Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F.

First, dry your halibut off with a paper towel. Then salt and pepper your halibut.

Next, clean the leek by cutting it in half-length wise and then rinse out the leaves, while still keeping it intact.
Cut the leek into thin slices, they should look like half circles. Set those aside.

Next, slice the onions into thin strips.

Next, use a cheese grater or a zester to take the yellow part of the lemon off and save it for cooking.

In a sauté heat a little olive oil until it is very fluid and add the onions, leeks, and lemon zest. Cook everything on medium low until the onions become caramelized and then turn the flame off and add the white wine and halibut.

Put the whole pan in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Serve once cooked thoroughly and to your liking.
