Ingredients
1 pound grape tomatoes, halved
½ cup finely diced red onion
5 flat anchovies, canned in oil, drained
3 large garlic cloves, crushed, divided
½ teaspoon salt, divided
Coarsely ground black pepper
4 (6-ounce) fresh or frozen halibut steaks
4 (3⁄4-inch thick) slices good crusty bread
½ cup julienned fresh basil leaves
2. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet. Add tomatoes, onion, anchovies and 2 crushed garlic cloves; stir. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until thick, about 5 minutes. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Keep warm.
3. Stir together remaining olive oil, crushed garlic clove and salt. Brush fish with half the oil mixture. Place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes, or until fish turns opaque and flakes easily.
4. Brush both sides of bread slices with remaining oil mixture. Toast in oven until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
5. Place a bruschetta on each plate. Top with tomato mixture and fish. Sprinkle with basil. Serves 4.
