Seared Halibut with Microgreens Salad
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine kiwi, cucumber, strawberries, lemon juice, oil, salt and black pepper, to taste. Cover and set aside.

Add halibut and cook, turning once, for 4 minutes per side, just until flaky and opaque throughout. Remove from heat, cover skillet and set aside.
