Crusted Wasabi Baked Halibut

This baked halibut recipe is deceptively simple and uses only four ingredients but the results are amazing. The wasabi mayonnaise adds both delicate and sharp flavors and the crumbs make the outside crispy.

Wasabi is very strong so if you are making your own wasabi mayonnaise, add a tiny bit at a time until it tastes good. This baked halibut recipe is very good served with some seasonal steamed vegetables and boiled rice. You can serve it with lemon wedges if you don't have any limes.

Ingredients -

1 ½ lbs halibut fillet
⅓ cup potato chip crumbs or cornflake crumbs
1 teaspoon grated wasabi root
⅓ cup mayonnaise
⅓ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 lime, cut into 6 wedges

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Cut the halibut into 6 equally sized pieces and lay them on the foil.

Combine the cilantro and wasabi with the mayonnaise and spread this mixture over the halibut.

Sprinkle the crumbs on top and bake for about 15 minutes or until the crumbs are starting to turn brown and the fish is cooked through.

Serve with the lime wedges.
