Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season halibut with salt and pepper.
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups salted water to a boil.
Add quinoa, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.
Remove from heat; set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Cook fillets until golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Remove fillets from pan (reserve pan with any oil in it).
Place fish in an ovenproof dish and bake 8 to 10 minutes or until just cooked through (a paring knife will easily go through fish).
To pan, add ginger, bok choy, edamame, shiitakes, and snow peas; reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes or until the shiitakes begin to soften.
Add green tea, soy sauce, and honey. Cook until edamame are tender, about 3 minutes longer.
Place some broth and vegetables in each of four shallow bowls. Top with fish fillet and garnish with basil leaves.
Season quinoa with salt if necessary and serve on the side in separate serving bowls.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Halibut works really well with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. 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 St. Michael-Eppan Anger Pinot Grigio. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 23 dollars per bottle.
St. Michael-Eppan Anger Pinot Grigio
Depending on the soil and microclimate, Pinot gris varies from a simple everyday wine all the way up to absolute top growths. The warm, sun-exposed vineyards of the Anger sites, with their loamy limestone gravel soils, are a textbook example. The Anger Alto Adige Pinot Grigio has a noble structure, nice balance and fine acidity – making it an absolute pleasure to drink. The strong white goes well with fish and fish soup, guinea fowl breast or veal fillet.
