From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes approximately 45 minutes. Head to the store and pick up lemons, halibut fillets, kosher salt and pepper, and a few other things to make it today. To use up the lemons you could follow this main course with the Blackberry Lemon Chess Pie w/ Honey Jumbleberry Sauce. How I won the SF Food Wars – Pie or Die Competition as a dessert. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free, primal, fodmap friendly, and pescatarian diet.

Instructions

Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 400F. Slicing crosswise, cut six 1/4-inch rounds from the center of one of the lemons. Repeat with the remaining lemon. Squeeze the juice from the ends of the lemons into a small bowl (youll need 4 tsp.) and set aside. Arrange the lemon rounds in slightly overlapping pairs on a heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Set two sage leaves on top of each fillet and then wrap each fillet with a slice of prosciutto. The prosciutto should form a belt, enclosing the leaves but leaving the fish exposed at either end.

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. One wine you could try is Zind-Humbrecht Calcaire Pinot Gris. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 46 dollars.
