Baked Halibut Topped with Zucchini, Tomato, Dill, and Feta
I bought some halibut recently and decided to bake it topped with a mixture of Mediterranean flavors. This baked halibut topped with zucchini, tomato, dill, and feta recipe was simple to make and tasted wonderful. I loved that this dish was hearty and filling yet healthy. My husband and I enjoyed this recipe while my son thought the fish was good but didn’t like the topping and my daughter didn’t like any of it. You win some, you lose some.

How to Make Baked Halibut Topped with Zucchini, Tomato, Dill, and Feta:
