Ingredients
- 3 shallots, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons sherry or tarragon vinegar
- Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
- Six 6-ounce skinless halibut fillets
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Chive Oil

Directions
- In a medium bowl, combine the shallots with the vinegar and lemon zest and let marinate at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Light a grill or preheat a grill pan and oil it lightly. In a glass baking dish, coat the fish with 2 tablespoons of the Chive Oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Stir 2 tablespoons of the Chive Oil into the shallots. Add the mint, tarragon, parsley, basil, watercress and nasturtiums, season with salt and pepper and toss gently to coat.
