PESTO HALIBUT

Pesto Halibut image

The mildness of halibut contrasts perfectly with the robust flavor of pesto in this recipe. It takes only minutes to get the fish ready for the oven, leaving you plenty of time to get started on your side dishes. Nearly anything goes well with this entree. -April Showalter, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
