Instructions
Using vegetable peeler, remove peel (orange part only) of clementines. Chop peel (reserve flesh for another use).
Combine chopped clementine peel, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and sea salt in small bowl. Stir in extra-virgin olive oil and set gremolata aside. DO AHEAD Gremolata can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.Preheat oven to 350F. Using vegetable peeler, remove peel of clementine in four 2-inch-long strips (orange part only).
Cut four 12-inch squares parchment paper.
Place halibut fillet in center of each parchment paper square.
Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Drizzle halibut lightly with olive oil.
Place 1 clementine peel strip, cut side up, on each halibut fillet. Bring 2 edges of parchment paper together along long side of fish fillet and fold parchment edges together 3 to 4 times. Tuck both remaining edges of parchment underneath fillet to create packet and place parchment packet on rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with remaining fish fillets. DO AHEAD Halibut packets can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill on rimmed baking sheet.
Bake fish just until opaque in center, about 18 minutes (to check doneness, unwrap packet and insert fork in fillet).
Remove rimmed baking sheet from oven. Unwrap fish.
Place halibut fillets on plates, spoon gremolata over, and serve.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Halibut. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. You could try Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 26 dollars per bottle.

Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio
A pale straw yellow. Clean, crisp fragrance with intense yet elegant hints of quince. Fresh, harmonious fruit set off by slight sweetness with a long finish full of delicate, tangy flavor.
