ROASTED HALIBUT AND POTATOES WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Boil potatoes in well-salted water for 15 minutes, until tender. Rinse with cold water to cool, then cut each potato in half lengthwise.
• Transfer potatoes to shallow roasting pan, or rimmed baking sheet large enough to hold potato halves in 1 layer.
• Drizzle potatoes generously with 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil. Using your hands, massage the potatoes to coat with oil and turn potatoes cut-side up. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Roast potatoes, uncovered, until nicely browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
• As potatoes cook, prepare the fish: Season fish fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with garlic, rosemary, red-pepper flakes and crushed fennel seeds, if using. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then rub seasoning into fillets.
