Ingredients

    2 lbs. Hallibut fillet
    1/2 cup light or fat free sour cream
    1/2 cup parmesean cheese
    1/2 cup chives
    1 tsp. fresh dill
    salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 360 degrees.
Spray glass baking dish with no-stick spray.
Rinse Halibut filet(s), pat dry with paper towel and place in dish.
Chop up chives and dill.
Mix together sour cream, dill, chives, and 1/3 Cup of the Parmesean cheese.
Spoon mixture over the Halibut and bake in oven for 15-25 minutes depending on thickness of fillet.
If it looks like there is a lot of water around the fish, (can happen depending on which sour cream you use), using a turkey baster suction out excess water around the fish.
Sprinkle remaining parmesean cheese over the top of the sauce and broil until browned, about 5 minutes.
Makes 4 4oz. servings.
The extra sauce is great drizzled over steamed baby red potatoes.

    Very easy, very tasty. I was out of chives, so I substituted some green onions, which turned out pretty well. The parmesan/sour cream mix was delicious. I used fat free sour cream and didn't have any water problems. - 4/6/09

    This recipe may be delish, but there is definately a problem with the calorie count. 16 oz of halibut has over 600 cal. on it's own, which is over 150 cal per serving, and this recipe calls for 2 lbs which would be over 300 cals per serving. - 1/21/10

    This recipe was WAY too easy to be this delish! I used tilapia and dried dill (extra because it's so good!) and it came out great! Nice crispy top; I didn't have the water problem. Boiled some red potatoes, topped with extra sour cream sauce, and served with steamed broccoli! Thanks for this one! - 2/10/10

    This was really excellent. I used halibut steaks that were 2-3 inches thick so I baked it for about 45 minutes @ 360. I will definitely use this again and I think it would be awesome with most any kind of fish. - 8/9/09

    This is really easy to make and is so delicious. One of my faves. The sauce works on other fish, as well. I've tried it on mahi mahi and tilapia, and it all comes out awesome. - 7/12/13

    This was incredible! I was looking for a new Halibut recipe and I found it! I did not have any chives, so I substituted dried sweet basil and i also used dried dill. It would have been even better with fresh. Sorry to hear the calorie count is not correct, but it was delish!!! - 10/5/15

    Unfortunately member "LISABRUCAY" is correct. Halibut is much higher in calories than this. There is something WRONG with the calorie count. SORRY. - 6/4/13

    I do not like sour cream, so I was a little hesitant to try this. Since it was rated so well we went ahead and prepared the recipe exactly as described.....it was delicious!!! I will also use this on other fish besides halibut in the future. - 4/9/12

    This was excellent. We really enjoyed it and we're not huge fish eaters. Very easy and delish! - 3/22/12

    If you look on the recipe ingredients used for calculating the nutritional data, only a half pound of halibut is used by mistake. It also sounds like there is extra sauce. I did a remake using 1.5 pounds fish and halved the sauce ingredients. Then the dish is in the 240-300 range (depends on fish). - 2/11/12

    For years I have made Halibut Olympia when feeling really overindulgent - but this gets the same flavor with MUCH less fat! I love it! - 12/20/11

    I served this for a dinner gathering last night and it was a hit! All of the adults and kids LOVED it!

    I'm not a big fan of onion/chives, so I only used about a 1/3 of what the recipe called for, which for me was perfect. Next time I think I will double the dill to add just a bit more flavor.

    Suprisingly, the kids liked it more than my husband and I did! However, it was easy to make and very flavourful, so I give it two thumbs up. - 2/18/09

    My mart was out of hallibut so I used cod, it was so delicious! Tastes way richer and more sinful than it is. - 2/4/09

    Left the Parmesan out because I didn't have any, but the sour cream and dill on the halibut was delicious. Served the halibut with edamame and parmesean couscous.... yum! - 12/7/08

    My husband didn't want me to make this because he thought it "sounded gross". We just finished eating it and he can't stop talking about how "AWESOME!!!" it was told me that we MUST have it again. It really was a great dish. Thank you!!! - 8/9/08
