Balsamic-Glazed Halibut

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon firmly packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 pieces halibut (each about 1 in. thick and 5 to 6 oz.)
• 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

1. 1. In a bowl, mix vinegar, brown sugar, and mustard.
2. 2. Rinse halibut and pat dry. Brush lightly all over with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add fish and cook until browned on the bottom, about 4 minutes.
3. 3. Turn pieces over. Spoon vinegar mixture over browned sides. Lower heat and cook until fish is opaque but still moist-looking in the center (cut to test), 4 to 5 minutes longer. Transfer to plates.
