This baked halibut with orzo, spinach, and cherry tomatoes is a vibrant, high-protein meal that balances light Mediterranean flavours with satisfying textures. The meaty halibut fillets are gently roasted until tender, then paired with citrus-flecked orzo and sweet, burst tomatoes. It is an elegant yet simple dish that relies on quality extra-virgin olive oil and fresh lemon to enhance the natural sweetness of the white fish.
Ideal for a nutritious mid-week supper, this recipe provides a balanced combination of lean protein and slow-release carbohydrates. The addition of baby spinach provides a boost of iron, while the garlic-infused pasta ensures a savoury depth that complements the delicate fish. Serve this colourful dish immediately with a final crack of black pepper for a restaurant-quality meal at home.
