RECIPE
Wild Alaska Halibut with Sugar Snaps, Courgettes and Peppers

Serves 4

4 x 200 g (7 oz) fillets of wild Alaska halibut
1 tablespoon basil-flavoured olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 garlic clove, very thinly sliced
225 g (8 oz) sugar snap peas or mangetout, trimmed
1 large courgette, chopped
1 red or yellow pepper, deseeded and sliced
salt and freshly ground black pepper
fresh parsley and basil, to garnish

* Preheat the grill

* Place the halibut fillets on a baking sheet and brush them with olive oil. Sprinkle with half the lemon juice, then scatter the garlic slices over the top. Season with a little salt and black pepper. Grill for about 6 - 8 minutes, turning once, until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily when tested with a fork. Take care not to overcook the fish or the flesh will dry out

* Whilst the fish is cooking, steam the sugar snap peas, courgette and pepper for 5 - 6 minutes until tender, yet still retaining a little "bite". Season with salt and pepper and the remaining lemon juice

* Divide the vegetables between four warmed plates and serve with the halibut fillets, garnished with parsley and basil
