  • 1/2teaspoonfreshly ground black pepper,divided
  • 1tablespoon almond flour

Instructions

  • Season both sides of the halibut filets with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  • In a large, shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Dredge the fish on all sides and shake off any excess flour.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Sear the fish until a golden brown, crisp crust forms, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until the fish is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the cooked fish to a wire rack and reduce the heat to medium.
  • Add the wine, scraping 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 the butter into the sauce, then remove from heat.
  • Divide the fish among plates, spoon the sauce over each filet, and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!
