This easy recipe for pan-fried pacific halibut with pomegranate relish will make your heart (and belly) sing its praises. Pacific halibut is a great high protein fish, bringing 30g of protein and only 1g of fat per 6-ounce serving — making it perfect for improving satiety and keeping you full for longer.
The Pacific halibut is topped with a beautiful pomegranate seed relish, bringing both a sweet and zesty spin to its mild flavor. Pomegranate also brings a boost of antioxidant-rich nutrients, like vitamin C and anthocyanins that provide their deep red color.
And to make it a full meal, roasted broccoli makes a perfect pair for this dish, bringing loads of fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants called sulforaphanes that help protect against cardiovascular disease and inflammation. The rich flavor of roasted broccoli is a delicious complement to the juicy, herbaceous pomegranate relish.
