Pan-Seared Halibut with Beans, Basil, and Asparagus - 11.5g Carbs, 5g Fiber
  
  From: Vital Choice Seafood 
  Asparagus and basil give this simple, delicious recipe a spring-like 
  seasonal appeal.
  
  The beans add a distinctively Mediterranean flair and hearty, healthful
  substance that combines perfectly with light, flaky Halibut.
  
  Prep Time: 15 min
  Serves: 4 
  
  1 Tbsp organic extra virgin olive oil
  16 cippolini or pearl onions, trimmed and peeled
  1 tsp minced garlic
  1 lb asparagus spears, trimmed and cut in 2-inch pieces
  6 oz small fresh whole mushrooms, halved
  2 Tbsp fresh basil
  1 (15 to 19 oz can) cannelloni or favorite beans, drained and rinsed
  1 (14.5 oz can) low-fat chicken broth
  1 tsp soy sauce, if desired
  2 Tbsp organic extra virgin olive oil
  4 Alaskan Halibut fillet portions (6 oz each)
  1 1/2 Tbsp organic extra virgin olive oil
  1/2 tsp dried garlic
  1/2 tsp organic black pepper
   
  Saute onions in olive oil in heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high 
  heat until onions are translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic, 
  asparagus, and mushrooms; stir-fry 1 minute. Stir in basil, beans, 
  chicken broth, soy sauce, and butter; heat until butter is melted. 
  Remove from pan and keep warm.
  
  Wipe pan clean. Rinse thawed Halibut under cold water; pat dry with 
  paper towel. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Brush both sides of 
  halibut with oil. Place halibut in heated skillet and cook, uncovered, 
  about 3 to 4 minutes, until browned. Shake pan occasionally to keep 
  fish from sticking.
  
  Turn halibut over and season with garlic-pepper blend. Cover pan tightly 
  and reduce heat to medium. Cook an additional 6 to 8 minutes for frozen 
  halibut or 3 to 4 minutes for fresh/thawed fish. Cook just until fish 
  is opaque throughout.
  
  To serve, place each halibut portion in shallow pasta/soup bowl. Spoon 
  1 cup vegetables and broth over fish.
