Halibut Piccata
4 [6-ounce] halibut filets, skin removed and pat dry (You can sub any white, flakey fish)
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
1 tbsp almond flour
2 tbsp tapioca flour
2 tbsp avocado oil
1/2 cup white wine (sub chicken broth if whole30)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp capers, drained
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 tbsp butter (sub ghee if whole30)
parsley, for garnish
Season both sides of the halibut filets with kosher salt and pepper.
On a plate or wide mouth bowl, add the almond flour, tapioca flour, a pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Mix to combine. Dredge the fish on all sides and shake off excess.
Heat oil over medium-high heat in a non stick skillet. Sear fish on each side until golden brown, crisp crust forms and fish is cooked through, about 3 mins one each side. Transfer cooked fish to a wire rack and reduce heat in the skillet to medium.
Add the wine and scrape up any brown bits and cook until the wine has reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, capers and lemon juice and stir to combine. Melt butter into the sauce then remove from heat.
Spoon the sauce over fish and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!
