step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.
step 2
Thinly slice the fennel (1) (reserving the green fennel fronds), remove the core, and add to a baking tray. Squeeze over the juice of one of the lemons (1) and add the squeezed lemon halves to the tray along with a good glug of olive oil and a sprinkling of sea salt. Toss together.
step 3
Place the halibut fillets (2) on top and season with salt and pepper. Dot the butter (50 g) in and around the fish and fennel.
step 4
Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the fish is tender and the fennel is translucent.
step 5
Meanwhile, blitz the sourdough (1 slice) and hazelnuts (50 g) in a food processor to form breadcrumbs. Stir in the lemon zest and most of the parsley (1 handful). Season with salt and pepper. Heat a splash of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and add the hazelnut mix. Pan-fry for 5-6 minutes, until golden brown.
step 6
Serve the fish and fennel with the nutty breadcrumbs on top, squeezing the lemons from the tray over the fish, a handful of watercress (2 handfuls), and the remaining lemon (1), cut into wedges.
