Halibut with Sweet Potato Fries and Lime is a light and flavorful dish featuring tender, flaky halibut paired with crispy sweet potato fries and a zesty lime twist.
Ingredients
2 sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch wedges
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 (4-ounce) halibut fillets, skin removed
1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley
Lime wedges, for serving
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the sweet potato wedges with 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the halibut fillets for 3-4 minutes per side until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the sweet potato fries from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve the halibut fillets with the sweet potato fries, garnished with lime wedges for squeezing over the top for a burst of zesty flavor.
