Halibut with Saffron Tomatoes and Fennel Recipe

1 large shallot, sliced
1 fennel bulb, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tablespoons butter
2 pints cherry tomatoes
Pinch of saffron threads
1/2 teaspoonsea salt
1/4 freshly ground pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
2 halibut filets (skin removed)

Melt the butter in a skillet and add the shallot, fennel, and garlic. Stir and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.

Add the tomatoes, saffron, salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 4 more minutes.

Add the fish filets, nestling them on top of the tomatoes. Season each one with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium low and cover. Let cook for 6-10 minutes until fish is opaque. (The timing will depend of the size of your filet and your stovetop.)

Divide between two plates and serve immediately.

Yum! Enjoy!
