rustic sheetpan arctic char with balsamic roasted tomatoes & shallot
____________________________________
I highly recommend you hunt for good arctic char - it's like a butterier version of traditional salmon. If it's hard to come by or out of budget, Atlantic salmon or steelhead trout are apt substitutes.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 4 oz arctic char filets
  • kosher salt and pepper
  • 8 plum (Roma) tomatoes, quartered
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2-3 shallots, diced
  • kosher salt and pepper (to taste)
  • grain or potato of choice, steamed vegetables, fresh basil, additional balsamic vinegar, to serve (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place arctic char filets on the prepared baking sheet and rub with salt and pepper until nicely coated.
  • In a bowl, toss together tomatoes, shallots, oil, balsamic, salt and pepper until thoroughly combined. Spoon overtop char filets, encouraging any additional dressing to drizzle atop the fish. Bake for 12-15 minutes until tomatoes start to wrinkle and fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from oven. Serve warm with sides of choice and a sprinkle of fresh basil leaves.
