Ingredients:
- 4 halibut fillets, each about 6 oz.
- 3/4 tsp. hot paprika
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 4 cups Ratatouille
Directions:
Sauté the fish
Season the halibut fillets on both sides with the paprika, salt and pepper. In a large fry pan over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the fillets and cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.
Add the ratatouille
Spoon the ratatouille around the halibut fillets in the pan. Cover, reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring the ratatouille once or twice to prevent scorching and to heat evenly, until the ratatouille is heated through and the fish fillets are opaque throughout, about 4 minutes more. Divide the halibut and ratatouille among 4 plates and serve immediately. Serves 4.

Just for the halibut...
I found this recipe to be easy to prepare and very flavorful, although you have to like "spicy" food to enjoy this dish. The hot paprika (csipos) works well with the fish and the ratatouille. I served this with garlic polenta on the side. You can make the polenta and ratatouille in advance, and I think this is perfect for guests.
