How to make Roasted Niçoise salad with halibut

1. Place a rimmed baking tray on the centre rack of the oven and preheat to 230°C (fan).

2. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, artichokes, 3 tablespoons of oil, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of pepper together until well coated.

3. Arrange the mixture in an even layer on the preheated baking tray and roast for about 18 minutes, tossing once halfway through, until nicely browned.

4. In the same bowl, combine the green beans, olives, 1 tablespoon of oil, and ¼ teaspoon of salt, and toss until evenly coated.

5. Season the fish on both sides with ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper, then coat with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil.

6. Remove the baking tray from the oven and push the potatoes and artichokes to one side, taking up about a third of the tray.

7. Place the fish on another third of the tray, then add the bean mixture to the remaining third.

8. Roast for about 8 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.

9. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of pepper.

10. Flake the halibut into pieces and transfer to a serving platter.

11. Serve with the roasted vegetables and sauce alongside, and top with fresh basil.
