Method
1.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.
Season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper. Press chopped pistachios onto the top of each fillet to form a crust.
3.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the fillets pistachio side down, and sear for about 3 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
4.
Carefully flip the fillets and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
5.
While the fish is baking, pour pomegranate juice into a small saucepan over medium heat. Add honey and thyme, bringing to a simmer.
6.
Stir in the cornstarch mixture and continue to simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
7.
Serve the baked halibut drizzled with pomegranate reduction, garnished with fresh pomegranate seeds and chopped parsley.
