Pistachio-Crusted Halibut Kebabs
Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 10 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 pound skinless Vital Choice Alaskan Halibut
- 10 to 12 skewers (4 to 6 inches in length)
- 1 cup pistachios, coarsely ground
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (or gluten free alternative)
- Vital Choice organic extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 10 to 12 butter lettuce leaves, small romaine leaves or endive
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (2% or non-fat)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, minced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes, to taste
Instructions
- Cut a piece of aluminum foil to fit a heavy-duty baking sheet; set aside. Heat the baking sheet in oven at 425°F while prepping halibut.
- Cut halibut into pieces 1-1/2 inch-wide by 2 to 3 inches long, then skewer. Mix pistachios and breadcrumbs; sprinkle onto a plate. Roll in or press pistachio crust onto halibut pieces. Spray fish and aluminum foil with olive oil spray; season bites with salt and pepper.
- Remove baking sheet from oven. Transfer foil, with halibut skewers, onto baking sheet and return to oven. Roast for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once during cooking. Cook just until fish is opaque throughout.
- Whisk together yogurt, lemon juice, mint, garlic, salt and chili flakes to make sauce. Place halibut bites on butter lettuce and serve with sauce.
