Salsa Verde:
4 large tomatillos, husks removed, rinsed, and halved
1 lime, juiced
2 garlic cloves, peeled
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup diced white onion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves
Fish:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 (6 ounce) halibut fillets
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pound sugar snap peas
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped chives

1
Preheat the broiler. Place the tomatillos, cut side down, on a small rimmed baking sheet. Broil for about 5 minutes, until charred all over. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
2
Place the tomatillos, lime juice, garlic, jalapeno, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in the onion and cilantro. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
3
Preheat the oven to 375u00b0F. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the halibut fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the fillets to the pan and sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
4
Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the snap peas and cook for 2 minutes. Transfer the snap peas to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, and chives in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Drain the sugar snap peas and toss with the vinaigrette.
5
To serve, place a large spoonful of salsa verde on each of four plates. Top each plate with a halibut fillet and some snap peas.
