This easy entrée offers up a satisfyingly complex mix of flavors in just 20 minutes. Letting the pan preheat for a minute before adding the halibut helps the fish get a jumpstart on browning. The fresh herbs are offer a fresh complement to the small hit of heat from the sambal oelek in the salty-sweet dressing. Sambal oelek is a spicy, chunky red chile paste with origins in Indonesia. It gets its intense sweet, fiery flavor from a simple combination red chile peppers, salt, and vinegar. It’s available in most grocery stores in the Asian food section. Serve the fish over brown rice noodles or wild rice.
