Fresh Herb Crusted Halibut

Makes: 4 Portions

Ingredients:
1-1/2 lb. Halibut filet (about 4-4oz portions, about 1 inch thick)
1 C toasted and finely chopped hazelnuts (I used my mini-food processor)
2 Tbsp Fresh Parsley chopped
1 Tbsp Fresh Rosemary chopped
1 Tbsp Fresh Thyme chopped
1/4 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
1/4 tsp. sea salt
Grated orange zest (from about 1/2 orange)
Egg Mixture:
1 tsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp soya milk
2 egg whites
Orange Slices (For Garnish)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease baking dish with olive oil. In a medium shallow bowl, beat egg whites with almond mild. Blend toasted hazelnuts in a food processor and add herbs, salt, pepper, and orange zest. Mix well. Place halibut filets in egg mixture, one at a time, and then press into hazelnut mixture. Really press the nuts all over the halibut filets, and then place in baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes. Halibut will be slightly opaque in center.

Garnish with orange slices. We served this with a side of steamed asparagus and a green salad. Give it a try...It's a recipe keeper!
