Halibut, Broccoli and Tomato Casserole

Halibut, Broccoli and Tomato Casserole is a lovely twist on a normal casserole. Using seafood instead of meat gives a perfect companion to the broccoli and tomatoes. I like to use halibut as its reasonably priced, full of flavour and firm to withstand the cooking. Serve as a main dish on its own or with a salad.
