1 pound Halibut Filet 1 inch thick
1 tsp olive oil
1/3 cup sundried tomatoes (in olive oil) chopped fine
2 Tbl pesto sauce
2/3 cup whipping cream
Salt and Pepper to taste

Season the fish with salt and pepper to taste. In a large Teflon skillet on medium high heat, fry the fish in the olive oil. 5 minutes on each side for a 1 inch thick filet. DO NOT OVERCOOK THE FISH! Remove the fish and set aside on a warm plate. Remove pan from heat and add the pesto sauce, sundried tomatoes and the cream. Return to heat and stir until incorporated. Plate the fish and pour the sauce over the top.

A nice presentation for this dish is to steam a bunch of asparagus. Plate about five or six spears on a plate and place the fillet on top of the asparagus. Then pour the sauce over the top. :food:

Sounds good. What pesto would you make for that to add to the sauce?
