Ingredients

For the Lemon Herb Oil:

  • 2 lemons zested and juiced
  • 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 ½ tablespoons freshly minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons celery seeds
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¾ teaspoon ground coriander

For the Fish and Vegetables

  • 2 medium-sized zucchini washed, dried and sliced into wedges or cut into rounds*
  • 1 bunch broccolini washed, dried, and ends trimmed*
  • 3/4 lb cherry or grape tomatoes any color, left whole
  • 1 large onion red or white, skin removed, sliced into wedges through the root
  • 1 ½ lbs halibut fillet sliced into 4 fillets

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees on the Roast setting. If your oven doesn’t have Roast, use Bake.
  • Mix all of the lemon herb oil ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place vegetables and fish on the sheet. Keep the vegetables spread out in one layer for best results.
  • Using your hands or tongs, thoroughly coat vegetables and fish with lemon herb oil.
  • Roast for 8 minutes and carefully remove fish to a plate and lightly cover with foil to keep warm. (The fish will finish cooking once it's put under the broiler. See next step below. If you like well-done fish, keep the fish on the pan.) Continue roasting the vegetables for an additional 7 or so minutes, until they are browned in spots and tomatoes have softened. Remove tray from oven.
  • Then set your oven to Broil. Place the fish back on the sheet pan and place baking sheet on top rack and broil (keeping the oven door slightly ajar) for another 2-3 minutes or so, watching carefully. The cherry tomatoes may begin to burst under the broiler.
  • Remove fish and vegetables from oven, season with more salt and pepper, and either serve directly from the sheet pan family style or plate separately with a piece of halibut and a hearty helping of mixed vegetables.

Notes

*Feel free to use your favorite vegetables or whatever you have in the fridge such as green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes... you get the idea.
If you want to roast more vegetables then will fit on a single sheet pan, simply line another sheet pan with parchment or foil. You may need to whip up some extra lemon herb oil to coat all of the veggies.
As with any fish, you don't want to overcook it. It's ready when it flakes easily. For best results, serve immediately.
Sprinkle some feta cheese over the vegetables to add another layer of flavor to the recipe.
This recipe can easily be halved.
