Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Wipe the halibut steaks dry and brush with lemon juice and one-fourth cup olive oil. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the tomatoes in half. If they have a great deal of seeds, remove some. Place tomatoes cut-side up in a flameproof baking dish, tightly packed because they will shrink in cooking. Sprinkle them with garlic, parsley, salt and pepper and add enough olive oil to come about one-fourth inch up the sides. Cook on top of the stove for 15 minutes, or until tomatoes are tender, then transfer them to the oven and bake for about one hour or until they have shrunk to about half their original size.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, preheat broiler or charcoal grill. Season the halibut steaks with salt and pepper and broil for six to seven minutes on each side, turning once. Place on a serving dish. Remove tomatoes from baking dish with a slotted spoon, leaving most of the oil behind, and arrange them on the serving dish around the halibut.

Tip
  • This is very good garnished with grilled leeks in addition to the tomatoes.

This recipe came out great. I grilled a two pound fillet of halibut in a hinged fish basket, so there was no sticking to the grill. I used my cast iron skillet to cook the tomatoes./Users/richardfloyd/Desktop/halibut with roasted tomatoes.jpeg

Preparation time is actually closer to two hours, because the tomatoes require 75 minutes of cooking time, as stated in the recipe.
