Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, melted butter, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well until resembling wet sand.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place your halibut fillets on the baking sheet, spaced apart. Pat the fillets dry with a paper towel.
  4. Generously press the prepared crust onto each halibut fillet, aiming for a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
