Ingredients:

2 halibut steaks thawed (about 1-inch thick, 8-ounces each)
½ teaspoon salt more to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter softened
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
lemon wedges for serving

Directions:

Pat halibut steaks dry with a paper towel.

Preheat a pan over medium-high heat. Add the oil and let heat.

Salt and pepper both sides of the halibut steaks and then add to the pan.

Cook for 8 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking, until golden brown on the outside, and nearly cooked through.

Top each steak with a tablespoon of butter and teaspoon of lemon juice.

Cover the pan with a lid and continue cooking over low heat for about 2 minutes to let the butter melt over the halibut.

Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the fresh parsley before serving.

Servings: 1 halibut steak
