Ingredients

6 Tbs. butter (3 Tbs., softened)

1 sun-dried tomato packed in oilve oil, finely chopped

1 Tbs. finely chopped scallion

1 Tbs. finely chopped garlic

salt and pepper

1 lb. small new potatoes

4 halibut fillets (6-8oz. each)

2 Tbs. flour

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, sun-dried tomato, scallion and garlic; season with salt and pepper.

In a large sauce-pan, add the potatoes and enough salted water to cover. Cover and bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes.

Drain, then smash the potatoes with 1 Tbs. butter; season with salt and pepper.

Season the fish with salt and pepper, then coat lightly with the flour. In a large non-stick skillet, melt the remaining 2 Tbs. butter over medium heat. Add the fish and cook, turning once, until golden and firm to the touch, about 7-8 minutes total.

Transfer the fish to 4 serving plates along with the potatoes and top with the tomato-scallion butter.

Serve with the steamed asparagus.
