Pan roasted halibut is golden and tender. Fava beans and asparagus pair nicely with the fish, this dish is full of flavor.

Ingredients

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup shelled fava beans
3/4 lb. pencil asparagus, tips cut into 1-in. pieces, stems cut into bite-size pieces
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 1/2 lb. skinless, boneless halibut fillet (3/4-in.thick), cut into 4 pieces
3 tbsp. thinly sliced shallots
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup vegetable stock
3 tbsp. unsalted butter

2. Add asparagus stems and tips to boiling water and cook for 3 min. Drain and transfer to ice water; drain and set aside.

4. Remove pan from oven, set fish aside on plate; return pan to stove over med.-high heat. Add shallots, wine, and broth. Raise heat to high and bring to a boil; let boil until slightly reduced, about 3 min.
