If you don’t have any fresh salsa on hand, that takes just a few minutes to whip up, as well. Just throw some tomatoes, red onion, a little bit of cucumber, some jalapeno, and cilantro in your food processor and pulse it a few times to dice everything up into a quick and tasty salsa.
After that, you can just top all of your ingredients on your halibut, cover with some aluminum foil, and within 15 minutes you will have a complete melt-in-your-mouth dinner with minimal effort. The flavor is out of this world, and you barely had to pick up a knife!
The salsa adds tons of flavor (and veggies!) and keeps the halibut nice and moist. The artichoke hearts add some bulk, making this the perfect light but satisfying meal.
It’s great for warm nights when you something light and refreshing. You can even try making this on the grill by making aluminum foil packets instead of using the baking dish. There’s nothing like simple clean-up after a simple meal!
This is the perfect dish for a quick, effortless weekday dinner and makes great leftovers for an easy lunch the next day. It’s also fancy enough to serve up as a dinner party meal. Let your guests think you slaved away in the kitchen for this amazing “gourmet” Paleo meal!
