Ingredients

4 6-ounce halibut fillets

Olive oil, salt and pepper

For the Sauce:

1 cup fresh mint leaves

1 cup fresh basil leaves

1 cup Italian parsley leaves

1 head roasted garlic, pulp mashed

1/2 cup olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Red pepper flakes, to taste

Directions

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Massage olive oil into fish; season with salt and pepper. Sear in a smoking hot grill pan or cast iron skillet. Flip the fish and finish in the oven for 10 minutes, or slightly longer for thicker fillets.

In a food processor, pulse herbs with the pulp from the roasted garlic until they're roughly chopped. Run the blade while adding olive oil until it's the consistency of pesto. Season and serve on top of the cooked fish.
