Baked Halibut with Mango & Avocado Salsa

This is one of my favorite springtime meals. It’s simple and easy-to-prepare with loads of great flavor. Although you can use almost any fish in this recipe, we prefer the medium weight and mild flavor of halibut. Try to find wild-caught California or Pacific Halibut. The tropical fruit flavors in the salsa pair nicely with a Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc.

4 medium Halibut Fillets

Olive Oil

Salt
Pepper

2 Avocados

2 Mangoes

1 Tbsp Shallot

2 cloves Garlic

1 Tbsp Olive Oil

2 Tbsp Lemon Juice

Salt

Pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat each halibut fillet with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place in a baking dish and bake in oven until done, approximately 10-15 minutes. Dice avocado and mangoes into ¼ inch pieces. Place in medium sized bowl and add shallots, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice. Mix together and add salt and pepper to taste. Spoon ½ cup salsa on top of halibut.
