The beginning of the workweek is always on the strenuous side, so keep Monday nights as effortless as possible by selecting a swift dinner recipe that calls for ingredients you've already got on hand.
By doubling up on the amount of halibut and clams that you needed for last night's meal, you won't have to worry about hitting up the supermarket again.
Take a stab at a stress-free riff on cioppino, the classic San Francisco stew.

There's no better way to really catch Fall fever than to prepare a steamy seafood dish that also incorporates the season's top produce picks.
For dinner tonight, sauté aromatic leeks and unconventional hen of the woods mushrooms in butter, add broth, and simmer halibut and clams in liquid until just barely cooked.
The resulting meal, which is delicate both in texture and flavor, makes for an enjoyable end to the weekend.

After buying some fine-looking frozen halibut at Trader Joe's last week, I went in search of an unexpected but healthy way to prepare it. I turned to the spiral-bound basic wok cookbook I recently purchased along with my new wok. Since it imparts a lot of flavor with not a lot of oil, a wok is a great piece of equipment to have in your healthy kitchen.

If you're looking to impress on a weeknight, then this seasonal entrée will certainly do the trick. The halibut takes on a French twist when it's served over a bed of sweet potatoes and lentils, and topped with mustard-tarragon sauce. Save a little extra sauce, whisk with olive oil and toss with fresh greens — et voilà!

With the inevitable change of seasons, it's time to start thinking about comforting, soothing meals like this halibut.
Served in a shallow bowl with a fragrant green tea broth — so delicious you'll be drinking every last bit — and an assortment of Asian vegetables, this fish dish is filling, healthy, and flavorful. A helping of quinoa acts as a hearty side dish.

My first foray into poaching fish (Salmon with Yogurt Curry Sauce) was such a success I decided to branch out.
This poached halibut recipe is mild, lovely and features fennel, which is one of my favorite flavors. Halibut is a great fish to add to your diet.

When planning the menu for your wedding, it's important to remember what time of year the ceremony will take place in. It's tempting to want to incorporate Spring's asparagus and strawberries into the menu, but Elena's wedding will take place in October, a time when neither asparagus or strawberries are in season.
Thus this menu features seasonal twists on classic, yet sophisticated dishes that highlight some of Sean and Elena's favorite foods.

Poaching is a delicious technique when applied to fish. Simmered lightly in dry white wine, this halibut is delicate, flaky, and flavorful. A drizzle of chive butter adds a rich finish.

I was checking out the posts on TeamSugar when I came across haute77's post about her Halibut alla Fiorentina. I must admit, my jaw nearly hit the ground. This dish looks so delicious — her hubby takes great pics!

Using store-bought salad dressing as a quick fix marinade makes mid-week meals a snap. Tonight's fish is drowned in a bath of sundried tomato salad dressing before being rapidly steamed in a foil packet in the oven. The best thing about this meal — besides the fact that it comes together in minutes — is that no pots, pans, or plates are needed.
