Ingredients
- 4 cups reduced-sodium ready-to-use vegetable broth
- ½ bunch fresh thyme, leaves and stems
- 12 oz halibut
- ⅛ tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan or high-sided skillet over high heat, add the broth, thyme, and pepper and bring to a boil. Add the halibut, making sure it is completely covered by the liquid, adding water or more broth if needed to cover it completely. Return to a boil over high heat.
- Cook the halibut for 1 minute, then remove from the heat and cover. Let the halibut poach until opaque and the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees, 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, carefully remove the fish from the pan and let it cool. Discard the thyme and the cooking liquid.
- Slice the halibut into 6oz pieces and allow to slightly cool. Serve warm.
