Ingredients

1/2 Cup fresh Parsley Leaves

1/2 Cup fresh Basil Leaves

1/2 Cup Pine Nuts

2 Tbs. Olive Oil, more or less

Kosher Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper

4 4-to 6-ounce thick Fillets of Halibut, Cod or other white-fleshed Fish

2 or 3-ounces thinly sliced Prosciutto

2 Tbs. Butter, or more oil

Directions

Heat oven to 450 degrees.

In a small food processor, combine herbs with pine nuts, enough olive oil to make a thick paste, salt and pepper. (Alternatively, chop everything fine and combine in a bowl.)

Season fillets with salt and pepper.

Lay two slices of prosciutto on board, slightly overlapping like fish scales.

Smear prosciutto with a layer of herb mixture, then lay fish in center and wrap it up (with the prosciutto.)

Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes; add butter.

When foam subsides, cook fish for a minute on each side, then roast in oven until tender, 5 to 10 minutes depending on thickness.

Fillets are done when a thin-bladed knife passes through thickest point with little resistance.
