Herb and Garlic Crusted Halibut with Oven Baked Ratatouille
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 2 tablespoons chopped chervil
- 2 tablespoons chopped tarragon
- 4 cloves chopped garlic
- 1 tablespoon chopped lemon zest
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs
- 4 (6-ounce) halibut fillets
- Salt and pepper
- 2 large red onions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic, finely sliced
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 teaspoons each, finely chopped, fresh thyme, rosemary, parsley, combined in a bowl
- 1 large eggplant, sliced 1/2-inch thick

- 2 red bell peppers, seeded and cut into eighths
- 2 yellow bell peppers, seeded and cut into eighths

- Brush each fillet with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, dredge, skin side down in the herb/bread mixture.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saute pan until almost smoking.
