INGREDIENTS:

Serves 4

4 (6-ounces) pieces Alaskan halibut fillet, about 1

½ cup mayonnaise

¼ cup crumbled feta

¼ cup mint, finely chopped

3 tablespoons dill, finely chopped

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

2 lemons, thinly sliced

METHOD:

Preheat oven broiler, and position oven rack to middle or low position, leaving about 8 in from the heat.

Line a sheet pan with foil and lightly oil. Place lemon slices on pan and lay fish on top. Season with salt and white pepper.

Whisk together mayonnaise, feta, herbs, and lemon juice and spread over top of fish. Put 2 lemon slices on center of each fillet. Drizzle lemon slices with olive oil.
