Although I’m usually one to go for spicy, robust entrees and more mild side dishes, I enjoyed this fish recipe as much for its ease of preparation as for its mellow taste. I made the Parmesan-Parsley butter in less than 10 min. early in the AM, put it in the ’fridge to firm all day while I did other things and then baked the dish for the PM meal. Also, this recipe gave me a chance to switch things up by pairing this entree’s mild taste with a side dish that had more ’zing’. The only change I made to the ingredients was that I substituted Talapia fillets for the Halibut. Not only were the Talapia already in my freezer but, since they were skinless, I could skip the step where I had to try to skin 4 very hot fish fillets. Additionally, I only have to cook for two so I prepped only 2 fillets and returned the remaining 1/2 of the Parmesan-Parsley butter to the ’fridge to be used later in the week over vegetables or baked potatoes. Overall, a nice change from the usual ’squeeze of lemon’ fish recipes and using the butter with other dishes increases the recipe’s versatility. This is something I’ll make again.
