  6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the halibut is cooked through.
  7. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

For the Sweet Potato Fries:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into thin strips resembling fries.

  6. Spread the fries in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are crispy and lightly browned.

For the Green Beans:

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Add the green beans and cook for about 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
  3. Drain the cooked green beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and help retain their vibrant green color.
  4. Drain the green beans again and pat them dry with a paper towel.
  5. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  6. Add the green beans to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are heated through.
