Halibut with Grapefruit and Orange Sauce

Approx. 440 Calories per serving. Recipe makes 1 serving.

A coworker has grapefruit trees and has brought in several huge baskets full of them. I have tried to be a good coworker to her, so I "forced" myself to take home several (20!!) grapefruits. Some of them were getting a bit soft, so I decided to cut them into segments so I wouldn't have to deal with the peel each time I wanted to eat one. If you don't know how to segment a grapefruit, there is a great video HERE.

Ingredients
  • 6 oz. halibut
  • 1/2 Tbs olive oil
  • 1 oz white wine
  • 1 small grapefruit (approx. 1 cup slices w/ juice)
  • 1 small orange (approx. 1/4 cup slices w/ juice)
  • 1 sprig cilantro
  • 1 green onion
  • black pepper, to taste

Directions
  1. Peel, pith, and segment the grapefruit and orange, capturing juices.
  2. Chop cilantro and green part of green onion.
  3. Mix herbs with the fruit segments.
  4. Add oil and fish to a skillet. Cover and heat on medium for about 4 minutes.
  5. Season fish with black pepper and flip.
  6. Add grapefruit mixture and a dash of white wine.
  7. Uncover the skillet and heat on high, until fish is done and liquid has evaporated to desired consistency.
  8. Remove fish and serve with grapefruit sauce.
