step 1

ingredients

instructions Preheat oven to 375F.
step 2

ingredients 1 28-oz can Whole San Marzano Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Kosher Salt
1/4 cup Basil Leaves (torn)

instructions In a colander, drain the tomatoes. Transfer to a 9x9 baking dish, drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt. Toss lightly. Roast for 20 minutes, until tomatoes begin to caramelize. Remove from oven and set aside. Once cooled slightly, toss with basil leaves. Taste and check for seasoning.
step 3

ingredients 4 6-oz Halibut Filets
1/4 cup Flour
2 Large Eggs
1 cup Pistachios (ground in food processor)
Salt and Pepper

instructions Create a dredging station by placing three dishes in a row. One with flour, the next with the eggs, beaten lightly, and the third with the ground pistachios. Season each fillet with salt and pepper, then coat each side lightly with flour, then dip in egg. Allow the excess egg to drip off and then dip in pistachios to form a crust. Transfer to clean plate.
step 4

ingredients 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

instructions Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, almost smoking, place fillets in oil, cooking in batches if necessary. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side.
step 5

ingredients Basil leaves for garnish

instructions Serve each fillet with roasted tomatoes. Garnish with basil.
