One-pan Baked Halibut with Vegetables — Easy fish recipe with cherry tomatoes and green beans that takes 25 minutes to make and baked in a Mediterranean lemon, garlic and thyme sauce.
This colorful dish is very simple yet so delicious to make. It is perfect for a quick week day dinner or even a family and friends’ gathering.
Halibut and vegetables tossed in a zesty citrus sauce with garlic, thyme, olive oil and spices and baked in one pan.. This recipe has all the Mediterranean flavors in it.
I like the addition of coriander seeds to this dish, they just elevate the taste and complement the rest of the ingredients.
Why I Use Wild Alaskan Halibut
Wild Alaskan Halibut is one of my favorite fish to cook. I like its firm delicate texture, and subtle flavor which makes a great candidate for any seafood dish you can imagine, not to mention that it goes great with all sorts of seasonings.
Halibut flavor can be easily enhanced with herbs, sauces, simple citrus additions or even fruit-based salsas.
I prepared a Mediterranean sauce with this dish and a mango based salsa as an alternative.

I love this recipe! I made almost the exact dish last evening and it turned out perfectly and very tasteful. Next time I make this (thankfully I bought tons of fresh Halibut in season since I’m East Coast), I’m going to try the coriander seeds. Sounds very interesting. Thank you for crafting and sharing a delightful recipe!
