Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-ounce each) Halibut fillets
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the broiler to high and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with a small amount of olive oil.

Step 3

Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Brush the mixture generously over the top and sides of each halibut fillet, coating them evenly.

Step 6

Place the baking sheet under the broiler and broil for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the halibut is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The top should be golden and lightly crisped.

Step 7

Remove the halibut from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Step 8

Serve immediately with optional lemon wedges on the side for added brightness.
