Baked Halibut

Nov 7, 2020 (updated Sep 17, 2025) (Leave a Comment)

Baked Halibut

I made the most tender baked halibut, lightly coated with almond flour, paired it with sautรฉed mushrooms and spinach, and it was heavenly. So of course I had to share it with you.

I purchased halibut from my local market that sells sustainable, wild fish (not farmed), so it was a bit on the expensive side, but made me feel good about my choice. Then I lightly coated it in almond flour and a bit of salt and baked for about 15 minutes or so. While it was baking, I sautรฉed the mushrooms and in the last few minutes before it was done I quickly sautรฉed some chopped frozen spinach. Easy dinner, and so simple and nutritious.

You can substitute halibut with another white fish, such as cod. Depending on the thickness of the fish it may bake a bit faster or slower. I like the Monterey Bay Aquarium's site for learning about sustainable seafood.
