Blueberry Halibut
Thick cut halibut splashed with flavours of sage and white balsamic topped with a refreshing blueberry yogurt and crisp graham crackers.
Serves 2
2 – 6oz halibut fillet (centre cut)
1/2 tsp fresh sage chopped
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp cracked pepper
1tsp blueberry vinegar or white balsamic vinegar
2 tsp canola oil

15 blueberries
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp lemon juice

1/8 cup graham cracker large crumbs
Procedure

Preheat oven to 400F.
Pat fillets of halibut dry with paper towel. On a large plate mix together sage, salt, pepper and vinegar to make a marinade. Add fillets to plate and rub entirely with the marinade. Allow to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
In the meantime finely chop blueberries on cutting board, transfer to a small bowl and mix with yogurt and lemon. Mix loosely to create a marbled look.
Heat a large heavy bottomed pan over high heat. Add oil to pan and allow it to be hot. Gently add each fillet to pan. Slightly lower heat and allow the fillet to begin browning- about 2-3 minutes. Once a dark golden colour is achieved flip fillet to sear the other side then place the entire pan into the oven for 8 minutes or until fish is cooked medium moist.
Remove from oven, cover with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
To serve; spread a spoonful of blueberry yogurt over top of the fillet. Top with large graham cracker crumbs.
