of the mixture to grease and glaze during the baking process.

Coarsely chop fresh herbs and place them in the belly of the fish. It is enough to cut one lemon into thick rings, and the second, on the contrary, as thin as possible, almost transparent rings.

Place thick lemon slices in the belly of the fish. Put some of the thin rings on a baking sheet, place the fish on them and place the remaining slices on top.

Brush the halibut with the remaining sauce and place in the preheated oven for at least 25 minutes. Remove the mold after 12-15 minutes. Once again, brush the sauce over the surface of the halibut, return the shape to the oven and bake until tender.

After cooking the whole halibut in the oven, serve it as it is, without dividing it into portions. To do this, take a serving dish and decorate it with fresh herbs. Put the finished fish on it, put slices of fresh lemon, halves of cherry tomatoes, fresh or lightly salted cucumbers cut into strips next to it. The halibut is ready in the oven.

If you intend to bake the whole halibut in the oven, try to get an already gutted and peeled carcass, this will save you not only energy, but also shorten the cooking time.

To make the potatoes golden and appetizing when baked, you should season them with a little turmeric or sweet paprika. It is these spices that can transform the root vegetable.

Step 1: prepare the fish.

Fish steaks must be fresh or thawed. For halibut, take one large steak and cut it in half across.
Rinse the fish, pat dry with disposable paper towels, season with salt and pepper and let sit for a couple of minutes at room temperature.

Step 2: prepare the tomatoes.

Rinse the cherry tomatoes, dry and cut into halves.

Step 3: cook fish steaks in the oven.

In a skillet, melt the butter over low heat, mixing it with the vegetable oil. Add garlic, dill and green onions here, mix, heat a little and remove from heat. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice, cherry tomatoes, salt and ground pepper immediately. Stir well to create a kind of sauce.
Place the fish steaks in the same skillet and pour the sauce over them.

Place fish steaks in preheated until 190 degrees oven. And cook everything for 20 minutes... But, later 11-12 minutes, fish steaks need to be turned over so that they are thoroughly baked on all sides.
As soon as you take out the finished fish from the oven, it should be immediately served for lunch or dinner.

Step 4: serve fish steaks in the oven.

Transfer the oven-baked fish steaks to a serving plate, top with the remaining sauce in the pan, arrange the tomato halves and serve. Vegetable salad is best as a side dish, but boiled rice or pasta will also come in handy.
