Dry Halibut filets using paper towel gently pressing all sides. Place the filets on a plate and season generously with salt on all sides 2.

Once filets becomes crispy and the fish is mostly opaque, the fillets should easily release from the pan (this should be about 4 more minutes, depending on the thickness.) Turn the fillets over and cook for another minute or so, until the fish is completely opaque. The internal temperature should register 30°F for medium, (about 7 minutes total) or 140°F for a well-done fillet of fish (a minute longer). 5. Transfer the fish to a platter and sprinkle some parsley over the fillets. Serve with a simple salad and the caramelized lemon halves. Squeeze some lemon juice over the halibut and enjoy!
