Apple halibut

MAKES 2 SERVINGS

4 baby red potatoes, quartered and grilled (or roasted)

2 halibut fillets (7 ounces each)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Flour (for dusting)

Oil (for sauteing)

3 strips smoked, diced bacon

1 medium apple, peeled and thinly sliced

1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion

Lemon wedge (optional)

Prepare potatoes by grilling or par-boiling and roasting.

Season halibut with salt and pepper, and dust lightly with flour. Heat a very small amount of oil in a pan and saute until golden brown on both sides (approximately two minutes per side). Remove from the pan and place in a warm oven.

Saute the bacon, apple and onion in the same pan for about two minutes. Place the potatoes in the center of the plate. Pour the bacon-apple-onion mixture over the potatoes. Place the halibut on top. Add a squeeze of lemon, if desired.
