Halibut with pomegranate and fennel - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute halibut with other firm, white fish like cod, sea bass, or even tilapia. Adjust cooking time slightly depending on the thickness of the fillet.
Celery or thinly sliced onion can be used as a fennel substitute, although they won't provide the same anise-like flavor. Consider adding a pinch of anise seed for a similar aroma.
Store leftover cooked halibut in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The fish may become slightly drier upon reheating.
Freezing is not recommended as the sour cream may separate and the texture of the fish and fennel can change. It's best enjoyed fresh.
Yes, you can use a dairy-free sour cream alternative made from cashews or soy for a similar creamy texture. Coconut cream (the thick part from a refrigerated can) can also work, but may add a slight coconut flavor.
Roasted asparagus, steamed green beans, or a simple salad with a lemon vinaigrette complement the flavors of the halibut with pomegranate and fennel nicely.
This recipe is already relatively low in carbohydrates. To reduce carbs further, omit the orange juice or use a sugar-free alternative. Be mindful of the carbs in the sour cream alternative if you are using one.
Gently reheat the halibut in a pan over low heat with a splash of water or broth to prevent it from drying out. You can also microwave it in short intervals, checking frequently to avoid overcooking.
While the recipe does not call for any specific herb, adding some thyme or dill can enrich the flavors. If using dried herbs, reduce the amount by half compared to fresh herbs, as they have a more concentrated flavor.
