Recipe: Steamed Halibut with Greek Salad Salsa SERVES 6

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups seeded and finely chopped tomatoes (about 3 plum tomatoes)
2 tablespoons capers, drained and coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
3/4 cup cubed feta cheese (1/4-inch cubes)
12 Greek olives, pitted and finely chopped
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Six 8-ounce halibut fillets
1 cup white wine
10 whole peppercorns
6 whole fresh basil leaves, plus 4 leaves, thinly sliced, for garnish

1. Make the salsa. In a medium bowl, mix together the tomatoes, capers, onion, cheese, olives, thyme, olive oil, and salt and pepper. Set aside.

2. Spray a collapsible steaming rack with cooking spray and place 2 halibut fillets on the rack, skin-side down. Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper.

3. In a medium pot, bring the wine, peppercorns, whole basil leaves, and 1 cup of water to a boil. Lay the rack with the fillets in the pot, cover, and steam the fish for 9 to 10 minutes. Gently transfer the steamed halibut fillets to a plate and cover with a domed lid to keep warm. Repeat the process 2 more times to cook the remaining fillets.

4. Serve the steamed halibut on individual plates with Greek salsa on top or on the side. Garnish with the ribbons of basil.

Everything looks super delicious! Especially the halibut! I love fish, so this would be a great recipe.

I really like the Cumin Deviled Eggs recipe and the Dark Chocolate covered items sound terrific! I'm not entirely sure about the chocolate covered olives though! I really don't like fish so I do rely on a high grade omega 3 supplement with as much DHA as EPA.
