With this Lemon Garlic Baked Halibut, maintaining a healthy diet has never been easier. In just 25 minutes, you’ll have a delicious piece of halibut baked to perfection in a marinade of lemon and garlic.
I personally enjoy a good seafood dish, whether it’s white fish, dense and flaky salmon, or small and juicy shrimp. Just thinking about Brazilian shrimp soup or Vietnamese fish tacos gets my taste buds tingling. If you share the same love for seafood but want something that’s tasty and simple, then this recipe is perfect for you!
This recipe is very simple, with a lot of lemon and garlic, and a touch of red pepper flakes and smoked paprika for a beautiful color.
I find baking the fish to be easier, but grilling it on a cedar plank works great too. I marinate the fish for about an hour, but 30 minutes to 2 hours is sufficient. Then, I bake it for about 20 minutes until it’s nicely flaky. To serve, garnish it with parsley, lemon wedges, and freshly chopped tomatoes.
It’s easy! Whoever said that healthy meals cannot be prepared quickly has clearly never tried my recipes. But don’t just take my word for it – try it yourself.
Ingredients you will need
- Olive Oil – We want an oil with a neutral and pleasant flavor that forms the base of our marinade.

- Garlic – Use as much or as little as you like.
- Seasoning – Salt and pepper.
- Herbs – Dried dill and chopped fresh parsley.
