Ingredients

• 2 fillets Halibut fillets
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tsp garlic paste
• 2 tbsp parsley
• 1 lb asparagus spears
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small shallot
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 0.5 tsp coarsely ground pepper
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp rosemary
• 0.5 tsp sweet paprika
• 1 tsp oregano
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.25 cup water

Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, garlic paste, chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp coarsely ground pepper to create the garlic butter.
2. 2On a baking sheet, toss asparagus spears and broccoli florets with extra virgin olive oil, minced shallot, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp coarsely ground pepper.
3. 3Pat halibut fillets dry. Season both sides with dried thyme, dried rosemary, sweet paprika, dried oregano, and garlic powder. Place fillets on the baking sheet alongside the vegetables. Spoon the garlic butter evenly over each halibut fillet. Add water to the baking sheet with vegetables.
4. 4Bake for 12-18 minutes, or until halibut is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and vegetables are tender-crisp.
